Cutometer® Probe for Skin Elasticity Measurement

The Cutometer® with skin elasticity measurement has been a standard cosmetics measurement tool for over 35 years. In fact, due to its ease of use and accuracy, the Cutometer® probe is the most internationally used machine in cutting-edge skin elasticity research. Also, the innovative software provides even more benefits, improving the quality and effortlessness of your work.

The skin has various mechanical properties that are essential to its elasticity on multiple levels. Physiologically, these properties provide flexibility and strength. They are also critical to our emotional and social well-being, keeping us looking youthful if appropriately maintained. These facts are why skin elasticity measurement tools like the Cutometer® are vital to understanding and treating problems with skin elasticity.

Where to use:

Cutometer® Probe for Skin Elasticity Measurement

  • the primary measurement tool for all cosmetic applications;
  • necessary for all formulations, claims support and efficacy testing of cosmetic products, especially anti-cellulite, anti-aging, and firmness enhancing products;
  • essential to basic dermatological research; and
  • Skin Elasticity tests can be used to determine elasticity in other materials, like food and textiles.

How does Cutometer® work?

The Cutometer®’s measuring principle is founded on a negative pressure suction method. A pump inside the device produces negative pressure, a small skin sample into a measuring probe. Once the suction is turned off, the skin attempts to revert to its previous state.

A contact-free optical method records the skin’s penetration depth inside the measuring probe. This optical measurement system is made of a receiver diode and a light source. It also has two Cutometer® principle mirror prisms directing a light beam from a transmitter to a receiver. The incoming light intensity depends on the skin’s penetration depth into the probe.
