In this embodiment, the controller 180 can generate the mist provided in the mist container as a mist suitable for the user's skin by using the electrolyzer based on the pH diagnosis result for the user's skin when performing the pre-treatment management. have. As the pH data for the user's skin exceeds the reference pH data, the mist is passed through the electrolyzer to obtain the generated alkaline mist toward the negative (-) pole, and the pH data for the user's skin is less than the reference pH data Accordingly, by passing the mist through the electrolyzer, it is possible to obtain the alkaline mist generated toward the positive (+) electrode.

In addition, when performing pre-treatment management, the controller 180 operates the thermoelectric element 108 as the moisture data on the user's skin exceeds the reference moisture data based on the moisture diagnosis result on the user's skin. It can dry moisture from the user's skin. In addition, as the moisture data for the user's skin is less than the reference moisture data, the controller 180 may spray the mist obtained to suit the user's skin.

In addition, the controller 180 performs pre-treatment management, based on the oil content diagnosis result for the user's skin, as the oil content data on the user's skin exceeds the reference oil content data, it is obtained suitable for the user's skin Mist can be sprayed.

When massaging the user's skin, the controller 180 may adjust the selected and received massage function in response to receiving a selection of one of a plurality of massage functions based on the re-diagnosed skin condition of the user. For example, the pulse amplitude of the pulse generator, the temperature when the thermoelectric element 108 generates heat, etc. may be adjusted. In addition, if moisture is still insufficient after spraying the mist, the skin conductivity may be low, so the pulse amplitude may be adjusted to be larger.

4A to 4B are exemplary views for explaining the determination of the user's skin contact by the beauty device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In the following description, parts overlapping with those of FIGS. 1 to 3 will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 4A , an example in which the head 101 of the beauty device 100 is in contact with the user's skin is shown. When the head 101 of the beauty device 100 comes into contact with the user's skin, an electric charge is generated in the sensing plate 101a provided inside the head 101 by standby power, and the skin detection sensor 107, capacitive sensor ) may measure the first charge sensed amount from the sensing plate 101a. The first sensing amount of charge may be a frequency in the form of a triangular wave, and by calculating the frequency in the form of a triangular wave, it is possible to determine whether or not the skin is in contact. Since the capacitance of the dielectric (C=εs/d, C: capacitance value, ε: permittivity, d: spacing of the sensing plate 101a, s: cross-sectional area of the sensing plate 101a) varies with temperature, the temperature compensation algorithm This can be added.

In the conventional case, when the set time is counted after applying the operating power, the operation is terminated, and the operating power is turned off while using the skin care device, which is inconvenient. However, in this embodiment, when the head 101 is in contact with the user's skin, the time is counted, and when the user's skin is released from the head 101, the time count is stopped, and the head 101 is in contact with the user's skin. You can resume time counting. Accordingly, by counting the actual use time and turning off the operation power when the set time elapses, the problem of the prior art in which the operation power is turned off while using the skin care device can be solved, and user convenience can be improved.
