The Nu Skin Prysm® iO is a non-invasive skin carotenoid measurement device that uses resonance Raman spectroscopy technology to objectively measure the level of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin — providing a real-time, science-based score that reflects your nutritional status, supplement efficacy, and overall antioxidant protection at the cellular level.
What Is Skin Carotenoid Measurement?
Carotenoids are fat-soluble antioxidant pigments (including beta-carotene, lycopene, and lutein) that accumulate in skin tissue in direct proportion to dietary intake and supplement absorption. The Prysm iO uses resonance Raman spectroscopy — the same technology used in clinical research settings — to detect and quantify carotenoid concentration in the skin non-invasively in seconds. Your Prysm score is a direct, objective measure of how well your body is absorbing and utilizing antioxidant nutrients from food and supplements like Pharmanex LifePak® Nano.
Why Your Prysm Score Matters
Unlike blood tests or subjective assessments, the Prysm iO gives you an objective, real-time antioxidant status score that you can track over time. A higher Prysm score correlates with greater antioxidant protection against oxidative stress — a key driver of cellular aging, skin aging, and chronic disease risk. The Prysm iO makes the invisible visible: you can now see whether your supplements are actually working.
Benefits
- Resonance Raman spectroscopy technology for non-invasive skin carotenoid measurement
- Objective, real-time antioxidant status score in seconds — no blood draw required
- Tracks supplement efficacy over time — see if your Pharmanex supplements are working
- Measures carotenoid antioxidant concentration directly in skin tissue
- Motivates dietary and supplement compliance with visible, trackable results
- Connects to the Nu Skin Vera app for score tracking, trend analysis, and personalized recommendations
- Clinically validated technology used in peer-reviewed research
- Compact, portable handheld device — use at home or on the go
How to Use
- Place the Prysm iO sensor against the palm of your hand
- Hold steady for the 30-second measurement scan
- Your Prysm carotenoid score is displayed instantly in the Nu Skin Vera app
- Track your score over time to monitor the impact of dietary changes and supplement use
For best results, measure at the same time of day under consistent conditions. Scores typically improve over 4–8 weeks of consistent Pharmanex supplement use and a carotenoid-rich diet.
FAQ
Q: What does my Prysm score mean? A: Your Prysm score reflects the concentration of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin. Higher scores indicate greater antioxidant protection. Scores below 25,000 Raman intensity units suggest low antioxidant status; scores above 50,000 indicate good antioxidant protection.
Q: How quickly will my score improve after starting Pharmanex supplements? A: Most users see measurable score improvements within 4–8 weeks of consistent supplement use combined with a diet rich in colorful fruits and vegetables.
Q: Is the Prysm iO the same as the S3 Scanner? A: The Prysm iO is the latest generation of Nu Skin's skin carotenoid measurement technology, replacing the earlier S3 Scanner with improved accuracy and Vera app integration.
Q: Where can I buy the Nu Skin Prysm iO? A: Available at NuBodyRx.com — an authorized Nu Skin retailer with guaranteed authenticity and fast US shipping.
