Abstract(s)
A pele desempenha funções vitais ao bom funcionamento do corpo humano. Para que mantenha a sua função, requer cuidados específicos, nomeadamente ao nível da hidratação e anti-envelhecimento.
Em termos de cuidados com a pele, o rosto é, em geral, mais tido em consideração. Para garantir uma pele saudável, os cuidados a adotar devem ser adaptados ao tipo de pele e suas características.
O Farmacêutico Comunitário deve adquirir competências que lhe permitam aconselhar adequadamente. Hoje em dia, com o desenvolvimento tecnológico, a simples observação a olho nu do estado da pele e respetiva classificação pelo farmacêutico pode ser complementada com uma avaliação mais pormenorizada e objetiva, através do recurso a equipamentos sofisticados de avaliação da pele.
É objetivo deste trabalho estudar o estado da pele, especialmente quanto à hidratação e envelhecimento, de uma amostra de utentes em farmácia comunitária. Para tal, avaliou-se o estado da pele a olho nu e com recurso a ao equipamento IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀, numa amostra de utentes selecionados de forma oportunística. A avaliação da pele foi precedida de um questionário.
A amostra incluiu 13 utentes. Do total de avaliados, segundo o equipamento IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀, 13 tinham uma hidratação aceitável (pontuação entre 1 e 4). Sinais de envelhecimento, como linhas finas na zona da testa e em redor dos olhos, foram identificados em 6 e 8 participantes respetivamente, sendo classificados num estado intermédio e estado mais grave (pontuação ≥ 10). Rugas de expressão e perda de firmeza foram identificadas em 6 participantes, classificados com pontuação intermédia, constituindo os outros fatores de envelhecimento identificados.
O IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀 mostrou ser uma ferramenta complementar na avaliação da pele e seus diferentes parâmetros, de forma quantitativa. Tal auxilia e complementa o trabalho do farmacêutico permitindo-o exercer uma avaliação mais cuidada e pormenorizada da pele e, consequentemente, melhor aconselhar.
The skin performs vital functions for the proper functioning of the human body. In order to maintain its function, it requires specific care, particularly in terms of hydration and anti-aging. In terms of skin care, the face is generally more taken into consideration. To ensure healthy skin, the care to be taken must be adapted to the type of skin and its characteristics. Community Pharmacist must acquire skills that enable to advise properly. Nowadays, with the technological development, the simple observation of the state of the skin and its classification by the pharmacist can be complemented by a more detailed and objective assessment using sophisticated skin evaluation equipment. The objective of this work is to study the condition of the skin, especially regarding hydration and aging, of a sample of community pharmacy users. To this end, the condition of the skin was evaluated by naked eye and using the IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀 device in a sample of opportunistically selected users. Skin evaluation was preceded by a questionnaire. The sample included 13 participants. Of the total evaluated, according to the IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀, 13 had an acceptable hydration (between 1 and 4 points). Signs of aging, such as fine lines on forehead area and around the eyes were identified in 6 and 8 participants respectively, whose score is placed in the intermediate situation as in the situation where score is more severe (≥ 10 points). Expression wrinkles and loss of firmness were noticed in 6 participants, classified with intermediate score, constituting the other identified aging factors. The IOMA 𝑀𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟𝑇𝑀 has showed to be a complementary tool for skin evaluation and its different parameters in a quantitative way. This helps and complements pharmacist's job and allows to perform a more thorough and detailed skin evaluation and therefore better advise.
