At WeTreatFeet Podiatry, we understand the importance of maintaining healthy skin hydration levels for optimal foot health. Recent studies have highlighted the significance of accurate skin hydration measurement tools, such as the Corneometer CM825 and the DermaStat models. In this blog post, we will explain why partnering with us benefits our patients and how our expertise in foot care ensures you receive the best possible treatment.
Understanding Skin Hydration Measurement Tools
Skin hydration is crucial for preventing conditions like xerosis, which can lead to flaking, roughness, and increased susceptibility to cracks and fissures. Two key tools used in measuring skin hydration are:
- Corneometer CM825: This device is widely regarded as the gold standard for measuring skin hydration due to its accuracy and reliability. It uses capacitance to quantify moisture levels in the skin’s outermost layer, the stratum corneum.
- DermaStat Models: These devices, available in short and long-handled versions, are designed specifically for measuring skin hydration on the foot. They offer flexibility and ease of use, making them suitable for both clinical and research settings.
Recent Study Findings
A recent study assessed the agreement between the Corneometer CM825 and the DermaStat models. The results showed a moderate to very strong positive agreement between the DermaStat devices and the Corneometer CM825 at most skin sites, except for a few instances where correlations were weak or non-significant. This study highlights the importance of using reliable tools for accurate skin hydration measurement.
