Electricity Flashcards
Electrodessication
Creates heat that evaporated cellular fluid/ causes either blanching or target, vasospasm, or results in a dark coagulated vessel
Microcurrent- Facial Toning
treatment of loss of muscle tone in the face
Light-Emittinh Diodes (LED)
Non-thermal, non-ablative of light delivered through tiny light-emitting diodes
Activates skin cells to increase collagen production
Electromagnetic Radiation
Radiant energy or light rays/Carries energy through space on waves/Light particles trough
Photodynamic therapy
photosenthisizing drug enhancer where the product is applied and light is added to amplify treatment
blue light
light-emitting diode for use ok clients with acne
wavelength
distance between two successive peaks of electromagnetic waves
polarity
negative or positive pole of an electric current
chromosphere
color component with the skin such as blood and melanin
electrode
probe or applicator for directing the decide to the client’s skin
electromagnetic spectrum
a form of energy that travels through space in waves and gas both electric and magnetic properties
visible light
electromagnetic radiation that we can see
UV radiation
has shorter wavelengths penetrate less and produces less heat than visible light diodes
laser
light amplification emission of radiation; medical device that uses electromagnetic radiation for hair removal and skin treatments
light therapy
also known as phototherapy; application of light rays to the skin for the treatment of acne
