Facial TreatmentsPregunta 66 de 100
A client is scheduled for her first superficial AHA peel. Which combination of steps is most appropriate?
a.Skip the patch test and begin at the highest available strength for faster results
b.Advise the client to tan beforehand so the skin is conditioned
c.Perform a patch test, start at a low strength and short contact time, watch the skin's response, and instruct the client on daily broad-spectrum sun protection afterward
d.Instruct the client to use a retinoid the night before to enhance penetration
Explicación
A first peel is patch tested and begun conservatively, with close observation during the service and strict sun protection afterward because freshly exfoliated skin is highly photosensitive. Starting at maximum strength invites burns and pigmentation. Tanning beforehand and layering a retinoid the night before both sensitize the skin and increase the risk of injury.
