About the Webinar

​​​​​​​Kihara has developed a novel molecular imaging method that allows natural moisturizing factor (NMF) distribution analysis across human face. By visualizing “invisible” molecular dynamics underlying skin homeostasis, deeper investigations of facial skin biology at the molecular level have become possible. The ultimate goal of the study is to provide consumers with site-specific and tailored facial-care products/programs using the distribution/composition information of NMF.
