Alma IQ is an AI-powered skin analysis system that captures high-resolution images of your face and maps what is happening on and beneath the surface: pigment and sun damage, texture, fine lines, pores, redness and more. The software analyzes those images and produces a clear, visual report of your skin's strengths and concerns. It takes only minutes, is completely non-invasive, and involves no downtime whatsoever, just a quick photo session and a conversation about what the results mean.
At JuvyDerm Skin Care and Laser Centre in NE Calgary, the Alma IQ analysis is a $165 standalone service. Juvy Terbio, an aesthetic specialist with over 15 years of experience, reads your scan alongside a hands-on assessment, with medical oversight from Dr. Vanessa Terbio-Fernandez, a board-certified dermatologist. The scan often reveals early sun damage that Calgary's high-altitude, sunny climate leaves behind before it is visible to the naked eye, which helps us prioritize the right treatments in the right order. Then we rescan at intervals so you can see your progress objectively over time.
Please note: the Alma IQ AI skin analysis is $165. It is an optional add-on and is not included in the free consultation — your consultation is always free.
Why choose JuvyDerm
An objective map of your skin
High-resolution imaging plus AI analysis quantifies pigment, texture, pores, lines and redness, showing concerns that can be hard to spot in the mirror.
A truly personalized plan
Instead of guessing, your clinician uses your scan to prioritize treatments and products for your actual skin, which can help you spend on what will matter most.
Progress you can see
Follow-up scans compare directly against your baseline, so improvement from your treatments is tracked visually and objectively over time.
In-depth and effortless
The scan takes just minutes and involves no discomfort, needles or downtime of any kind — just a quick photo session and a clear, visual report.
What to expect
Book your Alma IQ scan ($165): a quick, in-depth skin map at our NE Calgary clinic, separate from the free consultation. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin if you can.
The scan: You position your face in the imaging system and it captures high-resolution photos from multiple angles in a few minutes. Nothing touches your skin.
Review and plan: Your clinician walks you through the visual report, explains what the AI found, and builds a prioritized treatment and skincare plan around it.
Track your progress: We typically rescan every few months or at treatment milestones, comparing new images to your baseline so you can see your skin's trajectory.

What it helps with
Frequently asked questions
How much does an Alma IQ skin analysis cost in Calgary?
At JuvyDerm, the Alma IQ AI skin analysis is $165. It is an optional, in-depth scan and is not included in the free consultation, though your consultation itself is always free. Financing is available through Medicard and Sezzle. Call (403) 460-2100 to book.
Is Alma IQ suitable for all skin tones and types?
Yes. The scan is a non-invasive imaging session, so it is safe and suitable for every skin tone, skin type and age. It simply photographs and analyzes your skin, and your clinician interprets the results in the context of your individual complexion.
What exactly does the analysis measure?
Alma IQ maps multiple dimensions of skin health, including surface and deeper pigment, sun damage, texture, fine lines and wrinkles, pore visibility and redness. The AI compiles these into a visual report your clinician reviews with you in plain language.
Do I have to commit to treatments after the scan?
No. Your consultation is free with no obligation, and the Alma IQ scan comes with a full walkthrough of your report. Many clients use it to understand their skin better, then decide if and when to start. Your plan is a recommendation, and the pace is always yours.
How often should I get rescanned?
Most clients rescan every three to six months, or at natural milestones like finishing a treatment series. Comparing scans over time shows how your skin is responding, and it can help us fine-tune your plan as seasons and goals change.
