    Study Notes

    EpiBlading Training Notice: Key Points

    • EpiBlading is a non-invasive, painless treatment that involves gentle mechanical exfoliation using a special butter blade held at a 45-degree angle.
    • The treatment stimulates cellular turnover, increases fibroblast activity, hydration, collagen, elastin, and circulation, and temporarily removes vellus hair.
    • EpiBlading is suitable for various skin concerns such as dull or dry skin, uneven complexion, enlarged pores, fine lines, scarring, and vellus hair removal.
    • Absolute contraindications for EpiBlading include active infections, cold sores, inflamed or broken skin, uncontrolled diabetes, contagious skin disorders, cancer, and certain medications.
    • The initial consultation is important to understand the client's goals, explain the procedure, and recommend appropriate home care products.
    • Fitzpatrick skin type classification is commonly used to determine a person's response to sun exposure and can help guide EpiBlading treatment.
    • Lanugo hair is the first type of hair that grows on a fetus, while vellus hair is the light, short, fine hair that covers much of a person's body.
    • Terminal hair is longer, thicker, and darker hair that grows on the head and other parts of the body after puberty.
    • Both vellus and terminal hairs have three growth phases: anagen (active growth), catagen (transition), and telogen (resting).
    • EpiBlading offers physical exfoliation, removes vellus hair, increases product penetration, and is safe for telangiectasia.
    • Proper hand position and maintaining a 45-degree angle during EpiBlading are important for optimal results and precise control of the blade.
    • It is important to use correct single-use, surgical blades for EpiBlading and dispose of them in medical sharps waste.
