Evaluation of Physical Parameters of Skin by Consecutive Ultrasonic Image Processing During Ultraviolet Radiation in an Animal Model of Wrinkled Skin

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Skin aging is divided into two categories of intrinsic and extrinsic aging. Skin aging due to repeated exposure to ultraviolet radiation (extrinsic aging) is different from aging caused by time (intrinsic aging). The appearance of wrinkles caused by sunlight is due to subcu...
