- Ensure a bright light source (white) in front of you.
- Ensure a plain background, preferably white.
- Avoid shadows on the skin.
- Zoom enough on to the skin. Avoid too much zooming that causes a blurred image.
- You can typically analyze any skin, though some tests may be relevant for specific areas such as the face.
