  • " As a corrective aesthetician, before-and-after photos are an essential part of my practice. Image Assist has completely transformed how I capture and present my clients’ progress. This app ensures that every photo is consistent in lighting, angles, and quality, which is critical for documenting the changes in my clients’ skin throughout their corrective journeys. Not only does this tool help me as a professional keep accurate track of progress, but it also serves as an invaluable reminder for my clients. Since they see their faces every day, it’s easy for them to forget just how far they’ve come. With Image Assist, I can show them exactly where we started and how much their skin has improved over time. One standout feature is the blue backdrop, which provides a brilliant background color for showcasing the changes in my clients' skin. It highlights the transformations beautifully and ensures every detail is visible and professional. The clear, consistent visuals allow my clients to truly appreciate their transformations, and it helps build trust in the process.

  • "As a chief resident preparing for my upcoming boards, this app has been incredibly helpful. Having patient photographs that meet board standards is crucial, but achieving consistent backgrounds and high-quality before-and-after images can be challenging due to slight variations in camera angle or perspective. This program eliminates those concerns by automatically applying a professional blue background and guiding the camera to maintain a consistent angle and perspective. It’s a game-changer, and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of reliable, board-compliant photography."
