Which system is classified based on the levels of visible damage to the skin?

Glogau
Goldman
Fitzpatrick
Lancer

The correct answer is: Glogau

The Glogau classification system is specifically designed to assess and categorize skin aging based on visible signs of damage. This system considers factors such as wrinkles, pigmentation, and texture to determine the severity of skin aging, providing practitioners with a framework to identify the degree of photodamage a client may have experienced. In contrast, the Fitzpatrick scale is more focused on skin type and its reaction to UV exposure rather than visible damage, while the Goldman classification is primarily concerned with the aesthetic outcomes of different skin types. The Lancer method, similar to Glogau, also addresses skin aging but does not explicitly classify based on levels of visible damage. Thus, the Glogau system's focus on observable skin condition makes it the correct choice for this question.
