In medical examination of skin texture, an expert is generally needed to examine the skin texture thoroughly. It is felt that the same can be achieved through image processing, wherein a skin expert or physical presence of the patient are not needed on the spot. In the distant skin examination, expertise is required in analyzing the skin texture as appeared on the image. The texture is evaluated on the basis of oiliness of the skin, which is measured by a specific instrument [5]. As per our knowledge, the instrument is not readily available. To overcome this problem, a framework (SA-OILINESS) is proposed in this paper. It is designed so as to provide a scale to measure oiliness of facial skin through an image of a standard resolution. The proposed approach is based on the principle that the intensity of light from an oily skin is comparatively higher than that from a dry skin. Images of test subjects are taken at the same time and using the approach of weighted mean of the intensity of light reflected from the marked forehead region a scale of oiliness is developed. The scale is used to measure the relative value of oiliness.
