About Cellulite

• Cellulite is a name given for collections of fat
  that push against the connective tissue beneath a
  person's skin. This causes the skin to lumps
  together.
• You can check to see if you have cellulite by
  pushing the skin together on your upper thigh,
  and if it is lumpy you probably have it. It is
  very common in women and some men.

3
Types of Cellulite

• Hard cellulite- the tissue is visible, it may be
  flabby but the tissue is not sensitive.
• Soft cellulite- This has a dimpling effect and is
  normally sensitive.

Why Do Your Fingers Wrinkle after a long bath?

• Your fingers wrinkle after a long bath because
  the keratin in your skin (epidermis, to be
  specific) absorbs water. As a result, there is
  too much stratum corneum, and it (your skin)
  wrinkles. It occurs specifically on your hands
  and feet because there is more skin there,
  leaving more keratin to absorb water.

What Are Wrinkles???

• Wrinkles form when the collagen and elastin are
  lost from the dermis.
• Wrinkles form because the fat in the subcutaneous
  starts to be lost from you dermis. The fat in the
  subcutaneous gives your skin the plump appearance

What is a freckle?

• A cluster of concentrated melanin
• Most visible on a fair complexion
• also called an "ephelis."
• The formation of freckles is triggered by
  exposure to sunlight
• Genetic

Anna McGehee 5th period

Continued

• The exposure to UV radiation activates
  melanocytes which causes freckles to become
  darker
• Ephelides freckle that is flat, light brown or
  red, and fades in the winter

What is a mole?

• Moles (nevi) are growths on the skin caused by
  cells called melanocytes that grow in a cluster
  with the tissue surrounding them
• Moles can be found anywhere on the body, in
  groups or alone. They are either pink, brown or
  black.

17
What is a mole?

• To make sure a mole is not cancerous, look for
  the ABCs of moles
• AsymmetryOne half of the mole does not match the
  other half.
• BorderThe border or edges of the mole are
  ragged, blurred, or irregular.
• ColorThe color of the mole is not the same
  throughout or has shades of tan, brown, black,
  blue, white, or red.
• DiameterThe diameter of a mole is larger than
  the eraser of a pencil.
• ElevationA mole appears elevated, or raised from
  the skin.
• Inherited or formed later

Seborrhea

• What is Seborrhea?
• Also know as Seborrheic Dermatitis
• Seborrhea means too much oil
• very common skin condition (Overactive sebaceous
  glands)
• causes an itchy, inflamed, red rash with white
  scales
• Usually on the scalp or face- folds of nose,
  behind the ears, forehead, eyebrows and eyelids

• What causes Seborrhea?
• Not fully understood
• Results from neither too little moisture nor too
  much oil
• Hormones, stress
• Yeast-like organism

By Sally Morris

Seborrhea

• Treatment
• For scalp- dandruff shampoo
• Moisturizing only makes it worse
• For face- wash every day with soap and water,
  rest and exercising outdoors (sunlight can stop
  the growth of the yeast organism)

• Who gets Seborrhea
• Common in infants (cradle cap)
• Adults and elderly people
• More common in men than women
• People with oily skin
• People with Parkinsons Disease or AIDS

• Is there hope with Seborrhea?
• If Seborrhea is a result of an underlying medical
  problem, then it should go away
• However, in most cases, seborrhea is a lifetime
  condition for which there is no cure, only
  treatment ?

Goose bumps

• By Connor Samples

22
What are goose bumps?

• These bumps appear at the base of the hairs on a
  persons skin when they experience cold or
  emotions such as fear or shock.

http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image2003-09-17_Goos
e_bumps.jpg
23
What causes goose bumps?

• They are created when the arrectores pilorum, the
  muscle at the base of the hair, contracts. This
  pulls this hair up and causes the bumps that look
  like those on a plucked goose.
• (piloerection)

What are carbuncles?

