week 7 Flashcards
hypodermic feature building equipment and materials
- feature builder (regular and firming)
- Feature builder solvent
- syringes
- various size needles
used post embalming in areas of poor chemical distribution. tissues builder can assist in preservation and disinfection of tissue. Has formaldehyde in it
tissue builder (firming)
a liquid that when mixed with water creates a gelatinous solid
tissue builder
also used in post embalming
tissue builder (regular)
need to be cleaned with tissue builder solvent.
- cleaning with water will only turn excess tissue builder into a solid. Solids don’t pass through syringes
- even by airing out w/o solvent the humidity in the air will solidify the tissue builder
tissue builder syringes
- needles cause holes and holes should be kept to a minimum when viewing the body
- holes should be self sealing
- keep hidden as much as possible
hidden points of entry for tissue building
injecting between the lids at the inner cantos or medial corner.
-injecting very slowly as the feature builder will swell the orbit instead of bringing the eye up.
eye tissue building
inject the outer edge of eyeballs, hairline above temple, behind top of ear or into sideburn if present
temple tissue building
inject behind wing of nose, corners of mouth, behind earlobe, inside ears behind trigs, or at the angle of the jaw
cheek tissue building
inject the lateral corners at the end of the line of closure or behind the medial lobe
lip tissue building
inject fingers, between fingers, and the back of the hand
hands tissue building
- cleanse, remove debris, shampoo, comb, brush, dry, style, adjust
preparation of hair restoration
brown to black-brown pigment
melanin
the absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes
albinism
the pigment that reveal the color of the blood oxygenated blood appears pinkish non-oxygenated blood appears bluish
hemoglobin
yellow pigment of the skin
carotene
uneven concentrations of melanin appearing as a dark spot
freckles
skin becomes duller/grayer, less smooth and more coarse
age
melanin concentrations change due to the sun
climate (weather)
degree of redness in the skin due to blood in the capillaries
health
determined by our genes we are born with
genetics
variable pigments of the skin due to ABNORMAL conditions (9)
- jaundice (yellow/green)
- Addisons disease (bronze)
- heart failure/trauma (blue/purple)
- formaldehyde (graying from arterial injection)
- dehydration (yellow/gray)
- decomposition (green/black)
- tanning (unnatural skin tones)
- co poisioning (cherry red cyanosis)
- exsanguination (white; total loss of blood)
cosmetology goals (6)
- replacing color lost through embalming
- counteracting color changes in the skin
- covering discolorations in the skin
- accenting positive facial features
- de-emphasizing negatively appearing features
- compensating for artificial lighting
