of cells that contain Eleidin.
What two layers make up the Germinal Zone? (also known as the the living or basal
zone). - ANSWER-Stratum Spinosum
-Stratum Germinativum
What is the Malpighian layer? - ANSWERThe Stratum Mucosum and Stratum
Germinativum.
What is the Reticular Layer composed of? - ANSWERDense bundles of collagen fibers.
What appendages are found in the Reticular Layer? - ANSWER-Arrector Pili Muscles
-Blood Vessels
-Fat Cells
-Hair Follicles
-Lymph Vessels (lymph fluid)
-Nerve Endings
-Sebaceous Glands
-Sudoriferous Glands
Blood and Lymph Supply: What happens when they circulate their way into the Dermis?
- ANSWERVia tiny capillaries, it transports the oxygen-rich blood and nutrients essential
for growth; reproduction; and tissue repair of the skin, hair, and nails.
What do Lymph glands produce? - ANSWERThey produce Lymph which is made of
white blood corpuscles and plasma.
What are Apocrine Glands? - ANSWERFound in the genital ares and in the axillae
(underarms). During perspiration, water, salts, cellular waste, and fatty substances emit
from these glands and combine with bacteria to create body odor.
What are Eccrine Glands? - ANSWERFound all over the body. Increased numbers on
the forehead and the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. They excrete mainly
water with little salt, urea, other water-soluble substances.
, How does dermabrasion affect electrolysis? - ANSWERIt is recommended that a period
of three months elapse before electrolysis is performed on previously derabraded skin.
How does dermabrasion affect electrolysis? - ANSWERHypo or hyperpigmentation is
common after dermabrasion.
Tetracycline Antibiotics - ANSWERThe Tetracyclines are considered bacteriostatic
which means they do not kill bacteria, but rather keep them from multiplying.
Diseases frequently treated by Tetracycline - ANSWER1. Acne
2. Lyme Disease
3. Rosacea (acne rosacea)
The Growth Cycle: Anagen Phase - ANSWERThe duration of this phase differs
according to location on the body. It ranges from a few weeks in the fingers, four to six
months in the thigh, to three to eight years in the scalp.
Vellus hair turning terminal - ANSWEROnce vellus hair has been transformed into
terminal hair, it cannot change back even if androgen's disappear.
Capacitive return - ANSWERThe current will return to the machine by means of
radiation through air (why the client doesn't have to hold an anode).
Idopathic Hirsutism - ANSWERSexual hair (facial, ear, chest, abdominal, pubic, and
axillary, is hormone dependent. This hormone is primarily testosterone; which is
converted to dihydritestosterone before it becomes effective.
Unit of Lye Question (Time X Intensity) - ANSWER24
Dilantin - ANSWERDrug used to treat epilepsy.
Lutenizing Hormone (LH) - ANSWERGonadotropic hormone released by the anterior
pituitary gland.
Adrenal Cortex (Glucocorticoids) aka MC - ANSWERCoritsol
Adrenal Cortex (Mineralocorticoids) aka MC - ANSWERAldosterone
Symptoms of PCOS - ANSWER-Weight gain or obesity, usually with extra weight
around the waist.
-Patches of skin on the neck, arms breasts, or thighs that are thick and dark brown or
black. (Ancanthosis Nigricians)
Diabetes Medication (Metformin) - ANSWER-Used to treat type 2 diabetes
