The DermLite® DL5 features a 32 mm lens system with true 10× magnification, delivering exceptional detail and setting a new benchmark for both up-close resolution and superior clarity at greater viewing distances.
With 365 nm UV at 10× magnification, DL5 delivers powerful Wood-mode visualization in a compact handheld device—revealing fluorescence to assess acne treatment response and identify pigmented, vascular, inflammatory, bacterial, and fungal lesions across skin, nails, and mucosa.
When screening your patients at a distance, DL5’s high-powered torch LED provides phenomenal illumination to larger areas or hard-to-reach localizations, eliminating the dark center associated with using a dermatoscope’s main LEDs.
True 10× magnification with a Ø 32 mm high-resolution lens and adjustable polarization and brightness delivers enhanced detail with complete control over your imaging workflow.
