Chapter 23 Facials Skin Analysis & Consultation • Skin Analysis is one of the most important parts of the facial service because it determines what type of skin the client has, the condition of the skin and what type of treatment the client’s skin requires • Consultation allows you the opportunity to ask the client questions about their health and skin as well as advise them about the appropriate products and treatments 2 Intake Form During the consultation a client will fill out an intake form that will ask many health questions that will allow you to identify any contradictions • Contradiction is a condition the client has, or a treatment the client is undergoing, that might cause a negative side effect during the facial treatment. Example: a client using Retin-A should not receive any waxing or exfoliation procedures 3 Main Contradictions • Use of Accutane, Retin-A, Renova, Tazorac, or Differin – NO Waxing, Exfoliating, Peeling or Stimulating treatments • Pregnancy – No electrical treatments • Metal pins or plates – No electrical treatments • Pacemakers / Heart Irregularities – No electrical treatments • Allergies – always use non-fragranced products for sensitive skin • Seizures or Epilepsy – No electrical or light treatments • Oral Steroids (Prednisone) – No stimulating or exfoliating treatments, No waxing • Autoimmune disease (lupus) – No stimulating treatments • Diabetes – No services without physicians approval. Diabetics heal very slowly • Blood Thinners – No waxing or extractions 4 When in doubt – DON’T A cosmetologist DOES NOT treat skin diseases. However, as a professional, you must be able to recognize the presence of various skin aliments in order to suggest that the client seek medical advice from a physician After a skin analysis and consultation if you have any doubts DO NOT provide the service & refer the client to a physician 5 Skin Type Is determined by how oily or dry the skin is Skin type is hereditary Skin type can not be permanently changed with treatments, although the skin may look considerable better after treatment 6 Skin Types Oily Dry Normal Combination Dry Combination Oily Acne 7 Skin Condition Are characteristics of the skin associated with a particular skin type 8 Skin Conditions • Oily – open & closed comedones, clogged pores, shiny, thick appearance • Dry – aka “alipidic” tight, poreless looking, dehydrated with fine lines and wrinkles, dry and rough to the touch • Normal – very unusual (most common is combination skin) • Combination Dry – may have clogged pores in the nose, chin and center of forehead. Dry , poreless towards the outside edges of the face • Combination Oily – comedones, clogged pores or obvious pores in the center of the face (T-zone) • Acne – presence of numerous open and closed comedones, clogged pores, and red papules and pustules 9 Skin Conditions Cont’d Hyperpigmentation – dark blotches of color, caused by sun exposure or hormone imbalances Treated with mild exfoliation and home care products that discourage pigmentation Daily use of sunscreen and avoidance of sun exposure are very important for this skin type 10 Skin Conditions Cont’d Sensitive skin has a tin, red-pink look and is easily inflamed by some skin care products Avoid strong products, fragranced products or strong exfoliates Rosacea is chronic hereditary disorder that can be indicated by constant or frequent facial blushing. It is considered a medical disorder and should be diagnosed by a dermatologist. Client should be treated with products specially formulated for rosacea 11 Dry Skin Otherwise known as Alipidic – “lack of lipids” / Asteatosis – arrested action of the sebaceous glands Dehydrated skin can be flaky with small fine lines and wrinkles Dehydration can be caused from lack of care, over-drying skin care products, sun exposure, lack of water intake Dehydrated skin is treated by using hydrators that help to bind water to the skin surface Proper hydration will result in smoother-looking and softer skin 12 Oily Skin Produces too much sebum Will have large pores Skin may appear shiny or greasy Pores may be clogged from dead cells building up in the hair follicles There may be open comedones or closed comedones 13 Open vs. Closed Comedones Open comedones are blackheads, they are a mixture of solidified sebum and dead cell buildup stuck in the follicles Closed comedones are small bumps just underneath the skin surface 14 Acne The presence of pimples in oily areas indicates acne Acne is a disorder in which the follicles become clogged, resulting in infection of the follicle with redness and inflammation Acne bacteria are anaerobic, which means that they cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. Follicles are blocked with solidified sebum and dead-cell buildup, oxygen cannot readily get to the bottom of the follicle where acne bacteria live. • Acne papules are red pimples that do not have a pus head Pimples with a pus head are called pustules Pus is a fluid inside a pustule, largely made up of dead white blood cells that tried to fight the infection CAUTION – always wear gloves when performing extractions because acne skin contains infectious matter 15 Skin Care Products Skin care products are classified into 6 main categories: • *Cleansers • *Toners • *Exfoliants • *Treatments (serums) • *Masks • *Moisturizers 16 Cleansers Are designed to clean the surface of the skin and to remove make-up Cleansing Milks – are non-foaming lotions.
