Skin Analysis and Consultation in Berlin-Mitte

Consultation & Analysis
A skin analysis answers one plain question: what does this skin need today, and what does it not need? At Inanna it comes first, before a Journey begins. We look at your skin, we listen, and we place what we see. Where it helps, we read the skin with Canfield VISIA® and the Biologique Recherche® Skin Instant Lab®, so that a first impression becomes something you can rely on.
The personal consultation Inanna Consult® lasts fifteen minutes, and its fee is credited in full toward your first visit. If you would rather begin from home, Inanna e-Consult® holds the same conversation by video, with the same credit. For a documented basis there is Inanna Skin360®, the in-depth skin analysis. For scalp and hair there is Inanna Hair360®. Once a Journey has begun, Inanna Check-Up® takes stock of what has changed.
What comes out of it is not a verdict on your skin but a quiet reference. The underlying tone every skin carries over the years we call the Inanna Grundton®, and we read it again and again rather than fixing it once. The consultation is led by the Meisterinnen des Hauses, the masters of the house. Inanna is the only CIDESCO-certified house in Berlin. The World Spa Award named it Germany's best day spa in 2024 and 2025.
Skin and Hair Analysis at Inanna
Some guests know exactly what they want. Others arrive with a question and would rather understand before deciding. This appointment is for them: a calm conversation in which we place your skin and your goals, and tell you what we would recommend, and equally what is not needed.
An analysis is a tool here, not a verdict. It shows a condition on one day, and its real value arrives later, in the comparison over time. What follows are the questions we are asked most often, answered the way we would answer them in the room.
How much does a skin analysis cost in Berlin?
Inanna Consult® costs €50 and is credited in full. The in-depth skin analysis Inanna Skin360® runs sixty minutes and the hair and scalp analysis Inanna Hair360® forty; both fees sit on the cards below. Inanna Check-Up® after a Journey is the one appointment that is not credited. What sits inside those sixty minutes is what the price is for: the standardised capture, five separate measurements, the interpretation in conversation, and a record that stays and is compared at the next appointment. A quick photograph is a different thing from a basis that holds over years.
Where can I get a professional skin analysis in Berlin?
In Berlin-Mitte, at Charlottenstrasse 19, in a private house for skin and hair. The appointment takes place in a room of its own, with no waiting area and no audience. What carries it, though, is not the address. Intake, capture, measurement and the reading of the scalp stand here in one house, in one method. To our knowledge no second non-medical house in Berlin brings them together. If you would rather talk first, begin with Inanna Consult®; if you want a documented basis, begin with Inanna Skin360®. Either way it is an appointment, not a sales situation.
What is the difference between Inanna Consult® and Inanna Skin360®?
Inanna Consult® is the conversation: fifteen minutes in which we look at your skin or your scalp, listen, and say what we would recommend and what is not needed. Inanna Skin360® is the measurement that goes with it: sixty minutes with VISIA® and the Skin Instant Lab®, producing a documented basis that can be compared year after year.
Does the hair analysis belong here too?
Yes. Inanna Hair360® reads scalp and hair density with Canfield D2 and the HairMetrix® workflow, without shaving. The appointment runs forty minutes. Anyone who wants both, skin and hair, combines it with Inanna Skin360®. What follows from a hair reading in the way of care sits on the hair and scalp page.
What happens during a skin analysis, and how long does it take?
It begins with a written intake. It asks about skin history and past treatments, and about what no device measures: sleep, strain, sun, nutrition, environment, and the care that actually happens at home. Then you arrive without make-up, or we take it off unhurriedly, in a room of your own. Then comes the capture in the booth, under constant light and with the same head position, then the probe readings. The result is shown sitting down, with the reading beside it. The ultraviolet image brings out pigment beneath the surface that no mirror shows. It can land hard, which is why it never stands alone. What a value means, and what it does not mean, we say before we speak about care. The images are yours. Inanna Skin360® runs sixty minutes, Inanna Hair360® forty, the consultation fifteen. No separate orientation is added, because an analysis is already the conversation.
What does a VISIA® skin analysis show?
VISIA® photographs the whole face under constant light, in standard, polarised and ultraviolet modes. It evaluates eight features: spots, wrinkles, texture, pores, UV spots, brown spots, red areas and porphyrins. It also brings forward what sits beneath the surface and cannot be seen in a mirror. It is a photograph with an evaluation, not a medical examination.
What does the Skin Instant Lab® measure?
Five probes take objective readings. They are hydration, water loss across the skin barrier, elasticity, pigment and sebum. The underlying methods are corneometry, TEWL measurement, cutometry, melanin absorption and photometric sebumetry. They have been used in skin research for decades and are described in the guidelines of the EEMCO group. What is measured is the condition on this particular day, not a fixed skin type.
Do skin analysis machines actually work, and how accurate are they?
Accurate enough to compare change, and not accurate enough to judge a person. A study published in 2023 found that the absolute scores are markedly more precise than the percentiles by which a skin is set against a reference group. A skin age derived from them can be several years out for an individual. So we read the absolute values, and we tell you where a number holds and where it does not.
What is an AI skin analysis?
