Findings from the study were published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology . In the first of a series of 2 studies, researchers measured electrical capacitance and transepidermal water loss at baseline, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after a single DFM30 application, as well as on a control site in healthy women with dry skin (n=21).
