(C)
THE ACUTE ASSESSMENT OF THE SKIN IS IMPERATIVE IN THE
PRACTICE OF CORRECTIVE SKIN CARE WHETHER IN THE SPA OR
CLINICAL SETTING. THE OBSERVATIONS MADE BY AESTHETICIANS
ARE OF VITAL IMPORTANCE ASSISTING PHYSICIANS IN THE
MANAGEMENT OF SKIN DISORDERS - THROUGH AESTHETIC
TREATMENT, PRODUCT SELECTION & HOME CARE PROTOCOLS.
THIS CD PRESENTATION OFFERS A COMPREHENSIVE VIEW OF
MANY OF THE MOST COMMON SKIN DISORDERS THAT THE
AESTHETICIAN MAY ENCOUNTER WHILE PERFORMING SKIN CARE
SERVICES AT THE SPA OR MEDICAL FACILITY. THE IMAGES ARE
ACCOMPANIED BY PATHOPHYSIOLOGY ASSESSMENT, ETIOLOGY,
STANDARD MEDICAL PROTOCOL PRESCRIBED BY PHYSICIANS,
COMPATABLE AESTHETIC TREATMENT & ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
VIEWS WITH OVER 200 POWER POINT TILES WITH IMAGES & TEXT.

SKIN CARE & PRESCRIPTION DRUGS
•
ESTIMATED THAT 50% OF PEOPLE IN THE U.S. USE
PRESCRIPTION AND OTC DRUGS
•
THIS COULD POSSIBLY EQUATE TO ABOUT 1/2 YOUR CLIENTS
•
MODERN SKIN CARE PRODUCTS HAVE ENHANCED
INGREDIENT ACTIVITY POTENTIAL - POSSIBLE VOLITALE
INTERACTIONS WITH RX’S
•
RE-ASSESSMENT OF YOUR CLIENT’S MEDICATIONS AND
HEALTH STATUS SHOULD BE DONE AT EACH VISIT
SKIN CARE & PRESCRIPTION DRUGS
•
SYNERGISTIC REACTIONS - INCREASE IN POTENCY OF THE
DRUG
•
CANCELLATION REACTIONS - DRUGS OR INGREDIENTS MAY
CANCELL OUT THE ACTIVITY OF EACH OTHER
•
ANTAGONISTIC REACTIONS - EACH DRUG MAY DECREASE THE
INTENDED POTENCY
PATHOLOGY PRIMER
•
INFLAMMATION IS CONSIDERED A DISEASE PROCESS
•
INFLAMMATION IS A PROTECTIVE PROCESS RESPONDING TO
AN INJURY OR DESTRUCTION OF TISSUE WHEREBY THE
RESPONSE REPRESENTS AN ATTEMPT TO DESTROY BOTH THE
ANTAGONIST & INJURED TISSUE
•
INFLAMMATION AFFECTS THE EPIDERMIS, DERMIS &
SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE IN TANDEM
•
CHARACTERISTICS OF INFLAMMATION : REDNESS, SWELLING,
HEAT & PAIN
PATHOLOGY PRIMER
•
•
ACUTE: SUDDEN ONSET OF THE CONDITION / SUB ACUTE
CHRONIC : LASTS FOR MONTHS / SUBCHRONIC
STAGE ONE = VASCULAR EFFECT / VASODIALATION -ACCOUNTS
FOR THE REDNESS OF INJURED SKIN
STAGE TWO = LEUKOCYTIC INFFILTRATION - PASSAGE OF WHITE
BLOOD CELLS INTO INJURED TISSUE
STAGE THREE = PHAGOCYTOSIS - WHITE BLOOD CELLS DESTROY

