Profilometry precisely analyzes skin surface structure using a synthetic mold and profilometer. This method confirmed positive effects of estrogen creams on facial skin surface texture.

Area of Science:

Dermatology and biomedical engineering.

Background:

Assessing skin surface structure is crucial for understanding aging and treatment efficacy.
Existing methods may lack the precision required for detailed surface analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the positive effects of estrogen creams on facial skin surface structure.
To introduce and validate profilometry as a precise method for skin surface analysis.

Main Methods:

Skin surface impressions were created using a synthetic material.
Profilometry was employed to quantitatively measure skin roughness.
Statistical software was utilized for data analysis.

Main Results:

Profilometry successfully captured detailed skin surface topography.
