This study distributed 350questionnaires randomly to men in their 20 s and 30 s, in Gwangjin-Gu, Seoul and used 309 as the final analysis of theresearch, excluding 41 incomplete surveys. Data analysis was done by utilizing a statistical package program, SPSSWINver. 18.0, including frequency analysis, item internal consistency reliability (Chronbach’s α), factor analysis, ANOVA, andt- test. The result of this study showed that difference of eating habits and nutritional quality of men with acne and normalskin has proven to be statistically effective in terms of the average difference based on eating habits (vitamin & protein,dietary), and it showed that average difference is not statistically effective in eating habit (sodium). Second, it appearedthat the average difference for current skin care behavior between two groups is statistically effective, and normal skincare group has higher skin care management scores. Third, the analysis that is aimed to figure out whether eating habit(Sodium, vitamin & protein, dietary) has positive effect on skin condition showed that eating habit (hazardous effect) haspositive effect on the skin condition, and reducing hazardous factors such as (sugar, junk food, flour, fat) contributes toimprovement of skin condition. Fourth, it appeared that skin care management behavior does not have positive effect onskin condition. Fifth, the analysis that is aimed to figure out whether eating (Sodium, vitamin & protein, dietary) factor haspositive effect on skin condition showed eating habit (dietary) factor has positive effect on skin care management behavior,and a person with high dietary scores also has higher skin care management scores. Sixth, for the improvement of skinhealth for adult male acne, we have provided proper eating-food reference table as the utizliation of beauty salon customermanagement program in order to increase sales in beauty industry. Since the study shows that as people improve dietaryand skin care management, it can contribute to positive effect in acne, the relationship of dietary, skin management, andskin condition is a crucial factor to acne. Limitation of this study was that since age and residence of survey participantswere not evenly distributed, studies were not sufficient enough to generalize the result. In the future, we will select andanalyze participants with more even ages and residence, and conduct survey by performing comparative studies aboutcharacteristics of acne triggering causes and specifically presenting a scheme for prevention and mitigation of acne.
