Abstract
Recently, dermatosis represented for atopic dermatitis has increased, it has required that characteristic of the skin are quantitatively evaluated. The purpose of this study was quantitatively evaluated the dynamic characteristic of the skin, and to measure the indentation load and the frequency shifts that required from the difference between material acoustic impedance, and to compare the dynamic characteristic of the healthy skin and the atopic skin. As a results, the indentation load was different in the every individual, and it showed the difference the frequency shifts in the healthy male skin and the healthy female skin and the atopic skin. In comparison with the water contents of horny layer measuring the capacitance, the frequency shifts became decreased when the water contents was increased.
