Visioline® VL 650 (Quantirides®)
Effortless Assessment of Skin Micro & Macro Relief
Where to use?
A Trusted Tool for Anti-Wrinkle Efficacy Testing
For decades, the evaluation of skin micro- and macro-relief has been a key focus in the cosmetic industry. The Visioline® VL 650 offers a precise, user-friendly, and cost-effective solution for R&D laboratories and testing institutes, making it ideal for formulation development and efficacy testing of anti-wrinkle products.
Specially designed to assess prominent wrinkles—such as crow’s feet and nasolabial folds—the Visioline® uses replica-based measurements, making it not only suitable for in-house testing but also highly effective in international ring studies.
Common claims substantiated with the Visioline® include:
-
Anti-wrinkle
-
Anti-aging
-
Improvement of crow’s feet area
-
Skin smoothing
-
Rejuvenating effects
-
Anti-roughness
With its robust methodology and reproducible results, the Visioline® is an essential tool for substantiating cosmetic claims with scientific precision.

How does Visioline® VL 650 work?
Proven Measurement Principle with Silflo® Replica Technology
The Visioline® VL 650 utilizes a skin replica-based analysis, employing Silflo®—a renowned white, non-glossy silicone material—to accurately capture the skin’s surface relief. The replica is illuminated inside the device using oblique lighting at a 35° angle, a method designed to cast shadows that emphasize surface irregularities.
These shadows, created by the elevated ridges in the replica that represent wrinkles, are then captured by a vertically mounted digital camera. The resulting images form the basis for precise, reproducible arithmetical evaluations, including:
-
Wrinkle depth (μm)
-
Wrinkle length (mm)
-
Wrinkle area (mm²)
This robust and scientifically validated method ensures objective and quantitative wrinkle analysis.
Replica Production Kit for Skin Relief Analysis
The Replica Kit provides all the necessary materials for creating high-quality skin surface impressions used in conjunction with the Visioline® VL 650 system. It is specially designed for accurate replication of both deep wrinkles (e.g., crow’s feet) and fine skin structures (e.g., inner forearm).
Kit Contents:
-
225 g of Silflo® silicone material
-
1 bottle of thinner
-
1 bottle of catalyst
-
100 double-sided adhesive rings
-
100 stirring rods
-
100 stirring cups
Silflo® offers the ideal viscosity for precise replication. It flows smoothly into both large and small wrinkles without distorting the natural skin surface and can be easily removed after curing.
📌 Storage Instructions:
Keep Silflo® in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality and performance.
