The present inventor relates to an electrochemical device for measuring the redox state of the skin, comprising at least one working electrode, such as a microelectrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode, said electrodes all being fixed into a single support intended to allow each of said electrodes to be simultaneously brought into contact with the surface of the skin to be tested, the electrodes being connected, on the one hand, to a means for imposing a defined voltage between the working electrode and the reference electrode, such as a potentiostat, and, or the other hand, to a device for measuring the intensity of the current generated at the working electrode by the detection of redox species. The invention also related to a method of measuring the redox state of the skin.
