| 摘要: | 國際溫泉醫學領域有關泥漿溫泉的研究指出，泥漿溫泉除可舒緩疼痛外，對牛皮癬、過敏性皮膚炎、白癜風和濕疹等皮膚疾病的療癒效果也廣受肯定。相對地，根據日據文獻記載，關子嶺泥漿溫泉也具有皮膚病療癒作用。近期科學研究發現，使用關子嶺泥漿溫泉直接進行人體手背部位皮膚塗敷後，有改善皮膚粗糙度、毛孔大小、皮膚斑點等效果，研究也指出關子嶺泥漿溫泉對於色素及乳蛋白具有吸附結合作用。本研究進一步以關子嶺泥漿溫泉美容角度進行研究設計，並輔以高嶺土為對照組。研究受試對象以自願報名方式，徵選年齡分佈18至25歲之大專院校女性自願受試者，合計16名，進行臉部護膚美容效益暨皮膚潔淨之作用機制評估實驗。研究進行分為兩部份：（1）溫泉泥作用評估基礎研究；（2）關子嶺泥漿溫泉及高嶺土臉部護膚應用研究。基礎研究利用分光光度計進行檢測關子嶺泥漿溫泉在各個濃度（0.001%、0.01%、0.1%、0.5%、1%）下，對色素及乳清蛋白之吸附和清除效果。結果顯示，關子嶺泥漿溫泉在0.001%以上對色素及乳清蛋白具有吸附和清除效果。對照組高嶺土在0.001%以上對色素及乳清蛋白具有吸附和清除效果。應用研究，則使用Visia全臉膚質測定儀測定膚質。受試者首先進行臉部肌膚清洗乾淨後，進行泥漿敷面15分鐘，分別檢測其立即性和長期使用效果。結果顯示，在立即性使用關子嶺泥漿溫泉敷面後，對於縮小毛孔（使用前為104.25±23.82，使用後為90.81±21.29）、皮膚紋理（使用前為111.19±22.97，使用後為94.50±18.35），有些微改善但未達到顯著效益。相對地，高嶺土對於縮小毛孔（使用前為111.56±19.76，使用後為101.31±18.11）、皮膚紋理（使用前為113.31±20.28，使用後為101.13±19.17），也有些微改善但也未達到統計差異性，比較關子嶺泥漿溫泉和高嶺土之效益比較分析也無統計差異性。追?長期性使用關子嶺泥漿溫泉和高嶺土後，受試者膚質狀況的改善，也未達到顯著差異性。綜合本研究結果，關子嶺泥漿溫泉及高嶺土對色素及乳清蛋白都具有吸附和清除效果，但高嶺土對於吸附和清除效果比關子嶺泥漿溫泉更為顯著。敷面後，雖然整體膚質改善作用有輕微影響，但並沒有顯示出統計上的差異性，故有關關子嶺泥漿溫泉美容效益仍需再評估。
International hot spring research result had indicated that applying the clay therapy can relief pain and also can treat other skin diseases, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo and eczema. Recent scientific evidence indicated that directly used of Guanziling hot spring clay on the human skin have improved effect of skin roughness, pores size and skin spots. The other research have shown the cosmetic effects of Guanziling hot spring clay may produce by directly through adsorption binding of coloring and milk protein which remove it from skin surface. In this study, we were designed two categories experimental program, including basic and applying research procedure, to explain the possibility mechanism of cosmetic effects of Guanziling hot spring clay and compare with kaolin control group. Sixteen volunteers of age 18-25 years old female were divided into basic and applied research groups. In basic research group, there was using a spectrophotometer to detect the pigment and whey protein to assess the adsorption and removal effects of Guanziling hot spring clay in various concentrations (without, 0.001%, 0.01%, 0.1%, 0.5% and 1%). Results have shown that Guanziling hot spring clay at least 0.001% to produce adsorption and removal significant effects of pigment and whey protein. However, in the kaolin control group, which was higher than 0.001% that have significant in all testing group compared with without kaolin group. In applied research group, the full-face Visia skin analyzer was used to compare with before and after facial clay mask applying and to assess the skin spots, pores, wrinkles and texture for immediate or long-term used program. Results of immediate used of Guanziling facial clay mask applying group, there have shown slight effects on skin pores (before 104.25 ? 23.82; after 90.81 ? 21.29) and skin texture (before 111.19 ? 22.97; after 94.50 ? 18.35), but did not significant benefit to compare with before used. There was similar effects with Guanziling facial clay mask applying group, which of control kaolin group have shown slight effects on skin pore (before 111.56 ? 19.76; after 101.31 ? 18.11) and skin texture (before 113.31 ? 20.28; after 101.13 ? 19.17) , but also did not showed the statistical difference. Furthermore, tracking and comparing with the long-term applying groups of Guanziling facial clay mask applying group and control kaolin group, there also did not show statistical significant.Comprehensive of this study, Guanziling hot spring clay and kaolin have shown similar effects of the adsorption and removal mechanisms for pigment, collage and whey protein, but collage adsorption and removal effects of kaolin were stronger than Guanziling hot spring clay. The overall of this study, there is slight effect of facial clay mask applying groups to improve dermal cosmetics, but did not show statistical significant. There will need more detail studies to improve the cosmetic mechanisms of Guanziling hot spring clay. |
