Kang, Hyun Mi Major in Skincare and Obesity Management Graduate School of Lifetime Welfare Sungshin Women's University

This study intends to compare and analyze skin's moisture, fraction (U zone, T zone), roughness, pore size, pore distribution, pigment, wrinkle, sebum quantity and pimple improvement after the measurement, investigate subjective evaluation for the care effects after the experiment and verify the improvement of pimple skin so as to examine the effectiveness of pimple skin care with enzyme powder of complex component. The object of study was 20 people who have pimple skin such as comedoneㆍpapuleㆍpustuleㆍnodule, etc. on their face and adult women in 20~30s, living in Seoul and Gyeonggi area was divided into 10 people for body care (experiment group) and 10 people for facial care (control group).

For the experiment, all of objects apply enzyme preparations which liquidize enzyme powder of complex component on their face in the morning and evening for the home-care of everyday after the usual washing-up. In the evening, only experiment group applies it to the whole body additionally and takes abdomen massage once a week.

For the skin measurement, the number of comedoneㆍpapuleㆍpustuleㆍnodule, etc. was recorded by shooting the part of pimple and taking pimple treatment from experts before experiment, after 3 weeks and after 6 weeks. And, moisture, fraction (U zone, T zone), roughness, pore size, pore distribution, pigment, wrinkle, sebum quantity, etc. were measured and questionnaire was written so as to examine subjective evaluation for using effects. As the result of analysis, there were the below results.

The first, in the result of comparing changes of skin situation after the experiment, the moisture of experiment group was 13.3%, the value of increased, but there was not significant change statistically. And, friction (U zoneㆍT zone) and roughness were 33.6%, 36.7%, 29.1% respectively and they were reduced significantly and statistically (p<0.001) as well as pore size and pore distribution were 55.4%, 43.9% and they were significantly reduced statistically (p<0.01), (p<0.05). Pigment was 26.9%, the value reduced statistically (p<0.001), and wrinkle was 16.3%, the value reduced, but there was not significant change statistically. Sebum quantity was 27.1% and it was statistically reduced significantly (p<0.05).

The moisture of control group was 3.5%, the value increased, but there was not significant change statistically and fraction (U zone) and roughness were 24.0%, 24.1% respectively and they were reduced statistically and significantly (p<0.01). And, fraction (T zone), pore size, pore distribution, pigment, wrinkle and sebum quantity were 25.4%, 35.4%, 34.3%, 15.6%, 10.3%, 21.3% respectively, but there was not significant change statistically.

In the comparison bewteen two groups, moisture of experiment was 13.3% and that of control group was 3.5%. Therefore, experiment group showed increased value more greatly than control group, so there was significant change statistically (p<0.01). And, pigment of experiment group was 26.9% and that of control group was 15.6%, so experiment group showed reduced value more greatly than control group, so there was significant difference (p<0.05).

For fraction (U zoneㆍT zone), roughness, pore size, pore distribution, wrinkle and sebum quantity, experiment group showed reduced value more greatly than control group, but it was not significant statistically. In both experiment group and control group, pore size was reduced the most greatly.

The second, in the change of pimple situation, experiment group showed 58.7%, reduced comedone, so there was significant change statistically (p<0.001) and papuleㆍpustuleㆍnodule were reduced to 69.1%, 82.0%, 93.4% respectively, so there was significant change statistically (p<0.01). Control group showed 47.9%, reduced comedone, there was significant change statistically (p<0.001), papule was reduced to 46.3%, but there was not significant change. Pustuleㆍnodule were reduced to 65.0%, 70.0% respectively, so there was significant change statistically (p<0.05).

In the comparison of changes between two groups, comedone was 58.7% for experiment group and 47.9% for control group, so experiment was reduced more greatly than control group, so there was significant change statistically (p<0.05). And, for papuleㆍpustuleㆍnodule, experiment group was reduced in comparison with control group, but there was not significant change statistically. Both experiment and control group showed the greatest change for nodule.

The third, in the subjective evaluation for experimental effects, the whole evaluation was positive, but it was not significant statistically. And, experiment group (M=3.87) showed higher experimental effects than control group (M=3.50). In sub-questions, satisfaction showed significant difference between two groups (p<0.05) and experiment group (M=4.00) showed higher evaluation for satisfaction than control group (M=3.40). For the improvements of elasticity, redness (sensitiveness), skin texture (roughness), pore status, infection, number of pimple, there was not significant difference statistically, but experiment group showed higher value in all items than control group.

If synthesizing the results of this study, enzyme powder of complex component showed clear effects for facial skin care changes and pimple skin improvement. If measuring after the using for a long time, the results better than expected value will be shown.

The object of this study is limited to pimple skin of 20 women in 20~30s and it is verified to be effective for pimple skin. But, there were limitations that individual differences such as individual pimple characteristics and physical environment, etc. were not considered and life, eating habit, exercising custom, skin care habit, stress, etc. of all objects were not controled. So, the results of experiment cannot be generalized, but it will be the more useful suggestion of skin and pimple improvements if conducting following studies by controlling the limitations more deeply and multilaterally.

Therefore, by suggesting positive effects for the improvement of facial pimple skin with enzyme powder of complex component through this study, it should be helpful for pimple skin care program and improvement of various typed skin.
