REMOVING EXCESS ACCUMALATIONS OF DEAD CELLS FROM THE CORNEUM LAYERS OF THE EPIDERMIS AS SUPERFICIAL PEELINH, EXFOLIATION, KERATOLYSIS, AND DESQUAMATION
CHEMICAL EXFOLIATION
Crf, rate of cell mitosis and migration from the dermis to the top of the epidermis, process slows down with age
Cell renewal factor, or cell turnover,
Genetics. Natural environment, medical history, lifestyle personal care, and exfoliation methods
Factors influencing CRF
Keratinized corneum layer is compromised of how many layers
15 to 20 layers
Lactic acid, salicylic acid, and resorcinol in an ethanol solvent, 4 to 10 coats
Jessners peel
Resorcinol, phenol, (carbolic acid) and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) glycolic acid at 50% or more
Deep peels administered by physicians
Light peels (chemical exfoliators)
Administered by estheticians
Strongest AHA and is derived from sugar cane
Glycolic acid
Used in different percentages and pH factors to dissolve the desomones between cells to keep skin cells exfoliatwd
Acids
Between the skins cells Consists of ceramides, lipids, glycoprotiens, and active enzymes
Intercellular matrix between the skin cells
Assist in holding cells together
Desmosomes
Can penetrate into the dermis more effectively because it has the smallest molecular size of the AHAs
Glycolic acid
Acid derived from milk
Lactic acid
Derived from grapes
Tartaric acid
Derived from apples
Malic acid
Water-loving
AHAs
Oil-loving
BHAs
Derived from sweet birch, willow bark, and wintergreen- has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, has aspirin in it, good for ingrown hairs
Salicylic acid
Average pH of skin
4.5 to 5.5
Ingredients added to products to help make them less irritating, reduce strength
Buffering agents
Acidic is what type of skin
Oily
Alkaline is what type of skin
Dry
Form of mechanical machine exfoliation that originated in Europe, achieved by spraying high-grade microcrystals, composed of corundum powder or aluminum oxide
Microdermabrasion
Treatments that can remove blood vessels, disable hair follicles, and remove tattoos
Laser
