Cold Atmospheric Plasma Inhibits Lipogenesis and Proliferation of Human Sebocytes and Decreases Sebum Production in Human Facial Skin

Figure 1

Effects of argon- and nitrogen-NTAPP pulses on facial sebum excretion in subjects with oily skin. The casual sebum level (a) and the sebum excretion rate (b) were measured using a Sebumeter at the baseline and at follow-up visits on weeks 2, 4, and 8. Values are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM; n = 14). Data were analyzed by Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test (, , vs. the baseline).
