Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention provides a skin condition display that illustrates the factors closely related to the physiological functions of human skin so that the health condition of the skin can be understood at a glance. It is about the method. Factors closely related to the physiological functions of the skin include skin temperature, epidermal stratum corneum water content (skin moisture),
Epidermal sebum amount (skin oil), sebum membrane PH (skin PH)
Below, we will explain the relationship between these factors and the skin. Skin temperature and skin In general, it is said that the skin temperature of the face is 32°C to 33.5°C. Whether the skin temperature is high or low, it affects the moisture and oil content of the skin. That is, this results in metabolic abnormalities in the blood flowing through the capillaries, and as a result,
It also causes various troubles due to nutritional supply to the skin, secretion, and other abnormalities. Capillaries carry necessary nutrients to the skin, improve the metabolism of the epidermis, smooth the skin, improve the function of connective fibers and elastic fibers in the dermis, and remove waste products from the skin to maintain skin health. keep it. Healthy skin has a well-balanced skin temperature across the face, which causes the stratum corneum to retain moisture and emulsify sebum well. Knowing skin temperature is knowing the balance of the skin, and it is deeply connected to the state of skin care, living conditions, constitution, etc. Moisture in the skin and the skin When the skin lacks moisture, the surface becomes rough, loses moisture, and loses its tension, which also affects the emulsification of the sebum film and PH balance, contributing to skin problems. Knowing the amount of moisture in your skin is important for maintaining skin tension, preventing wrinkles, and maintaining beautiful skin. Skin's oil content and skin The luster, tension, and elasticity of the skin are closely related to the moisture and oil content of the skin. Since the oil content is low, a lot of moisture evaporates, making the skin surface dry and exfoliating easily.Also, if the skin temperature is high or oil secretion is intense due to eating, etc., makeup will come off and the skin will become dirty. This can easily cause problems. Skin PH and Skin It is said that a pH of 4.5 to 6.0 is good for the sebum film, and the sebum film is weakly acidic against chemical stimuli, neutralizing external alkalis and suppressing the growth of bacteria and mold. Prior Art As mentioned above, skin temperature, skin moisture, skin oil content, which are factors closely related to the physiological functions of the skin,
Regarding skin PH, etc., each measured value and ideal value are simply compared individually, and therefore, the balance based on the overall numerical evaluation of the face for each of the above factors, and the balance between the factors. There is no function to clearly display relationships or to determine subsequent changes in skin condition graphically at a glance. That is, at present, there is no method that can comprehensively diagnose each person's unique skin characteristics using diagrams, or easily track and manage the health status of the skin by capturing subsequent changes. Problems to be Solved by the Invention Factors closely related to the physiological functions of the skin, such as skin temperature, skin moisture, skin oil, and skin PH, are illustrated individually or in relation to each other. The objective is to obtain a skin condition display method that not only allows for a visual comprehensive diagnosis of the skin's physiological function status not only partially but also as a whole at a glance, as well as that allows regular and continuous diagnosis to be performed visually and instantly. . Measures to solve the problem: Three levels of preset numerical values measured at multiple predetermined parts of the face for factors related to the physiological functions of the skin, such as skin temperature, skin moisture, skin oil content, and skin PH. The physiological factors are determined by using evaluation values to be replaced in about five stages, and a diagnostic chart in which the evaluation values are sequentially listed from the inside to the outside at locations corresponding to the facial measurement sites of the facial diagram created in advance. At each point, the measurement value of each part and the corresponding evaluation value are connected by a curved line that follows the outline of the facial figure, and the physiological function state of the skin is partially and totally illustrated from the position of the connected ring. This allows for a comprehensive skin health diagnosis. Embodiment Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings and how to use it. Figure 1 is a record chart a, in which the forehead 1, the left and right outer corners 2, 2, the left and right cheeks 3, 3, and the chin 4 are marked with skin temperature (a factor closely related to the physiological function of the skin). TH), skin moisture (M), skin oil content