An umbrella term covering very different things. Here, artificial intelligence works inside the HairMetrix® workflow. It counts hair density and calibre from a dermatoscopic image. The facial capture with VISIA® computes by documented imaging methods rather than by a learning model. And an app that scores a selfie is a diversion, not a measurement.
Is there such a thing as a free skin analysis?
At cosmetics counters and in pharmacies, often yes. A free analysis is almost always part of a sales conversation, which is legitimate and still a different thing from advice that has nothing to sell. Here the consultation is paid and credited in full, which comes to the same in the end and makes one difference: we are free to tell you that you need nothing.
Dermatologist or beauty institute for a skin analysis?
It depends on your question, and the cost follows from it. If it concerns moles, skin cancer screening, an investigation of hair loss, or blood values, that belongs in a doctor's practice, where it is a physician's service billed accordingly. If it concerns reading the condition of your skin, documenting it and deriving care from it, that is cosmetic work at a fixed price, and that is what we are here for.
Is a skin analysis worth it?
It is worth it if you intend to do something with it. A single reading is an interim position; its value comes from the comparison over time, because that is what shows whether a routine is holding. If your skin is calm and you are content, we will say that just as plainly.
How often should a skin analysis be repeated?
For most people a rhythm between six and twelve months holds, much like a dental check. Anyone following a course of sessions repeats at the shorter end of that range. Because every capture is made under the same conditions, the next appointment compares your skin and not the circumstances, which is the whole reason to repeat an analysis at all.
For scalp and hair density there is Inanna Hair360®, the house's own hair and scalp analysis. What follows from an analysis you decide calmly: whether it becomes a single Facial Journey or a longer course follows from what we have seen together, in keeping with the Inanna Method®. You can arrange an appointment through our booking page.
The house behind the care
An analysis here is not a result that decides about you; it is the beginning of a conversation. Every Journey in the house opens with a calm reading of the skin as it is on that day. Inanna Consult® is the appointment for anyone who wants that reading before deciding on anything.
Consultation and analysis are led by the Meisterinnen des Hauses, the masters of the house. Before a device measures anything, a hand reads the skin: its tension, its warmth, how it answers to touch. For that there is no reading on a scale. A measurement says what is. Only a practised hand says what it means, and what, in the context of everything else, it does not mean.
The instruments an analysis rests on have a provenance you can check. Canfield Scientific was founded in 1988 in Parsippany, New Jersey, and began with photographic documentation for dermatology and for drug trials. The German entity, Canfield Scientific GmbH, sits at Otto-Brenner-Strasse 203 in Bielefeld and is registered at the Amtsgericht Bielefeld under HRB 43069. The company holds a certified quality management system to ISO 13485:2016. VISIA® established the category of standardised facial capture around 2001. RBX® technology, which separates the red haemoglobin signature from the brown melanin signature, was granted as US patent 8,498,460 B2 on 30 July 2013, inventor Sachin V. Patwardhan.
Precise as the capture is, it has documented limits, and we would rather name them ourselves. A study on this appeared in 2023 in GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. It found the system's absolute scores markedly more precise than the percentiles by which it compares a skin against a reference group. A skin age derived from them can be several years out in either direction for an individual. So we read the absolute values, and we treat an age figure as what it is: a rough bearing, never a statement about you.
The Biologique Recherche® Skin Instant Lab® comes from a different tradition. Biologique Recherche® was founded in the late 1970s by the biologist Yvan Allouche and the physiotherapist Josette Allouche as a laboratory. In 1992 the Ambassade de la Beauté opened on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. Measurement has stood at the beginning of that method from the start, not product. And because every capture here is made in the same booth, in the same light and with the same head position, the appointment a year from now compares your skin and not the conditions. It is the quietest part of the equipment and the reason a record held over years is worth anything at all.
The constancy of that capture is the work of the Canfield IntelliStand. It is not a stand but a fixed studio environment of camera, two lenses, ring light, mirror system and backdrop. Every session is made inside it under the same conditions. At close range there is the Canfield D2 dermatoscope, which magnifies individual areas up to two hundred times. On it the HairMetrix® workflow reads the hair, with no need to shave it. The captures are held in the DermaGraphix image database, where a course of years can be laid side by side. We have worked to this method since 2023. Anyone who began then lays three years side by side today, and that is the one layer that cannot be bought in.
To our knowledge no second non-medical house in Berlin brings these four layers together. The written intake, standardised longitudinal capture, reference-grade measurement of five skin values, and the mapping of hair and scalp stand here under one roof and in one method. A percentile compares you against a reference group. The intake says why your skin is as it is on this particular day. Individual layers of that are held at several addresses. It is the combination that a purchase order cannot shortcut.
Inanna was named Germany's best day spa by the World Spa Awards in 2024 and 2025. It is the only CIDESCO-certified house in Berlin and was portrayed in Vogue Italia in 2025.
We hold the line clearly. We make no diagnosis, we treat no illness, and we do not assess moles. For skin cancer screening, for the investigation of hair loss, and for anything that requires a blood draw, a doctor's practice is responsible, and we refer there without detour. That is not a limitation on our work; it is the condition of it.
Inanna is a private house for aesthetic wellness, not a medical practice. What we do is cosmetic work, careful, non-invasive and unhurried. If you would like to begin with a question, Inanna Consult® is the calmest way in; if you would rather write first, you can reach us through Contact.
