Abstract

Dermal blood vessels play a critical role in cutaneous homeostasis involved in the skin’s appearance. To elucidate the role of dermal vessels in skin beauty, we have been conducting many investigations with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), whose use includes the analysis of skin’s superficial vascular plexuses. This presentation will highlight some of our results and show the effects of the following three factors on both skin vascularity and appearance: Short-term ultraviolet ray exposure, solar lentigo and facial aging. From our studies, future applications of OCTA may be beneficial in the cosmetic and medical fields.
