SMOOTHNESS INDEX

What Is the Smoothness Index?

The Smoothness Index reflects how even, refined, and uninterrupted the skin surface appears under normal lighting conditions. It focuses on the absence of visible roughness, bumps, or irregularities that may affect how polished the skin looks at a glance.

This index is appearance-based and cosmetic only. It does not assess tactile feel, measure physical roughness, or evaluate skin health in a medical sense.

Why the Smoothness Index Matters for Skin Appearance

Visible smoothness strongly influences how refined and well-cared-for skin appears. A smoother-looking surface can affect:

• How light reflects evenly across the skin
• The perception of softness and refinement
• The visibility of pores, fine lines, or texture
• How makeup or skincare products visually apply and blend

When smoothness appears high, the skin often looks more uniform and visually balanced, even if tone and colour vary naturally.

What Can Influence the Smoothness Index

Everyday, non-medical factors that may influence visible smoothness include:

• Skin hydration and moisture appearance
• Build-up of dead skin cells
• Consistency of exfoliation routines
• Environmental exposure such as wind or dryness
• Lighting direction and shadowing

These factors affect how smooth the skin appears, rather than indicating physical changes to the skin surface.

How Mizics Estimates the Smoothness Index

Mizics analyses micro-contrast, surface uniformity, and texture transitions across visible skin areas. By identifying interruptions or inconsistencies in the surface pattern, the system estimates smoothness-related appearance characteristics.

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