ROSACEA
PATHOLOGY & ETIOLOGY
• PROGRESSIVE VASCULAR DISORDER EXHIBITING WEAKNESS
AND FRAGILITY OF BLOOD VESSELS OF THE FACE
• CHRONIC HISTORY OF EPISODIC REDDENING
• HYPERMIA (EXCESSIVE BLOOD FLOW)
• ERYTHEMA (CONGESTED CAPILLARIES)
• PERSISITANT ERYHTEMA & SYMETRICAL PATTERN
•
REACTIVITY OF THE CAPILLARIES TO HEAT & STIMULI
ROSACEA
PATHOLOGY & ETIOLOGY
• 2-3 MM PAPULES, SCATTERED LESIONS, TELANGECTASIA, NO
COMEDONES
• MAY EFFECT THE OCCULAR REGION
• MAY CO-EXHIST WITH ACNE - BUT UNREALATED TO ACNE
ITSELF
• ACNE MAY PRECEED THE ONSET OF ROSACEA, BUT
NOT AN INDICATOR
• AGE OF ONSET 30-50
ROSACEA
PATHOLOGY & ETIOLOGY
• DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS - ACNE, PERI ORAL DERMATITIS,
SEBORRHEIC DERMATITIS, PROLONGED USE OF
GLUCOCORTICOIDS
• 1 IN 20 PEOPLE ON THE U.S. HAVE ROSACEA - EFFECTS
WOMEN 3X’S MORE
• EARLY INTERVENTION AT ONSET IMPORTANT TO
DISCOURAGE PROGRESSION
ROSACEA
PATHOLOGY & ETIOLOGY
• PREVELANT CELTIC, NORDIC DECENT - 8-10 MILLION IN THE
BRITISH ISLES ARE EFFECTED
• HISTORY OF THE DISORDER DATES BACK TO MID 1300’S
• DEMODEX FOLLICULORUM MITE POSTULATED
• CHRONIC INFLAMMATION & DELAYED FOOD ALLERGIES
• MINERAL DEFICIENCIES - HYPERACIDITY
FLUSHING MECHANISM & NITRIC OXIDE
• PRE ROSACEA FLUSHING IS AN EARLY SIGN OF THE
DISORDER
• EARLIEST DETECTION IN CHILDHOOD - THE “HEALTY GLOW”
MAY ACTUALLY BE A SIGNAL OF DEVELOPMENT
• ROSEACA BLOOD VESSELS HAVE GENETIC BASED
STRUCTURE ABNORMALITY IN THE INNER LINING AND WALLS
OF THE BLOOD VESSELS - OFFERING LESS PROTECTION AND
REPAIR MECHANISMS
• REPEATED FLUSHING CAUSES VASCUALR HYPERRESPONSIVENESS & ENHANCES DIALATION & STRUCTURAL
CHANGES TO BLOOD VESSELS
FLUSHING MECHANISM & NITRIC OXIDE
•
FLUSHING IS LOCALIZED TO THE FACE BECAUSE:
1. GREATER BLOOD FLOW TO THE FACE
2, FLOW IS 20-30 TIMES GREATER THAN REQUIRED
3. GREATER WIDTH OF VESSELS & SUPERFICIAL VESSELS
4. RESPONDS TO MORE STIMULI - THINNER SKIN
5. THERMOREGULATORY BLOOD VESSELS AID IN
REDUCING HEAT FROM FLUSHING
•
•
AS ROSACEA PROGRESSES - SENSITIVITY INCREASES
NERVOUSNESS, ANXIETY, ANGER CONTRIBUTE TO
EPISODIC FLUSHING
FLUSHING MECHANISM & NITRIC OXIDE
• NITRIC OXIDE IS PRODUCED AND RELEASED AT EACH
INCIDENCE OF INCREASED BLOOD FLOW OR FLUSHING
• NITRIC OXIDE IS PRODUCED BY ENZYMES LOCATED IN AND
AROUND THE BLOOD VESSELS & SKIN (NITRIC OXIDE
SYNTHASE ENZYMES)
• NITRIC ACID IS FORMED ON THE INNER WALL OF BLOOD
VESSELS, EPIDERMAL & DERMAL CELLS & DIALATOR
NERVES AROUND BLOOD VESSELS
• IT EFFECTS NEARBY BLOOD VESSELS AND BINDS TO
RECEPTOR CELLS ON VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS

PROCEDURES
CRYOTHERAPY
• SKIN LESIONS ARE FROZEN FOR REMOVAL WARTS, MOLES, SKIN TAGS, SOLAR KERATOSES, SEBORRHEIC
KERATOSES, SUPERFICIAL BASAL CELLS
• LIQUID NITROGEN SPRAY OR LIQUID CARBON DIOXIDE SNOW
• APPLIED TO THE SKIN FOR A FEW SECONDS TO FREEZE THE
LESION
• CARBON DIOXIDE SNOW IS SOMETIMES MIXED WITH ACETONE
TO FORM A SLUSH MIXTURE
CRYOTHERAPY
• STINGS AND MAY BE PAINFUL
• IMMEDIATE REDNESS, INFLAMMATION AND SWELLING
• TREATMENT AREA WILL BLISTER WITHIN A FEW HOURS
• WITHIN A FEW DAYS A SCAB WILL FORM AND EVENTUALLY
FALL OFF
• TREATMENT MAY RESULT IN SECONDARY
HYPOPIGMENTATION
CURETTAGE & DIATHERMY
• SURGICAL SCRAPING OF A LESION FOR REMOVAL & BIOPSY
• “CURETTE” SPOON SHAPED INSTRUMENT WITH SHARP EDGES
IS USED FOR THE SCRAPING
• THE WOUND SITE IS THEN CAUTERISED WITH A HOT WIRE
BEADED TIP / ELECTROSURGICAL UNIT ( DIATHERMY)
• THE PROCEDURE HELPS TO STOP ANY BLEEDING & AIDS IN
THE DESTRUCTION OF ANY REMAINING TUMOR CELLS
• THIS PROCEDURE WILL ALWAYS LEAVE SOME DEGREE OF
SCARRING, WHICH IS USUALLY FLAT AND ROUND
