Study Notes
Lymphatic System
- Removes wastes, balances fluids, and supports immunity
- Supports immune health by transporting lymph containing white blood cells that fight infection
- Key components include lymph nodes (filtering lymph and trapping pathogens), lymph vessels (carrying lymph), spleen (filtering blood, supporting immunity), thymus (producing T-cells for immune defense), tonsils (trapping bacteria and viruses).
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
- A special massage that removes waste matter through the lymphatic system.
- Prevents toxic build-up
- Primary benefits include detoxification, constipation relief, reduced swelling, improved healing, reduction of edema, and relaxation from nervous tension, depression, and fatigue.
- Performed with rhythmic, light pressure movements along lymph pathways.
- 5 conditions that benefit from MLD are lymphedema, post-surgery recovery, chronic venous insufficiency, fibromyalgia and sinus congestion.
- Contraindicated in diabetes (affects circulation and healing/may interfere with blood sugar regulation, aggravate skin sensitivity and infections) and pregnancy (unpredictable fluid shifts or pressure changes that could harm mother or baby.)
Interstitial Fluid
- Formed in blood, more watery than blood, surrounding cells delivering nutrients and oxygen.
- Collects waste.
- Related to swelling and edema due to poor drainage or excess production when the lymphatic system cannot remove fluid efficiently.
- Drains into lymph vessels to become lymph.
Client Consultation
- Essential for treatment safety, effectiveness, and tailoring to client's needs.
- Identifies medical conditions, allergies, and contraindications.
- Understanding client goals and concerns allows for better recommendations.
- Components include medical history, lifestyle, skin analysis goals, and consent.
- Prescriptions or home care recommendations should match client needs, goals, and skin.
- Documenting medical history and lifestyle during consultations is important to ensure treatments are safe and avoid adverse reactions, and to tailor treatments to match client's needs. It also helps track progress and build trust.
High Frequency
- Unknown from the provided text.
Skincare Treatment - High Frequency
- Uses mild electrical currents to produce oxygen-enriched vibrations.
- Stimulates circulations, increases cell renewal, and delivers antibacterial effects.
- Primary uses include treating acne, minimizing fine lines, improving blood flow reducing puffiness and dark circles.
- Two types of electrodes exist; Argon (violet) for acne and antibacterial effects, and Neon (orange/red) for aging skin and stimulation of circulation.
- Contraindications include highly anxious clients, heart disease, pregnancy, circulatory disorders, and hepatitis.
- Benefits on acne-prone skin include reducing bacteria, calming inflammation, and boosting healing.
- Serums and ampoules are used for intensive or concentrated treatments; serums are lighter and used daily, and ampoules offer deeper penetration. Active ingredients in serums include hyaluronic acid (hydration) Vitamin C (brightening, protection), and Niacinamide (reducing redness, strengthening skin barrier).
Circulatory System
- The heart and blood vessels make up the circulatory system.
- A double circulatory system; right side handles deoxygenated blood and the left side handles oxygenated blood.
- Blood travels through blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries).
- The heart has four chambers (2 atria, 2 ventricles).
Face Mapping
- Divides the face into 14 zones to analyze skin concerns and identify underlying causes related to lifestyle, health, and environmental factors.
Aging Skin / Chronological Aging/ Biological Aging
- Skin becomes coarser, linked wrinkles, tissue becomes flabby (tone loss), pigmented changes, duller complexion.
- Breakdown of elastin occurs (1% per year), droopy skin, loss of collagen and elastin
- Sun damage, facial lines and wrinkles, elastosis, hyperpigmentation, lack of oil and dryness, dehydration.
- Elastosis more apparent, nasolabial folds and deep facial wrinkles, sagging, menopause.
- Chronological aging is the passage of time, biological aging reflects cumulative damage to cells.
- Factors of biological aging include lifestyle, genetics, disease, health of cells and proper/poor nutrition.
Pigmentation
- Refers to the color of skin, hair, and eyes.
- Primarily determined by melanin produced by melanocytes (specialized cells in the epidermis).
- Changes in skin color necessitate assessment by a medical professional for diagnosis and treatment.
- Melanocytes produce/store melanin, the pigment that colors skin, hair, and eyes, via the enzyme tyrosinase.
- Melanin plays multiple roles: skin color, UV protection, and regulation of temperature and immune response.
Melanin Production and Skin Protection
- Increased UV exposure triggers melanocytes to increase melanin production for UV radiation absorption and dissipation, thus mitigating skin damage.
- Disorders include Albinism (lack of melanin) and Vitiligo (melanocyte destruction, resulting in patchy skin loss).
- Related concepts include sun damage, browtosis, elastosis, and nasolabials.
- Proper sun protection and avoiding excessive UV exposure help maintain even pigmentation and prevent melanocyte damage.
Treatment Steps/Benefits
- Cleansing, exfoliation, serum application (anti-aging serums), massage, mask, final moisturizer.
- Skincare benefits include wrinkle/fine line reduction, restoration of skin firmness/elasticity, increased hydration, and improved skin tone.
Selling Techniques/Client Objections
- Techniques include understanding client needs, using product knowledge, active listening, providing clear responses, and closing the sale confidently.
- Objections include those regarding cost, sensory experience, uncertainty, comparison to previous products, and other concerns, which require effective responses.
