Abstract
Purpose: Korea's beauty and health industry has continued to change and develop beyond simple appearance care into the area of health intervention. Accordingly, this study was conducted to confirm the mechanism of application of device using Microcurrent Technology to the human body and various management methods. In addition, the purpose of this study was to find out how Microcurrent device is being used for health interventions in modern people. Method: In this study, we investigated previous research related to microcurrent, health intervention, and beauty care published until recently in PubMed, Google Scholar, and Korea Research Information Sharing Service. Among them, a literature review was conducted on papers judged to be deeply related to the content of this study. Results: In Korea, devices that use Microcurrent Technology are still being used interchangeably without an exact definition. The reason for this is that we are in a transitional period from medical device to beauty device. In this study, the device for skin care and health intervention was defined as Microcurrent Care (MCC), and the mechanism of application to the human body was confirmed. In addition, the method of using and safety management of the MCC device was also presented. Conclusion: In Korean society, as the beauty industry continues to change and develop into an area that improves health and quality of life, the range of use of MCC devices is gradually expanding. In this study, the understanding and utilization areas of MCC devices were identified for the development direction of K-beauty, and suggestions were made for long-term success and sustainability.
