Study Notes

Epithelial Tissue

  • Melanocytes, Merkel cells, and Langerhans cells are key components found in epithelial tissue.

Sebaceous Gland

  • Sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles, providing lubrication to hair and skin.

Anagen Phase

  • The anagen phase represents the actively growing stage of hair, crucial for hair development.

Carrier for Essential Oils

  • A carrier product is used to dilute essential oils, ensuring safe application on the skin.

Antiviral Treatment

  • Clients predisposed to herpes simplex should begin antiviral treatment before receiving a chemical peel.

Dermis Function

  • Systemic hyaluronic acid effectively binds water, helping to retain fluid within the dermis.

Melanocyte Activity

  • More active melanocytes produce darker skin tones, as they generate more melanin.

Skin Tags

  • Acrochordons are commonly referred to as skin tags, benign growths on the skin.

Sanitation Standards

  • Products containing antiseptics achieve sanitation, indicating a mid-level of decontamination.

Rhytidectomy

  • A rhytidectomy, commonly known as a facelift, is a surgical procedure to reduce aging signs.

Hand Sanitization

  • Sanitizing hands is the initial step in any body treatment protocol, emphasizing hygiene.

Stratum Germinativum

  • The stratum germinativum is also known as the basal layer, crucial for skin regeneration.

Facial Steamer Functionality

  • A facial steamer not only softens sebum but also serves to oxygenate the skin.

Study of Skin

  • Dermatology is the scientific study that focuses on the skin, its functions, and conditions.

Client Treatment Review

  • Consultation forms for new clients receiving chemical exfoliation should be reviewed and signed at each treatment.

Telangiectasia
