Which of the following is not a modality? Microcurrent, Tesla high frequency, and galvanic are all modalities
DC is not.
What uses electromagnetic radiation for hair removal and skin treatments?
Abbreviated K
1,000 watts. Acronym for light amplification stimulation emission of radiation
a medical device that uses electromagnetic radiation for hair removal and skin treatments. Abbreviated LED
a medical device used to reduce acne, increase skin circulation, and improve the collagen content in the skin.
Which of the following is not a good conductor of electricity Milady?
Detailed Solution. The Correct Answer is Bromine. Bromine is a very poor conductor of electricity. Bromine was discovered in 1826 by the French chemist Antoine-Jérôme Balard.
Does Microcurrent travel throughout the entire body?
False: Microcurrent does not travel throughout the entire body
it serves only the specific area being treated.
What is not an insulator?
The correct answer is Mercury. Mercury is NOT an insulator. Insulators are material that does not conduct electricity. Examples – paper, plastic, rubber, glass, Ebonite, air, Styrofoam, etc.
What is Desincrustation used for?
Desincrustation is a treatment for those with oily skin (seborrhea) or skin prone to blackheads. The treatment combines the beneficial effects of current and ultrasonic waves. It has two phases: the first is a deep cleansing treatment of the skin, which uses ultrasonic waves, current, and active substances.
What does Anaphoresis do to the skin?
It has many uses in medicinal applications such as skin treatments. Estheticians use anaphoresis to facilitate deep pore cleansing. In this method, they use a galvanic current to create chemical reactions that can emulsify or liquefy sebum and debris of skin.
How does the electromagnetic spectrum of light affect the skin?
The visible light radiation can exert various biologic effects such as erythema, pigmentation, thermal damage and free radical production. Addtionally, visible light exposure can cause or exacerbate photodermatoses such as solar urticaria, chronic actinic dermatosis (CAD) and cutaneous porphyrias.

Which is not good conductor?
Materials like glass and plastic are poor electrical conductors, and are called insulators. They are used to stop electricity from flowing where it is not needed or where it can be dangerous, such as through our bodies.
Which of the following is not a source of electricity?
Answer: Battery is not a source of electricity.
Which of the following is not a conductor of electricity?
The correct answer is Distilled water. Distilled water is a pure form of water that does not contain ions. Therefore, it does not conduct electricity.
What is body microcurrent modality?
A Microcurrent Body Lift is a simple and effective 60-90 minute treatment. Mimics your body’s own electrical currents. Delivers a very low-voltage of precise electrical current to deep levels of the fat, skin and muscle. Described as a tingling, pulsing sensation like a ”workout”.
Is galvanic current the same as Microcurrent?
Unlike Galvanic, both probes in True Microcurrent are on the face simultaneously and each probe provides both the negative and positive charge. Microcurrent is different from Galvanic because Galvanic works with the chemical reaction of the solution and the current.
Is a wall plate known as a facial stimulator?
UV prompts the skin to produce vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin that promotes mineralization of bones. A wall plate is also known as facial stimulator.
Which of the following is not an example of an insulator?
Pots and pans are not examples of insulators, they are conductors of heat, if it was not so, they could not be used for cooking food. And they are used for cooking, so they are conductors.
What are insulators with examples?
(b) Insulators : Insulators are the materials or substances which resist or don’t allow the current to flow through them. In general, they are solid in nature. Wood, cloth, glass, mica, and quartz are some good examples of insulators.
What are three examples of insulators?
Examples of insulators include plastics, Styrofoam, paper, rubber, glass and dry air.
What is Desincrustation used for Milady?
Desincrustation causes an alkaline reaction to soften the follicles for deep cleansing.
What is iontophoresis and Desincrustation?
Iontophoresis is used to introduce products / serums into the deeper layers of the skin. Desincrustation is ideal for oily and breakout-prone skin. It helps soften the follicles (pores), as well as sebum and keratin within the skin, allowing for easier extractions.
What are the contraindications for using a galvanic machine?
What are contraindication for using a galvanic machine? Pregnant, pacemakers, heart problems, high blood pressure, braces or epilepsy. What are the effects on the skin from anaphoresis? Causes an acidic reaction, tightens skin, calms or soothes nerve endings, decreases blood circulation.
What is Anaphoresis Milady?
anaphoresis. process of infusing an alkaline (negative) product into the tissues from the negative pole toward the positive pole. anode.
What is a treatment goal for mature skin?
What is a treatment goal for mature skin? To hydrate and revitalize the skin.
What is not a function of potassium?
What is not a function of potassium? Eating stomach, nerve and muscle function. What mineral is important for protein synthesis and collagen formation and promotes wound healing and helps the immune system? Zinc.
Does visible light damage skin?
While visible light is far less damaging than other solar radiation, the effect is increased when damage from UVA opens up skin cells to further damage from other radiation. Visible light accounts for 45 per cent of solar radiation hitting our skin, while UV accounts for just five per cent.
What type of light is used to treat skin?
Phototherapy is a type of light therapy that mimics the effects of sunlight exposure. We use ultraviolet (UV) light from artificial sources to trigger biologic processes that reduce inflammation and prevent skin cells from growing too quickly.
What are the main risks of infrared radiation?
Medical studies indicate that prolonged IR exposure can lead to lens, cornea and retina damage, including cataracts, corneal ulcers and retinal burns, respectively. To help protect against long-term IR exposure, workers can wear products with IR filters or reflective coatings.
What rays cause damage to collagen and fibrils?
What can UVA rays do? Penetrate the dermis and damage collagen and fibrils.
What color has the shortest wavelength?
Blue or violet light has the shortest wavelength. White light is a combination of all colors in the color spectrum. It has all the colors of the rainbow. Combining primary colors of light like red, blue, and green creates secondary colors: yellow, cyan, and magenta.
What is another name for electromagnetic radiation?
In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EMR) consists of waves of the electromagnetic (EM) field, propagating through space, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy. It includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, (visible) light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.
