Abstract :
[en] The frontier between the human body and the
environment is largely represented by the stratum corneum.
It is obvious that the skin aspect on some body sites appears
dry and rough in some predisposed individuals during winter
season. The reductions in the outdoor temperature, ambient
moisture and dew point are the main physical factors involved
in this process. We present the aspects seen under ultraviolet
light and scanning electron microscopy.
Keywords : Stratum corneum - Dew point
