Treating your skin problems with a phone is (soon) possible

In addition to playing the role of a camera, a stopwatch, a calculator or even a computer, our phone could soon become a kind of dermatologist at home. This is in any case the will of Samsung, which is preparing to present two innovative gadgets at the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) in Las Vegas. These connected objects, which respond to the sweet names of "Lumini" and "S-Skin", aim to identify the imperfections of our skin and help us eliminate them. An ambitious promise!

Spot our imperfections in one click

To use "
Lumini", just take a picture of his face. The device detects skin problems before they appear and transmits the information to a dedicated application. Freckles, dilated pores, wrinkles, redness, excess sebum… In one click, each user can find out what is happening under the surface of their skin. Lumini also recommends cosmetic products suited to individual problems and provides a remote consultation service with a dermatologist. The "
S-Skin" goes even further, since it is composed of a patch with micro-needles. The gadget measures the hydration of the skin, detects redness and spots, before penetrating the epidermis and spreading the care you need. Pretty crazy, right?

If these two gadgets tempt you, you will still have to wait until February to test them...
