A)
which of the following is NOT a property of laser light? - ANSWER-It's not always
visible, they are also monochromatic, collimated and coherent
true or false: priorto treatment, hair should neither be shaved or waxed. - ANSWER-true
joules per area equals: - ANSWER-fluence
In the field of aesthetics, there are several types of lasers that produce energy within
specified durations and characteristics. which one of the following is most appropriate
for laser hair removal? - ANSWER-long pulsed lasers
the outermost layer of the skin is called the: - ANSWER-epidermis
on the fitzpatrick scale of skin prototypes, caucasian skin that burns mildly but will tan is
best described as skin type : - ANSWER-III. I never tans, II burns, tans but doesn't last
long, IV is olive complexion, V light dark skin always tans, VI very dark
the primary targeted chromophore when performing hair removal is: - ANSWER-
melanin within the hair follicle
IPL machines produce: - ANSWER-broadband light
true or false: It is safe to assume that protective eyewear found within a laser clinic will
protect you from all the lasers maintained within that clinic. - ANSWER-false
, terminal hair is: - ANSWER-coarse, pigmented hair
the consulting physician shall have a primary practice location within how many miles of
the LHR facility the physician is contracted with? - ANSWER-75 miles

chromophores
finding the optimal treatment settings is a balance of: - ANSWER-efficiency and safety
Increasing spot size keeps scattered photons in the: - ANSWER-beam path
minimize direct reflection by keeping incident path ______ to skin surface. - ANSWER-
perpendicular
which of the following contributes the least to the efficacy of the treatment? - ANSWER-
