Abstract
Auretek is the first of its kind portable Confocal Raman Spectroscopy (CRS) system equipped with fiber based handheld probe, that cascades dual-wavelength lasers. With its flexible probe, Auretek can acquire CRS data of skin from various parts of the human body with depth profiling. A clinical study was conducted to investigate the effects of ceramide-based moisturizer (CBM) on skin physiology and biochemistry. Quantitative skin component characterization in different epidermal layers was done with spectral unmixing analysis of the CRS data. Even though the analysis revealed a significant increase in ceramide content on the side of CBM application, the increase was in the layers within the stratum corneum.
