'Biohacking' might sound futuristic, but at its core, it’s about understanding your biology and using science, technology, and lifestyle choices to optimise how your body(and your skin) performs.

THE NEW ERA OF PERSONALISED WELLNESS

Once a niche concept reserved for Silicon Valley health enthusiasts, biohacking has now entered mainstream wellness, transforming how we approach ageing, skincare, and long-term vitality. In aesthetics, we’ve always talked about tailored treatments, but biohacking takes personalisation a step further. It uses data-driven insights to understand what your body actually needs. From nutrient levels to cellular function, it’s about working smarter, not harder, to get visible results from the inside out.

BIOHACKING AND SKIN HEALTH

Your skin is a reflection of what’s happening internally. When nutrient levels are low or oxidative stress is high, it shows up as dullness, fine lines, and slower healing. This is where biohacking becomes powerful: it gives us measurable information that allows us to target the root cause, not just the surface symptoms.

At Halo Aesthetics, we integrate this concept through skincare, supplements, and technology that support both the external structure and the internal systems driving skin health.

THE BIOPHOTONIC SCANNER

We are very lucky at Halo Aesthetics to have the Pharmanex Biophotonic Scanner which is a prime example of biohacking in action. Using Nobel Prize–winning Raman spectroscopy, it provides a non-invasive measurement of your skin carotenoid score (SCS) which is an excellent indicator of your body’s inner health.

This 30 second, non-invasive scan gives real, quantifiable data on how well your body is protected against oxidative stress - the very process that accelerates ageing. It allows us to measure progress over time and tailor supplement recommendations, so that you can actually see and measure the impact of what you're taking.

THE NEXT STEP: PRYSM IO

Soon, we’ll be introducing Prysm iO, the world’s first intelligent wellness device capable of analysing antioxidant levels in real time using next-generation optical technology. Building on two decades of Biophotonic Scanner data, Prysm iO represents the future of biohacking and intelligent skincare, giving both practitioners and patients deeper insight into how lifestyle, diet, and supplementation affect inner health.

As the platform evolves, it will move beyond antioxidants to track a wider spectrum of biomarkers and micronutrients, paving the way for AI-driven personalised supplementation, taking the guesswork out of wellness.

BIOHACKING MEETS BEAUTY

Combining advanced skincare, evidence-based supplementation, and measurable technology allows us to deliver truly holistic, results-driven programmes. This is what modern skin health looks like: understanding your biology, tracking change, and empowering you to take control of how you age.

At Halo Aesthetics, we believe that beautiful skin starts with measurable health, and the ability to track your progress is the ultimate biohack.

Ask in clinic for a scan and start your own biohacking journey - STOP GUESSING, START KNOWING.

Lots of Halo love
