PORE INDEX

What Is the Pore Index?

The Pore Index reflects how visible pores appear on the skin surface under normal lighting conditions. It focuses on the size, contrast, and distribution of pores as they contribute to overall skin texture and refinement.

This index is appearance-based and cosmetic only. It does not measure pore size physically, assess oil gland activity, or diagnose skin conditions.

Why the Pore Index Matters for Skin Appearance

Visible pores can strongly influence how smooth or refined the skin looks. Pore appearance may affect:

• Overall texture and surface uniformity
• How smooth or matte the skin appears
• The way light reflects across the skin surface
• How makeup applies and settles

When pores appear less prominent, skin often looks smoother and more polished, even without changes to tone or colour.

What Can Influence the Pore Index

Common, non-medical factors that may influence visible pore appearance include:

• Natural skin appearance type
• Visible oil or shine levels
• Skin hydration and surface smoothness
• Skincare routine consistency
• Lighting angle and shadowing

These factors influence how pores are perceived visually rather than indicating changes in skin structure.

How Mizics Estimates the Pore Index

Mizics analyses fine texture patterns and contrast transitions across visible skin areas. By identifying circular or irregular surface features, the system estimates pore-related appearance characteristics.

This estimation is completed within seconds using photo-based analysis and does not require storing your image.
