Switzerland has one of the highest rates of skin diseases and particularly skin cancer, in Europe. Skin elastosis, roughness and atopy are also frequent. High UV exposure and prevalence of light skin individuals could be the cause. Valais, in Southern Switzerland, is a mountain region with elevated sun irradiation and low air humidity, an ideal location to study the effect of the environment and life style on skin biophysical characteristics. The purpose of the study was to measure skin biophysical parameters non-invasively on healthy subjects living in Valais, and to correlate the measures with their life style.
