Description

Flament and co-authors report in 2024 a large international survey of how skin concerns affect self confidence in men. The letter opens by rejecting the stereotype that men care little for skin. Norms of toughness have long pushed skin care toward women in public view, the authors note.

The survey ran from February 2022 to June 2023 with 5,138 men aged 18 and older across five countries, the United States and India the largest groups. Skin type, sensitivity, and self reported concerns were set against confidence scores. The study is cast as the first international work of its kind on men's skin concerns.
