摘要
Men's facial skin is ubiquitously affected by their shaving behaviors. Skin physiological parameters and the degree of discomfort were investigated on healthy Chinese male volunteers. The effect of immediate shaving and long-term shaving was compared, and more parameters such as skin integrity, pigmentation and texture were significantly influenced by long-term shaving. Sensory assessment also showed severer discomfort degree after long-term shaving. The results indicated that long-term shaving has more impact on skin condition than immediate shaving. Furthermore, the skin damage caused by shaving can be relieved by appropriate shaving care habits.
