아시아 피부에서 기존 미백 평가방법과 이미지 분석방법의 비교연구 (비타민 C 제형의 이온토포레시스 연구) A Comparison Study Between Image Analysis and Conventional Methods in the Evaluation of Asian Skin Color원문보기
최근까지 Chromameter$^{(R)}$ CR-400, Mexameter$^{(R)}$ M18 그리고 육안평가는 피부색 평가를 위한 주된 평가방법으로 이용되어 왔다. 하지만 본 연구를 통해 피부색의 변화를 평가할 수 있는 객관성 있는 평가방법으로 이미지 분석을 제안하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 세 가지의 기존 평가방법의 변수들과 이미지 분석을 통해 얻은 V (Value) 값을 이용하여 미백 인체 효능평가를 수행하고 변수들 사이의 상관성을 분석하여 이미지 분석의 신뢰성을 확보하고자 하였다. 효능 평가를 위해 과색소침착으로 고민하는 34명의 시험 대상자를 모집하였고 선정된 시험 대상자들은 8주간의 시험기간 동안 vitamin C가 함유된 5 종류의 미백 화장품을 사용하는 동시에 일주일에 1회 전기이온영동(iontophoresis) 시술을 받았다. 제품 사용 및 시술 전과 8주 후 기존 평가 변수들과 V 값 측정결과를 비교하고 각 변수들 사이의 상관성을 분석한 결과, 제품 사용 및 시술 8주 후 V 값은 Chromameter$^{(R)}$의 $L^*$ 값의 경향과 유사하게 증가하였으며, $L^*$ 값과는 양의 상관관계를 보이는 것을 확인하였다(r = 0.494, p < 0.01). 또한, Mexameter$^{(R)}$의 MI 값(r = - 0.683, p < 0.01)과 육안평가 측정 값(r = - 0.549, p < 0.01)은 V 값과 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 따라서 이미지 분석의 V 값의 활용은 기존의 평가방법과 더불어 주관적인 육안평가의 한계를 보완할 수 있는 신뢰성 있는 미백평가 방법의 하나라고 생각된다.

Until recently, the three conventional evaluation methods, which are instrumental (Chromameter$^{(R)}$ CR-400 and Mexameter$^{(R)}$ M18) and visual assessments have been used frequently for skin color evaluation. However, we took notice the potential of image analysis as a new tool to evaluate color change of skin. To reveal the reliability of the image analysis for the evaluation of whitening agents, 34 healthy female volunteers with hyperpigmentation were recruited, and the selected volunteers applied the whitening products containing Vitamin C twice a day in the morning and evening and received iontophoresis treatments once a week for 8 weeks. The changes in hyperpigmentation evaluated by Chromameter$^{(R)}$, Mexameter$^{(R)}$ and visual assessment were compared with the results from the image analysis. As with $L^*$ value trends of the analysis using Chromameter$^{(R)}$, the V value from the image analysis increased after applying the test products compared with baseline values. Furthermore, V value showed a positive correlation with $L^*$ value (r = 0.494, p < 0.01) and negative correlation with MI (r = - 0.683, p < 0.01) and VG (r = - 0.549, p < 0.01). Therefore, image analysis may be considered as an effective method to complement the limitations of visual assessment for whitening efficacy in Asians.

문제 정의
The purpose of this study was to confirm the reliability and effectiveness of image analysis in the evaluation of Asian skin color.
제안 방법
After 8 weeks of treatment (whitening products and iontophoresis), the hyperpigmented lesions of the subjects showed improvement when evaluated with the three conventional methods (Chromameter®, Mexameter® and visual assessment).
All subjects applied the appropriate amount of the five kinds of whitening products on the entire face twice a day in the morning and evening. For all subjects, iontophoresis treatments with Vitamin C were conducted weekly for 8 weeks in our laboratory.
CR-400, Minolta, Japan) is a widely used device in the field of cosmetic research that transfers the colors recognized by human eyes into digital codes consisting of three parameters. Hyperpig-mentation was assessed by measuring the L* , a* and b* values of the test areas selected by the dermatologist at baseline and after 8 weeks. The L* parameter represents color brightness between the values of 100 for a white surface and 0 for a black surface.
The parameters of the conventional whitening evaluation methods (Chromameter® , Mexameter ® and visual assessment) representing skin brightness were improved after an 8 week application process of the test products.
The selected test areas (1 × 1 cm 2 ) were evaluated using instrumental analysis, visual assessment and image analysis at the initial visit and after 8 weeks.
The skin color of the test areas was evaluated by two dermatologists using VG (0: none, 1: none / mild hyperpigmention, 2: mild hyperpigmention, 3: mild / moderate hyperpigmention, 4: moderate hyperpigmention, 5: moderate / severe hyperpigmention, 6: severe hyperpigmention, 7: very severe hyperpigmention). The skin color of each subject was evaluated at the initial visit and after 8 weeks with VG.
To assess if there is a relationship between the three parameters of the whitening evaluation methods and the image analysis parameter, their correlations were analyzed (Table 2).
대상 데이터
The 34 subjects were healthy, Asian female volunteers with hyperpigmentation, aged 30 - 60 (43.75 ± 4.84 years) and each subject gave the informed consent in writing.
데이터처리
In order to determine the relationship between L*, MI, VG and V value measured by image analysis, Pearson and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient test was conducted.
The changes of the values in each evaluation method were analyzed using repeated Measures ANOVA. In order to determine the relationship between L*, MI, VG and V value measured by image analysis, Pearson and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient test was conducted.
The skin color of each subject was evaluated at the initial visit and after 8 weeks with VG. The level of agreement between the two dermatologists was compared using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
성능/효과
Additionally, although the correlation coefficient between MI and VG was not very high (r = 0.476, p < 0.01), it showed a statistically significant positive correlation.
