Introduction • The skin is the largest organ of the body! • It is a direct reflection of the nutrients you eat and the healthy habits you keep. • Cosmetologists are not allowed to diagnose, prescribe, or provide any type of treatment for abnormal conditions, illnesses, or diseases. • Refer clients with medical issues to dermatologists more than to any other type of physician.

Largest organ of the body Covers two square yards Weighs six to nine pounds Protects muscles, bones, nerves Natural barrier between our bodies and the environment Healthy skin should be free of any visible signs of disease, infection, or injury Skin Specifics
Slide 8-

Healthy skin: slightly moist soft and flexible smooth and fine-grained surface that is slightly acidic immune responses that react quickly to organisms that touch or try to enter it Skin Specifics (continued) (continues)
Slide 9-

Continued pressure causes calluses Appendages of the skin include hair, nails, and sudoriferous (sweat) and sebaceous (oil) glands. The skin of the scalp has larger and deeper hair follicles to accommodate the longer hair of the head. Skin Specifics (continued) (continues)
Slide 10-

The skin is composed of two main divisions: the epidermis and the dermis Skin Specifics (continued)
Slide 11-

The Epidermis Stratum corneum Stratum lucidum (continues) Stratum granulosum Stratum spinosum Stratum germinativum Melanocytes
Slide 12-

The Dermis Dermis is the underlying, inner layer of the skin. Papillary layer: outer layer beneath epidermis (continues)
Slide 13-

The Dermis (continued) Reticular layer: deeper layer of dermis Subcutaneous tissue: fatty layer below dermis
Slide 14-

Fluids of the Skin The blood supplies nutrients, molecules from food such as protein, carbohydrates, and fats, to the skin. Lymph bathes skin cells, removes toxins and cellular waste, and has immune functions that help protect the skin and body against disease.
Slide 15-

Nerves of the Skin Motor nerve fibers: cause goose flesh Sensory nerve fibers: send messages to brain Secretory nerve fibers: regulate perspiration
Slide 16-

Sense of Touch Nerve endings are found in the papillary layer. They register sensations: Touch Pain Heat Cold Pressure

Skin Color Depends primarily on melanin (continues)
Slide 19-

Skin Color (continued) The color of the skin is a hereditary trait and varies among races and nationalities. Genes determine the amount and type of pigment produced in an individual. Melanin: tiny grains of pigment in stratum germinativum Pheomelanin: red to yellow in color Eumelanin: dark brown to black in color
Slide 20-

Strength and Flexibility of Skin Two structures, collagen and elastin, make up 70 percent of the dermis and give strength, form, and flexibility to skin. Collagen: a fibrous protein allowing skin to stretch and contract Elastin: a protein base that forms elastic tissue; gives skin elasticity
Slide 21-

Glands of the Skin Sudoriferous (sweat) glands (continues) Sebaceous (oil) glands
Slide 22-

Sebaceous Glands Open Comedo: blackhead Closed Comedo: whitehead Acne: chronic inflammation of sebaceous glands Papule: small, round elevation on skin Pustule: inflamed pimple containing pus Glands of the Skin (continued)

Vitamins and Dietary Supplements Vitamin A: improves elasticity and thickness Vitamin C: accelerates healing process Vitamin D: enables absorption of calcium Vitamin E: protects against sun’s rays

Water and the Skin Comprises 50 to 70 percent of body’s weight Sustains the health of cells Aids in elimination of toxins and waste Helps regulate body temperature Aids in proper digestion
