The DNAwise Skin Report is a personalized skincare assessment that utilizes your unique genetic information to provide insights into your skin's unique needs and tendencies. The "DNAwise Skin" genetic report serves as your roadmap, guiding you towards dermal care solutions that are uniquely suited to your skin's & hair’s genetic makeup, enhancing its health and appearance. This report provides insights on 29 conditions of your skin like acne, pigmentation.

DNAwise genetic testing involves collection of saliva or blood sample (in some cases) followed by extraction of DNA from these samples. SNP genotyping is then done using microarray technology to understand your genetic make-up at various genetic markers known to be associated with the parameters in DNAwise test. This genotyping data is then used to generate the DNAwise Genetic Test Report using standard bioinformatics pipeline.

Saliva collection process involves collection of your spit sample in a specific buffer solution present in the tube supplied with the Saliva Sample Kit.

Genetic counseling is a process wherein beneficiaries of DNAwise are explained their genetic test report and advised on further plan of action.

You will be sent a PDF copy of your genetic testing report at your email addresses registered with us.

DNAwise reports your genetic test results based on your genotype at various genetic markers (SNPs) as per the latest scientific knowledge. The risk scores and results are unlikely to change when the test is repeated with the same markers and technology platform used in this test. However, genetics is an evolving field and as genetics research progresses, more and more gene-disease associations (genetic markers) are discovered. Also, the technology for genetic testing is ever improving. The test results and interpretation may or may not change when newly found genetic variants or upgraded technology is used in a more advanced genetic test. Saliva sample collection is mostly one-time for DNAwise. However, various reports can be generated based on the research. Also if diagnosed with some clinical conditions then more specific diagnostic/ clinical tests may be required as directed by the doctor.

Skin health is the result of a complex interaction between genetics and the environment, including lifestyle, diet, habits, activity level, stress, and exposures. By understanding these interactions, you can tailor your skincare regimen and lifestyle choices to optimize your skin health, addressing specific genetic predispositions and environmental impacts for a more personalized and effective approach to skincare.
