Abstract
The application of optical clearing agents on skin allows for controlling the optical properties of skin and, thus, for enhancement of optical probing depth. However, optical clearing agents can affect skin hydration, which is an important parameter critical for maintaining healthy skin conditions. This presentation presents results of investigation of optical clearing influence on the water content in the skin using confocal Raman spectroscopy.
