Abstract
We examined the changes in skin conditions before and after the application of electroluminescent infrared heating lamp to the body regions of healthy Korean men. We assessed the differences in sebum, moisture, pores, wrinkles, pigmentation, and elasticity of the skin in the forearm, back, and shin regions. A total of 30 healthy men in their 20s were enrolled. We used a Skin Diagnosis Meter for skin state measurements. Statistical differences were found between the pre- and post-measurement values in the moisture, wrinkles, pigmentation, and elasticity of skin. In the correlation analysis results, moisture and wrinkle, moisture and elasticity, pore and pigmentation, and wrinkle and elasticity were positively correlated, respectively. However, moisture and pore, moisture and pigmentation, pore and wrinkle, pore and elasticity, wrinkle and pigmentation, and pigmentation and elasticity were negatively correlated, respectively. These results suggest that the change in skin condition is associated with external stimulants. The effect of infrared radiation on the various skin conditions may differ depending on the part of the body.
