Aesthetic medicine does not stand still, and today every doctor has at his disposal a huge number of rejuvenation methods. However, it is important to evaluate the individual patient before selecting the appropriate anti-aging therapy.
Understanding the actual condition of the skin allows the doctor to clearly determine which rejuvenation methods are required for a particular person. Read on estet-portal.com how to properly evaluate skin quality, and what methods are used for this.
Basic parameters that determine the quality of leather
In order to understand the state of a person's skin, it is necessary to evaluate such parameters as:
• skin hydration level;
• embossing and texture;
• skin color and the presence of pigmentary changes;
• skin pH;
• level of sebum secretion;
• degree of transepidermal water loss.
The most important indicator of skin quality is its level of hydration.
Low hydration is one of the main causes of premature aging.
For low hydration rates, biorevitalization is the best therapy.
Juvederm® HYDRATE™ from of the company "Allergan", because it has a powerful hydrating effect.

Basic methods for assessing skin hydration
Today, skin quality assessment methods are actively used in medical practice to select the best products for skin rejuvenation.
Hydration of the skin affects its relief, mechanical properties, lipid and water balance. With an increase in the moisture content in the stratum corneum of the epidermis, a change in its lipid structure is also observed.
An indirect method for assessing hydration – monitor skin exfoliation as a certain level of moisture is needed to maintain natural desquamation processes.
The more peeling of the skin – the less its hydration.
Corneometry is a direct method for assessing the hydration of the horny epidermis. This technique is based on the change in the dielectric properties of the skin depending on the moisture content in the stratum corneum.

Methods for studying the lipid balance of the skin
The normal functioning of the sebaceous glands ensures the existence of the hydrolipidic mantle of the skin. In this regard, the assessment of sebum secretion also makes it possible to judge the quality of the skin. For this, the sebumetry method is used. Estimation of sebum secretion is carried out with a special device. In order to get the most accurate result, one hour before the sebumetry, you need to clean the skin with an alcohol-containing solution.

Evaluation of the main mechanical parameters of the skin
Changes in the mechanical parameters of the skin are directly related to aging, because with age, degradation of collagen and elastin fibers occurs, which leads to a loss of skin tone and elasticity.
To assess the biomechanical properties of the skin, methods such as:
• ballistometry (indentation method);
• cutometry (suction method);
• tensiometry (stretching method);
• torsiometry (torsion method).
With age, the skin becomes less elastic, and therefore the main task of a specialist in aesthetic medicine is to maintain its tone. For this, various dermal fillers can be used, among which
Juvederm® Volite from Allergan, which not only helps to eliminate wrinkles, but also helps to improve the quality of the skin.
