SKIN MICRORELIEF EVALUATION METHOD BY MEASURING CONTRACTED STATE OF HORNY LAYER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To establish an evaluation method capable of evaluating a state of a microrelief more accurately than the conventional texture evaluation method by focusing attention on a skin microrelief structure and the function thereof.SOLUTION: The establishment of the evaluation method is by measuring a contracted state of a horny layer. The horny layer is a component of a microrelief, and it is possible to evaluate a state of the microrelief more accurately by measuring a contracted state of the horny layer.
