Cosmetic therapy provides a psychological effect on the elderly, improving their self-confidence and social participation. This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of cosmetic therapy to enhance the self-esteem and reduce depression of elderly residents in long-term care institutions. We expect that a 6-week cosmetic therapy will improve the elderly's mental health, including depression and self-esteem.
