Two women can have identical symptoms — and still experience hormonal pattern in completely opposite ways.

Ancient Ayurvedic tradition observed the face, skin, nails, and body frame to understand hormonal patterns. AAVIE brings this traditional practice to your smartphone.

The Ancient Practice

In classical Ayurveda, the physician's first tool wasn't a stethoscope or a blood test — it was observation. The eyes, the skin, the shape of the face, the quality of hair, the distribution of fat — all of these told a story. A story about which Dosha was dominant, which was imbalanced, and what the body needed.

This practice is called Darshana — visual examination, a traditional Ayurvedic approach to understanding the body's current state.

What Your Face Reveals

Ayurveda associates specific zones of the face with different bodily patterns. AAVIE's visual screening looks at these zones together as part of your overall picture.

Forehead and Temples

In Ayurveda, fine horizontal lines, dryness, and a furrowed brow are traditionally associated with stress and Vata tendency.

Pattern signal: Vata tendency

Jawline and Chin

In Ayurveda, breakouts along the jawline and chin are traditionally associated with a Pitta pattern.

Pattern signal: Pitta tendency

Cheeks and Under-eyes

In Ayurveda, puffiness and dark circles here are traditionally associated with Kapha tendency.

Pattern signal: Kapha tendency

Skin Texture and Hair

Oily T-zone with dry cheeks, thinning scalp hair, or excess facial hair — Ayurveda associates each pattern with a different tendency tied to your specific BodyType.

Pattern signal: Mixed Dosha tendency

What Your Body Frame Reveals

Beyond the face, where your body stores fat — and how your frame is built — is one of the most informative observations of your dominant Dosha and current body state.

• Vata frame — Lean, narrow, angular. Fat is stored minimally and unevenly. Joints visible. Low muscle mass.
• Pitta frame — Medium build, athletic tendency. Fat is stored in the abdomen under stress. Defined musculature.
• Kapha frame — Broader, heavier, rounded. Fat is distributed across the hips, thighs, and abdomen. Prone to gain.

Your photos are never stored

AAVIE's visual screening processes your photos locally and deletes them immediately after analysis. No image is ever stored on our servers or shared with anyone — ever.

The AAVIE Visual Engine

AAVIE's screening reads multiple visual markers across your face and body — cross-referenced against your BodyType quiz answers. The result isn't a generic report. It's a precise hormonal map unique to your body.

A natural-light selfie and a full-length photo in fitted clothing. No makeup, no filters.

Step 02 — Analyse

Visual markers assessed: skin zones, fat distribution, hair quality, eye clarity, nail condition, and more.

Step 03 — Cross-reference

Visual findings combined with your Prakriti quiz answers to build your BodyType and Vikriti picture.

Step 04 — Supplement

Your herb blend, food guidance, and daily rituals are assembled specifically for what your body is showing.

Your body has been sending signals through your skin, your face, and your frame. AAVIE finally listens.
