Inside Olive Young Parnas Samseong Town, two ChoiceDx-powered Skin Scan systems operate side by side.

Each analyzer is installed within a curtain-style booth, allowing customers to capture skin images and review their results in a relatively private setting. Operating two stations at the same time helps distribute waiting demand and gives more customers access to the Skin Scan experience during busy periods.

During the visit, several customers were moving through the two booths. Customers were also seen following capture instructions on an English-language screen, demonstrating how the self-service experience can support the diverse customer base of the Samseong business district.

The Skin Scan zone at Olive Young Parnas Samseong Town has four defining characteristics:

Two analysis stations support more than one customer journey at a time.
Curtain-style booths reduce discomfort during facial imaging.
Language-selection screens, including English, support international visitors.
Customers can move naturally from result review to skincare product exploration.

This is not a single demonstration device. It is a retail AI skin analysis environment designed around customer volume and in-store movement.

Why are two Skin Scan stations installed side by side?

When a skin analysis system is introduced into a retail store, throughput is as important as the number of metrics or the camera specification.

With one station, the next customer must wait until the previous user completes capture and result review. In a high-traffic store, a long queue may cause potential users to leave before beginning the experience.

Two Skin Scan stations can provide several operational benefits:

Two customers can use separate booths at the same time.
Waiting demand is less concentrated on one station.
Friends or companions can participate more easily.
One station can continue operating while the other is being checked.
The store can respond more flexibly to demand during peak hours.

A floor guide asks customers to wait in a single line, making the queue and next step easier to understand.

The dual-station layout is not simply an increase in hardware. It is an operating design intended to improve usage and completion.

Curtain-style booths reduce the burden of facial imaging

Skin analysis involves capturing facial images and spending time reviewing a result screen.

Some customers may hesitate when imaging takes place in an open area surrounded by other shoppers. A degree of separation also helps users concentrate on the instructions and results.

Each Skin Scan station at Parnas Samseong Town uses a curtain-style structure.

Although it is not a fully enclosed room, it visually separates the analysis area from general store traffic and provides several benefits:

reduced awareness of surrounding shoppers during capture;
better focus on instructions and results;
separation between two customers using the stations simultaneously;
less overlap between analysis users and general shopping traffic.

The AI skin analysis experience is not created by the interface alone. Placement, booth design, queue guidance, and nearby merchandising all contribute to actual usage.

English guidance for global visitors

During the visit, customers were seen reviewing capture instructions in English.

A multilingual self-service system should not translate only the opening menu. The selected language should continue through capture guidance, error messages, analysis, and result review so that a customer can complete the entire process independently.

The following information should be clear:

where to position the face;
which posture to maintain during capture;
how to correct a failed image;
what each analysis metric represents;
what the customer can do after reviewing the result.

For overseas visitors attending an event or business meeting near COEX, the ability to use the system without interpretation or lengthy staff assistance improves accessibility.

Actual supported languages and service functions may vary by store and operating configuration.

How are ChoiceDx AI skin analysis results displayed?

After capture, skin information is organized into multiple metrics on the result screen.

During the visit, the screen displayed analysis related to moisture, pores, wrinkles, pigmentation, and skin sensitivity in a radar-chart format.

A radar chart makes it possible to review several metrics in one view. However, the shape of the chart or an overall score should not be treated as a final judgment on whether the skin is good or bad.

A practical way to read the result is to:

identify which metrics stand out relative to the others;
review metric-specific images or explanations when available;
consider conditions such as cleansing, makeup, and time of day;
use the information when exploring relevant skincare categories;
repeat analysis under similar conditions when comparing changes.

ChoiceDx skin analysis results are not medical diagnoses. They are non-medical reference information for understanding skin condition, beauty consultation, and cosmetics discovery.

Available metrics and result formats may differ according to the installed product and system configuration.

From analysis results to the skincare section

The role of Skin Scan does not end when the result appears.

Customers can use the metrics that stand out in their analysis as references when browsing skincare products.

For example:

moisture-related results → moisturizing categories;
sebum and pore-related results → cleansing and oil-control categories;
sensitivity-related results → soothing and gentle skincare;
pigmentation-related results → brightening-related categories;
wrinkle-related results → firming and targeted skincare.

This does not mean that the analysis automatically selects a product or provides a medical prescription.

The goal is to help customers narrow a large product assortment according to their own areas of interest.

At the store, a customer who had reviewed the result was seen moving toward the skincare section to browse products.

What should retailers check when operating two analyzers?

Operating two or more AI skin analysis systems requires consistent processes in addition to hardware.

Queue flow

Customers should immediately understand where to wait and which station to enter next.

Capture conditions

Lighting, device placement, and capture guidance should remain as consistent as possible across both booths.

Hygiene

Parts used at close range or touched by customers should be inspected and cleaned on a defined schedule.

Error handling

Staff should be able to identify and respond quickly when capture, network, or device issues occur.

Multilingual continuity

The entire journey should be tested to confirm that the selected language continues through result review.

Post-result movement

The business should define how customers move from results to relevant products, consultation, or digital access.

ChoiceDx can extend beyond the device into staff-assisted and self-service analysis, customer-result management, and connected product discovery.

What this Parnas Samseong Skin Scan zone demonstrates

The most important detail is not simply that two ChoiceDx systems are installed.

The store combines simultaneous operation, private imaging spaces, queue guidance, English-language use, and movement from analysis to skincare products in one customer journey.

This demonstrates what an AI analysis system needs in a high-traffic retail environment with a diverse customer base:

it must be easy to find;
the waiting process must be immediately understandable;
first-time users must be able to complete capture;
the experience should support multiple languages;
results should lead to a clear next action;
the operation should handle demand from more than one customer.

When technology, spatial design, and operating procedures work together, skin analysis can develop from a one-time attraction into a repeatable in-store service.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the Skin Scan zone inside the store?

At the time of the visit, two stations were located next to the mask-product area inside the store. Store layouts may change, so visitors should look for the Skin Scan sign or ask store staff.

Can two customers use Skin Scan at the same time?

The two devices are installed in separate booths. When both are operating normally, two customers can use one station each at the same time.

Is English available?

Customers were observed using the English guidance screen. Actual available languages and result-access functions may vary according to the store configuration.

How long does the analysis take?

The time varies depending on language selection, capture, whether a retake is required, and how long the customer reviews the result. The process follows on-screen self-service guidance.

Is the result a medical diagnosis?

No. It is non-medical information intended to support understanding of the skin, beauty consultation, and cosmetics discovery. Medical symptoms should be discussed with a qualified healthcare professional.

Can customers explore products after the analysis?

Depending on the operating configuration, customers may view products or categories related to their analysis metrics. This is cosmetics guidance rather than a medical prescription.

A more flexible retail experience built around two analyzers

The Skin Scan zone at Olive Young Parnas Samseong Town represents more than two AI skin analyzers placed next to one another.

Customers can capture skin images inside separate booths, follow guidance in an available language, and use the results to explore relevant skincare categories.

During busy periods, both systems can operate at the same time, reducing pressure on one queue and providing a consistent self-service experience for customers with different languages and visit purposes.

From one analysis station to an operating structure for multiple customers.From result review to real product exploration.

ChoiceDx connects skin, scalp, and hair analysis with retail space, customer flow, multilingual UX, product recommendation, and result management.
