our featured service
At Moonstone Medical Aesthetics, we offer thermography as a non-invasive way to gain insight into how your body is functioning. Unlike traditional imaging that focuses on structure, thermography uses infrared technology to detect patterns of heat and circulation, helping identify areas of inflammation or change within the body.
This approach allows for a more proactive and informed perspective on your wellness, supporting early awareness while complementing traditional screening methods.
Most imaging looks at the structure of the body - what's there. Thermography looks at how the body is functioning - what's happening.
Using a specialized infrared camera, thermography captures heat and circulation patterns beneath the surface of the skin. Because inflammation is often one of the body's earliest signals that something needs attention, thermography gives you a window into your health before symptoms show up — often years earlier than traditional imaging.
It's not a replacement for your mammogram or other screenings. It's an additional layer of insight — one that helps you stay informed, proactive, and in control of your own wellness.

By focusing on changes in function rather than structure, thermography encourages a more proactive approach to health, helping you stay ahead of potential concerns.
This imaging method is completely non-invasive, requires no compression, and involves no radiation, making it a comfortable and safe option for ongoing monitoring.
Thermography helps identify patterns of heat and inflammation in the body, often before physical symptoms appear, allowing for earlier awareness and more informed decisions about your health.
Thermography works alongside other imaging methods, offering additional information that can support a more complete and well-rounded approach to your overall wellness.
Unlike traditional imaging, thermography focuses on how the body is working, providing a different perspective that highlights activity, circulation, and areas that may need attention.
Thermography can be used beyond one specific area, offering insight into multiple regions of the body and helping you better understand overall patterns of inflammation and circulation.
Depending on your health goals, we can focus on a specific area of concern or provide a comprehensive full-body overview.
Thermal imaging of the breast tissue may provide insight into vascular and inflammatory patterns and is often used as part of a proactive wellness strategy.
Evaluation of the neck and thyroid region may help identify thermal patterns associated with inflammation and physiological changes.
Maxillofacial imaging evaluates the head, face, jaw, and neck, providing insight into sinus health, dental concerns, TMJ-related issues, and inflammation patterns.
Upper body imaging may include the shoulders, arms, chest, upper back, and surrounding structures to identify areas of thermal irregularity and inflammation.
Lower body imaging evaluates the hips, pelvis, legs, knees, and feet, helping identify thermal patterns that may warrant further investigation.
A comprehensive full-body scan provides a broader view of temperature patterns throughout the body and may help support a proactive approach to wellness and preventative care.
“I had been wanting to take a more proactive approach to my health, and this felt like a really comfortable place to start. The entire experience was simple, not intimidating at all, and I appreciated being able to understand what was going on in my body in a different way. It gave me peace of mind and helped me feel more in control of my health.”

I wasn’t sure what to expect going in, but it ended up being one of the easiest appointments I’ve had. There was no discomfort, and the team made me feel completely at ease. Getting my results back gave me a better understanding of my body and what I should be paying attention to. It’s something I’ll definitely continue doing as part of my routine.
