Skin Susceptibility Profile

A guided skin assessment designed for phone use. Complete each short section and receive one clear summary at the end.

What it assesses: Fitzpatrick phototype, Lancer ancestry context, Monk visible tone, pigmentation response, sensitivity, barrier status, congestion, vascular/redness tendency and photoageing.
This is a clinical screening aid, not a diagnosis and not a substitute for contraindication screening, manufacturer guidance or test-patching.

Fitzpatrick phototype

Usual UV response • Questions 1–5

Please answer all questions on this screen.
Natural eye colour
Natural hair colour
Natural untanned skin colour
Freckles on normally unexposed skin
Usual response to substantial unprotected summer sun

Fitzpatrick phototype

Usual UV response • Questions 6–10

Please answer all questions on this screen.
Usual ability to develop a tan
How deeply does the skin usually tan?
How sensitive is the face to sun exposure?
How readily does pigmentation develop after repeated UV exposure?
Natural tendency to tan compared with other people

Lancer Ancestry Scale

Choose the closest ancestral category for each grandparent. Select “Not known” if needed.

Please answer all four grandparent questions.
Maternal grandmother
Maternal grandfather
Paternal grandmother
Paternal grandfather
The Lancer result is supplementary ancestry-related context. It does not replace the client's own PIH, healing and scarring history.

Monk visible tone

Record the client's current visible skin tone today.

Please select a Monk tone.
Select the client's current visible skin tone
Use the official Monk visual reference in consistent lighting. A tan may change visible tone without changing underlying Fitzpatrick phototype.

Assessment priorities
    Higher screening results mean “investigate and adapt”, not “condition diagnosed”. Record current tan/UV exposure, previous PIH/hypopigmentation, scarring/healing history, medication and treatment-specific contraindications separately.
