Description


With the world’s first variable polarization system in a hybrid dermatoscope, DermLite® DL5 lets you uncover a whole new layer in handheld dermoscopy. Not only can you toggle between polarized and non-polarized modes, now you’re able to visualize extremely superficial structures under parallel polarization and, as you scroll through the entire polarization range using its amazing scroll-and-push button dial, optically explore a lesion’s visual depths.

You'll discover that nothing boosts your dermoscopy superpowers like DL5.
