The quantity of lye necessary in blend is only 1/4 of the quantity necessary in the galvanic modality. HF
current allows you to use galvanic current two or three times stronger without any increase of pain. HF
heats the Lye as hot lye is much more effective in destroying the tissue. Tissue coagulated by HF
becomes porosity, so lye can easily and rapidly spread through the tissue - -answer-In the blend
modality how does HF affect the galvanic performance

Resting stage - -answer-Telogen stage of hair growth is also known as
, Hepatitis B (HBV) - -answer-Which of the following pathogenic microorganisms represent the greater
risk for electrologists
Step down the voltage of alternating current therefore the flow of the current increases - -answer-What
does step down transformer do
An oscillator - -answer-High frequency is produced by
Critical items, semi critical items and non-critical items - -answer-According to the potential degree of
contaminated, each object or equipment can be classified as
Hair - -answer-Trichology is the study of
Disinfectant - -answer-What is not an approved method of sterilization
The American electrology association (AEA) - -answer-What institution established "infection control
standards for practice of electrology"
Horny zone and germinal zone - -answer-The main zones of the epidermis are
Not to treat the client until you investigate - -answer-If a client presents with a diagnosis that is not
familiar for you what is the best decision that you would make
The treatment will be less comfortable for the client, there will be bigger risk of over treatment and both
electrologist and client will be at a disadvantage - -answer-If an electrologist use only size 2 needles,
what may happen
Broken skin - -answer-Bacteria and other micro organism can enter the body through
Protect the client from potential exposure to the microbial of the electrologists - -answer-Wearing
gloves
