History
The devices have become the worldwide standard for objective clinical diagnosis for dermatology (in clinical research and for the practical dermatologist) and in the R&D departments of cosmetic/pharmaceutical/raw material companies and independent testing laboratories undertaking efficacy testing and claim support. Due to their user friendliness and reasonable prices the instruments are not only used by large international companies but also by smaller and medium sized cosmetic companies to test their products at each stage of the development. Of course this is only a selection of the user groups. There are many others interested in the skin ( e.g. occupational health has found measuring the skin a useful way of predicting where the skin is at risk and thus preventing skin disease among workers), food industry etc. The first time skin physiological tests in space were done with the C+K devices.
Hundreds of scientific studies are available (see "Download").

- The C+K devices are used by the leading scientists worldwide as standard equipment.
- The devices are all easy to handle, with a quick measurement time and very economical.
- They are modular and can thus be easily adapted to meet your exact needs.
- The accuracy can be checked using easy check calibration sets for each probe.
- Convenient software allows transfer of all measurement data into data analysis for individual evaluations.
- C+K always offers a friendly and quick service.
Building on their know-how C+K has developed special measuring equipment for skin testing to promote cosmetic products or treatments at the point of sale, in aesthetic salons or at the dermatologist’s practice. The devices vary from small handheld units and flexible battery operated devices to sophisticated combined models with easy to use software to determine the needs of the skin and to recommend products.
Using scientific skin testing devices at the point of sale or in the salon or practice allow safe and credible cosmetic consultation with respect to the individual care products or treatments needed. The measurements can be done quickly and easily, even though the environmental conditions do not correspond to those of the scientific tests in the laboratories.
The tests reinforce the competence of the consultant and the customers feel more secure with the products they buy.
C+K have found from years of experience in this field that this service leads to a remarkable increase in sales (up to 30 % of increase of turnover), particularly when this tool is used effectively. When the skin type of the customer is known not only one single product but rather a complete set of products (e.g. cleansing, day- and night care and additional care) is sold. Such a service binds the customer to a brand and make her/him a regular customer.
Therefore the devices are used all over the world by estheticians, dermatologists and leading cosmetic manufactures not only in research and development but also at the point of sale.
