The system has a device for measuring sizes of the skin pores, in which a photograph taken by the video microscope is compared to a reference image of the skin pores stored in the computer and the result is output through the output device(6). Also, the system has a device for measuring the peeling levels of the stratum corneous, in which a photograph taken by the video microscope is compared to a reference image of the stratum corneous stored in the computer and the result is output through the output device(6). In addition, the system has devices for measuring the color(2) and the oil(3) and moisture(4) level of the skin, in which the respective measured values are compared to reference values stored in the computer and the results are output through the output device(6).
