  2. Compare approaches

A snapshot or a record?

Both begin with an image. The difference is whether that image becomes a one-time answer or one moment in your own history.

Stella is built for repeated observation, not diagnosis or product prescription.

The core difference

A single scan describes a moment. A record lets you compare moments.

Two different product models.

This comparison is about approach, not whether every skin app behaves the same way. Individual products and features vary.

The scan is an input.

Stella’s value grows when repeated scans, routine records and selected context become easier to compare across time.

Stella provides personalised skincare suggestions based on your skin's appearance. These are appearance-level observations, not therapeutic advice. Stella is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition. If you have a skin concern, please consult a healthcare professional.

Stella scans your skin, tracks what matters, and gives you the information to decide what to do next.
