Zusammenfassung: | Objective
To confirm the robustness and validity of an automatic scoring system, algorithm‐based, that grades the severity of nine facial signs through “selfies” smartphones pictures taken by European Caucasian women through dermatological assessments.
Methods
157 Caucasian women from three countries (France, Germany, Spain), of different ages (20–75 years), took one “selfie” image by the frontal camera of their smartphones whereas local dermatologists photographed them with the back camera of the same smartphone. The same nine facial signs of these subjects were initially graded by these local dermatologists, using referential Skin Aging Atlases. All 314 “selfies” images were then further automatically analyzed by the algorithm. The severity of facial signs (wrinkles, pigmentation, ptosis, skin folds etc.) were statistically compared to the assessments made by the three dermatologists, taken as ground truth.
Results
Highly significant coefficients of correlation (P |
