Sensitive and accurate skin surface hydration meter
MoistureMeterSC
The MoistureMeterSC is a portable, wireless skin moisture analyzer that delivers fast, accurate skin surface hydration readings in seconds.
MoistureMeterSC – Sensitive and easy-to-use skin surface hydration meter
MoistureMeterSC is an easy-to-use, fully portable and wireless skin hydration measurement instrument. Measuring skin hydration in the stratum corneum has never been easier. This skin moisture meter makes it simple to analyze skin hydration levels for cosmetic and skin research purposes.
Skin surface hydration is a function of two variables: moisture held in the stratum corneum and the thickness of the stratum corneum’s dry layer. The MoistureMeterSC uses a precise (1.25 MHz) electromagnetic field to measure the skin’s dielectric constant which takes both variables into account, giving more accurate results than other skin moisture detector devices.
Benefits
- Non-sensitive to electrolytes of formulations
- Built-in pressure sensor for consistent, reproducible and user-independent skin surface hydration measurements
- Small and lightweight for easy handling

MoistureMeterSC measures skin surface hydration accurately and quickly. It provides objective readings in seconds, making it an essential tool in dermatology, cosmetic testing, and clinical research.
Monitoring skin hydration is crucial in dermatology and cosmetic science. It helps evaluate treatment outcomes, assess barrier function, and provide evidence of cosmetic product performance such as moisturizers, cleansers, or barrier-repair formulations.
The MoistureMeterSC provides the same type of surface skin hydration measurement as traditional corneometers (corneometry), while offering fast, wireless, and reproducible readings. It combines the proven principles of corneometry with modern sensor technology, making it a reliable, portable solution for dermatology and cosmetic research.
MoistureMeterSC is a surface hydration analyzer, focusing on skin moisture at the outermost level. The MoistureMeterD Compact is a universal instrument that assesses tissue water and edema in both skin and upper subcutis, making it better suited for deeper tissue analysis and swelling studies.
MoistureMeterSC measures surface hydration at the outermost layer of the skin, while the MoistureMeterEpiD is designed to measure deeper hydration at the epidermal level.
MoistureMeterSC is ideal for surface hydration measurements. For assessing tissue water content at multiple depths, Delfin offers the Multiprobe MoistureMeterD, which measures from 0.5 to 5.0 mm below the skin surface.
The MoistureMeterSC is designed to measure moisture specifically within the stratum corneum (the outermost skin layer) providing consistent results regardless of variations in its thickness.
