Honestly , you can used for anything you wished ... but if you worry about your skin ... a doctor in medicine should be a better option...

It works great on eyebrows. It has a light feature that allows you to actually see what you are doing.

Sir, I did some quick checking on your question.The short answer is no. I found a 2D scanner here at amazon you may want to consider. Here is the link...Metrologic Focus MS 1690-Omnidirectional, 1D/2D, Pre-owned, good condition, tested. Reads poorly printed or damaged barcodes. Black and USB.paste that link into your address bar to see the scanner listing.Regards,John. webmaster@surf-rite.com

I didn't find that it did much at all. I had to see my dermatologist to get better results. Good luck!

I have just recently tried it. I have been using it three times a week. I am happy with what I am seeing! Hope this helps!

I haven't tried this, but it may actually work to an extent. The Plugable microscope is not a good option for long term use of this type however. Lighting is not appropriate and focusing would be a pain. You'll need a compound biological microscope, so start saving the pennies. The micro world is amazing, so a decent microscope is a great investment. You won't regret it.

Hi Wordup, the flashlight does accentuate freckles and age spots really well. Seeing as how those are often caused by excessive exposure to UV light then I'd have to say yes, the flashlight does show UV skin damage.

I had one before, but it does not work well at all. The scan results is about 70% only.

It had worked well for me when I have used it for an eye exams.. I also use the UV Stylus for darker color eyes in near total darkness. I hope this helps.

Not really. This is more of a stationary magnifying glass. I use it to look at garden bugs up close, leaves, rocks, etc. You can view 3-dimensional objects with this, unlike a true microscope where you look at "2-dimensional" objects. I suppose you can look at slides with it (I have done this), but you'd be disappointed if you needed to see microscopic detail.

No, not exactly, but, it makes a similar product called" Scar Guard Scar Light", also sold on Amazon by the same seller. This specifically is made for dark spots especially from acne. They also sell "Scar Guard" for bruises, really to make them go away faster. All these products are excellent ! I would try it if I were you..

Didn't try that application, but I can not imagine that would work well, the item is not easy to get a simple image to scan correctly. I would not recommend it for that purpose.

Didn't know so I tried it on my own forehead. Reads a few degrees lower, best I could do was about 95 degrees. Don't know if that is an error in the unit or it's actually detecting that my skin surface is cool. BIG ISSUE I would not recommend pointed the laser anywhere near a child's eye.

Yes. Be forewarned that it WILL scar you for awhile so use with caution on your face. :)But your dermatologist would scar it too.

I have not attempted to use it in that manner. I am an orchid grower and use it to measure natural light as well as full spectrum grow light.

Absolutely!!! I have successfully used it on moles, skin tags, and even a wart. Please be aware that if it is a large mole, you may need to do the process more than once. I had a decent sized mole and after the first set of treatment, part of it came off and then in was a small mole. Lol So I repeated the process and the remaining mole came off. Understand that this process is very slow, just as it would be if you had them frozen off at the dermatologist. It takes several weeks and will scar. The scar will remain for several months, but WILL eventually fade away.

This is good for looking at small objects. I've used it at work for parts that are smaller than your fingernail. The part has to be fairly close to the lens in order for it to be focused. It works great for indoors because of the LED light on it. You may want something bigger (larger lens) for looking at flowers/plants in detail (like a larger magnifying glass perhaps).
