The effects of natural emollient oily gel application on biophysical skin parameters / Nurul Najmi Muhammad

Biophysical skin parameters are indicators of the skin condition. Moreover, it is useful to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of skin products. This 8 week study evaluated the effects of natural emollient oily gel (NEOG) on skin moisture (stratum comeum hydration), transepidermal water loss...

Moreover, it is useful to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of skin products. This 8 week study evaluated the effects of natural emollient oily gel (NEOG) on skin moisture (stratum comeum hydration), transepidermal water loss (TEWL), skin topography and skin biomechanical properties. Human volunteers were divided into two groups, one group received NEOG product, and another group received placebo product and they were applied given products on forearms in 8 weeks. The measurements were done before, after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of products application. There were significantly differences in NEOG group compared to placebo for most of the measured parameters. Skin moisture and skin topography parameters which were skin roughness and skin wrinkles had significantly improved. However, there were no significant differences on TEWL and skin biomechanical properties although the data demonstrated that there were some improving measurements in those properties. So, NEOG is effective in improving certain skin biophysical parameters and a good choice of skin product for treatment of skin condition associated with the dry skin as well as promoting the skin health. 2013 Thesis NonPeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/109527/1/109527.PDF The effects of natural emollient oily gel application on biophysical skin parameters / Nurul Najmi Muhammad.
