ABSTRACT
Both external and internal factors cause the skin of human to undergo many changes. Many methods or processes have been employed to maintain and suppress the skin condition, and furthermore, many new technologies have been introduced for such purposes. Though the effect of current care and management devices have been know, the difference in effect is limited. This study sought to designed to spray water-soluble materials in the form of fine particles injection molecules and 1, 2, and the control group in order to examine the change in the skin by using the fine particles injection and singular fine particles injection which utilized electric current and the iontophoresis. To determine the degree of maintenance after using the device, the skin condition was evaluated two weeks after the test. For the evaluation of skin condition, the number of pores, the number of black heads, the number of flushing were investigated before the experiment, during the 6th and 12th experiment, and two weeks after the experiment. The collected data was analyzed with SPSS WIN 12.0, and the survey was conducted to measure the satisfaction of he subjects. The skin conditions before and after the experiment were put into comparison by photographing the skin condition with RSA. The findings of experiment indicated that the test group 1 showed more positive results in overall aspects than the control group among two groups which used the electric current, while the test group 1 showed more positive result than the test group 2 among the groups positive result than the test group 2, except the number of pores and flushing.