(F), each heading character of skin PH (PH) TH, M, F, PH
A measurement value recording section for the relevant factor is provided with an empty column for writing the corresponding measurement value, and the date (DATE), time (TIME), temperature (TEMP), and humidity (WET) of the measurement date are displayed below the facial image. There are columns such as. FIG. 2 is a diagnostic chart b, which corresponds to the recording chart a, with the forehead 1, the left and right corners of the eyes 2,
2. On the left and right cheeks 3, 3, and chin 4, from the inside to the outside, with a slight distance between the letters, write A, B,
A list of letters or symbols indicating evaluation values in five stages of C, D, and E is written, and the date of measurement (DATE), time (TIME), temperature (TEMP), and humidity (WET) are written above the facial image. A column is provided. The attached table is an evaluation table showing the relationship between each measured value and evaluation value for skin temperature, skin moisture, and skin oil factors (skin PH is omitted), and shows an example of a five-level evaluation. When the measured numerical values of each factor written in the above-mentioned record chart a are converted in correspondence with the corresponding group of numbers in the evaluation table in the attached table, it corresponds to one of the evaluation values A to E, and the obtained evaluation value is used as the diagnostic chart b. Mark the evaluation value positions of forehead 1, left and right outer corners of the eyes 2, 2, left and right cheeks 3, 3, and chin 4 on the facial diagram of A diagnostic diagram is constructed by connecting a circle with a curved line that follows the outline of the face in the following order: left cheek → left corner of the eye → forehead. in this case,
For example, it would be extremely convenient to color-code the lines using predetermined colors to distinguish between factors. Note that the skin temperature, moisture content, and fat content may vary slightly depending on the season, time of day, humidity, etc. at the time of measurement, so the measured values should be corrected. Effect The physiological function of the skin can be diagnosed using the diagnostic diagram drawn above. For example, if diagnostic diagrams showing cases 1 to 9 as shown in FIG. 3 are obtained, the following diagnosis will be made. in this case,
In order to simplify the explanation, two factors, moisture and fat, will be described. In the figure, moisture is shown as a solid line, and fat content is shown as a dotted line. Case 1: The skin is in ideal condition with moisture and oil lines matching. Case 2 The moisture content is ideal, but the fat content is more in the forehead and less in the chin line, which is the T-zone type. The skin on the forehead is oily and the skin on the chin is easily rough. Case 3 The fat content is ideal, but the amount of water is high on the forehead and low on the chin. Case 4: Although the moisture content is ideal, there is less oil on the forehead and more on the chin, and the forehead is rough and the skin on the chin area is prone to breakouts. Case 5 The oil content is ideal, but the amount of water is less on the forehead and more on the chin. Case 6: The skin is in an ideal state of moisture, but has a lot of oil on the forehead and chin, making it easy for makeup to come off. Case 7 The oil content is ideal, but there is a lot of water on both the forehead and chin, causing the dead skin to soften and peel off easily. Case 8 The oil content is ideal, but the moisture content is unbalanced in the cheek area. Case 9 The moisture condition is ideal, but the oil content in the cheek area is unbalanced. Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention is useful in determining whether the circle of factors closely related to the physiological function of the skin depicted in the diagnostic chart is in an ideal position or deviates from the ideal position. It is possible to see at a glance whether a factor is balanced or unbalanced depending on the You can visually see at a glance whether these factors are balanced or unbalanced by whether they overlap or are out of alignment with each other. It is possible to perform a comprehensive skin health diagnosis by illustrating not only the target, but also the entire skin, and by creating a diagnostic diagram using the same method at a later date, it is possible to visually check the changes in the physiological function of the skin during that time. Since it can be grasped at a glance, continuous diagnosis can be made by regularly and continuously measuring and creating a diagnostic diagram, and it can make an important contribution to providing accurate and multifaceted cosmetic counseling. 【table】
