Science. Skin. Results.

A method, applied to your skin.

Upload one photo and answer a few questions. You get a preliminary read built on the Acne Balance Method, the framework Anastasiia Huk developed over years of clinical practice. It is a starting point, not a diagnosis. She confirms it in studio.

Start your analysis How it works

How it works

Four steps, and one of them is a person.

You upload one photo. Good light, no filter. Face or the area that breaks out.

We record what is visible. Type of breakouts, where they sit, redness, oil, texture, marks. Facts only. No guessing at what is under the surface.

Her method decides. Those facts run through the Acne Balance Method. The same skin always gets the same answer, and you can see which rule applied.

Anastasiia confirms it. A screen cannot see pore depth or what is forming beneath. A magnified assessment sets the real plan.

The framework

The Acne Balance Method

Acne is not one condition treated one way. The method works in stages, and the order matters more than the products.

Stabilization Calm the skin and repair the barrier before anything active. The most commonly skipped step, and the most common reason treatment fails.

Inflammation control Bring active breakouts down, without stripping the skin.

Congestion clearance Clear retained buildup once inflammation is settled.

Resistant correction Address stubborn texture and post-acne changes.

Maintenance Hold the result. Improvement is not the end of treatment.

Every stage has criteria for moving to the next. Skin that is not ready does not move forward.

Genetics loads the gun. Triggers pull it.

Under the hood

How the analysis works

Four things worth knowing about what happens between your photo and your result.

Constrained reading

The model may only report from a fixed list of observations. It cannot invent a value, and anything outside the list is rejected before it reaches you.

The method decides, not the model

The model never suggests treatment. It only reports what is visible. Her rules turn those observations into a stage and a plan.

The same skin, the same answer

The rules run in a fixed order, so identical observations always produce an identical result. No randomness between one reading and the next.

You can see the reasoning

Every result lists which rules applied. Nothing is decided in a place you cannot look.

The tool

Your preliminary read

A few questions, then one photo. Your answers stay in this browser session and are not saved anywhere.

Photo step Unlocks after the safety questions

Add your photo Good light, no filter, no makeup if you can.

Reading what is visible

Ready when you are.

We ask the safety questions first. If anything in them means a studio treatment is not right for you right now, we will tell you before asking for a photo.

One clear photo

Face the light, hold the camera steady, and include the area that breaks out. We read the surface only.

Something went wrong on our side.

We could not complete the analysis. Nothing was saved. Please try again.

The practitioner

Anastasiia decides.

The tool produces a preliminary read. It does not set your plan. Every result routes to a studio consultation, where a magnified assessment confirms the stage and what follows from it.

Why a person still decides

A photograph shows the surface. It cannot show pore depth, what is forming beneath, how your skin has responded to past treatment, or how it behaves under magnification. Those change the plan, and only an in person assessment can read them.
