Background: At present, there are many different evaluation methods for sensitive skin, including subjective, semisubjective, and objective evaluation. Various objective tests focus on assessing changes in barrier functions. It is anticipated that the ANTERA 3D®, in combination with GPSkin Barrier®, will provide better evaluation of sensitive skin.Methods: A total of 20 subjects with sensitive skin and 20 healthy participants were recruited. Sensitive skin subjects were treated with an anti-sensitive moisturizing tolerance-extreme cream which has anti-inflammatory and moisturizing effects, twice daily on the whole face for 28 days. VISIA ® Skin Detector was used to record clinical images and red area. GPSkin Barrier ® was used to measure TEWL and SCH. Texture, hemoglobin, and influenced area (mm 2 ) were recorded using ANTERA 3D ® . Subjects underwent skin tests and recorded changes at D0 and D28. Data were only collected from healthy participants who did not receive treatment as controls.Results: TEWL, texture, hemoglobin, and affected area in sensitive skin group were significantly higher than those in healthy group, while SCH was significantly lower than that in healthy group (p all<0.05). After anti-inflammatory and moisturizing treatment, the texture, hemoglobin, and affected area of sensitive skin decreased, TEWL decreased while SCH increased (p all<0.05). Conclusions:Based on the results, the combination of the ANTERA 3D ® with GPSkin Barrier ® could be used as a new kind of quantitative evaluation method for the detection and diagnosis of sensitive skin.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
