Research Abstract |
The findings of this study suggest that the presence of skin problems, season, and age in months are factors influencing the epidermal barrier function (skin surface pH and content of water and oil) of babies. When epidermal barrier function before and after a skin washing was compared, the results varied depending on the presence of skin problems. We also found that if babies with skin problems were consistently treated with an appropriate a skin washing method, the skin problems improved in the early stage and skin acidity level became favorable.
