Abstract

This study examined the effect of paraffin wax mask pack on skin improvement. The subjects were 13 males and females in 20s. Subjects applied the paraffin wax mask pack eight times for four weeks. To determine the effects of paraffin wax mask pack on the skin, we measured oil, moisture, skin surface temperature, softness of skin and satisfaction in subjective skin condition. After using the paraffin wax mask pack, the moisture, oil content of the facial skin, skin surface temperature and softness of skin increased. In addition, the subjects were highly satisfied with the improvement in subjective skin conditons such as dryness, oil and skin tone. Therefore, these results suggest that paraffin wax mask pack has beneficial effects on skin improvement and it will have high utility and value as development of skin care devices for skin care.

본 연구는 파라핀 왁스 마스크팩의 피부개선 효과를 확인하기 위한 연구이다. 연구 대상은 20대 성인 남녀 13명을 대상으로 시행하였다. 연구는 4주간 8회 대상자에게 파라핀왁스 마스크팩을 적용하였다. 파라핀왁스 마스크팩의 피부개선 효과를 확인하기 위해 피부 유 수분도, 피부 표면온도, 피부 부드러움 정도 및 피부상태 주관적 만족도를 측정하였다. 파라핀 왁스 마스크팩 도포 후 피부의 유수분도, 피부표면 온도가 상승하였으며, 피부 부드러움 정도와 유 수분도 및 피부톤의 내용을 포함한 피부 주관적 만족도도 개선되었음을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구결과 파라핀왁스 마스크팩은 피부개선에 효과가 있음을 확인하였고, 피부관리를 위한 피부미용기기 개발에 유용성과 가치가 있을 것이다.