• Betsy Tapley
• 5th period

26
Carbuncles

• A carbuncle is a lump on the skin full of pus
  (white blood cells), dead skin, and fluid.
• Caused by a bacteria called staphylococcus
  aureus. (bacterial infection of hair follicles)
• It is made of groups of hair follicles and
  numerous boils.
• They range in size from a pea to a golf ball.
• A carbuncle is red and can hurt when touched
• The direct cause of a carbuncle can sometimes not
  be determined

27
Carbuncles

• They are contagious and can spread to other parts
  of the body but also to other people that come in
  contact to the infection.
• They are most commonly found on nape of neck and
  back, but they can form anywhere.
• Can be caused by poor hygiene and rubbing from
  clothing or shaving

• http//img87.imageshack.us/img87/1407/246810e3399w

• Overtime the carbuncle can drain itself, but if
  its too deep in the skin it will not be able to
  on its own

• Lee Mallette
• Fifth Period

32
Facts About Boils

• Boils are also referred to as skin abscesses
• They are actually localized infections deep in
  the skin, starting usually in an oil gland or
  hair follicle
• After a while, the center becomes soft and fills
  with pus, infection-fighting white blood cells
• There are many different types of boils

33
Types of Boils

• Furuncle or carbuncle is a type caused by
  staphylococcus aureus.
• Cystic acne is when oil ducts become clogged and
  infected.
• Hidradenitis suppurativa forms in the armpits and
  in the groin. This usually occurs when sweat
  glands are inflamed.
• Pilonidal cysts happen in the crease of the
  buttocks in hair follicles

• bp0.blogger.com/.../hLuMXD3v1Ls/s320/boil2.jpg

34
How to Prevent Boils

• Most boils can be treated at home using heat
• This increases circulation and helps the body
  fight the boil
• It can also be drained or lanced by a healthcare
  provider
• Antibiotics can also fight boils off

Gray Hair

• When you are born, your hair is originally white.
  The melanocytes in our hair follicles create
  pigments including melanin.
• The more melanin produced in our hair, the darker
  the hair is going to be and the less melanin
  there the lighter the hair color will be.
• When the melanocytes stop producing melanin, then
  the hairs become transparent. But against the
  dark hair, they appear gray.

37
Gray Hair

• Gray hair is not related to the age of the
  recipient, but aging does speed up the process of
  aging because the older we get, the less melanin
  our hair follicles produce. Gray hair spans
  between teens and men and women of the age of 50.
  
• Heredity plays a major role in when we will get
  gray hair. If one of your parents started to
  gray early, then you will probably gray early as
  well.

What Causes Hair to Fall Out?

• By Lindsey Waldheim

40
What causes hair to fall out?

• Hair loss is a normal routine in our everyday
  life. It is normal to lose between 100 to 125
  strands a day.
• Our hair follicles are produced in the dermis.
• There are three main reasons for hair loss
  hormonal, disease/Illness, and mechanical damage.
  

http//www.viewzone.com/hairloss1.jpg
41
Hair Loss

• Disease/Illness- hair follicles are sensitive,
  may have hair loss if imbalance. Have fever or
  flu, medications, surgery, cancer, and
  medication.
• Mechanical Damage-straightening, braiding,
  bleaching. The stress on hair follicles can
  strain it.
• Hormonal- androgen dihydrotestoterone is produced
  in both men and women. It is a hormone that can
  help create hair loss, through genetics. Other
  hormonal ways are childbirth and birth control.

What is a Blister?

• A blister is a protruding area of skin filled
  with liquid
• They are caused from high friction or rubbing on
  bare skin such as tight shoes, and using objects
  with bare hands
• Blisters usually form a lot quicker than calluses
• Usually heal on their own as long as no more
  irritation occurs

44
Blisters

• Fever blisters are the number one type of
  blisters occurring today
• Staying well hydrated prevents the chance of
  developing a blister
• The fluid found in blisters in commonly called
  serum (which is part blood)
• Blood blisters can sometime leave a scar as it
  damages the inner portions of the skin
• Skin lifts and fills with fluid below

Callous

• A callous is an especially
• toughened area of skin which
• has become relatively thick and
• hard as a response to repeated
• contact or pressure. (fibrous tissue forms)
• Since repeated contact is
• required, calluses are most often
• found on hands or feet. Calluses
• are generally not harmful, but may
• sometimes lead to other problems,
• such as infection.

47
How to treat a callous

• A common method, often done by a podiatrist is to
  shave the calluses down, and perhaps pad them.
• The most basic treatment is to put a
  friction-reducing insole or material into the
  shoe, or against the foot. In some cases, this
  will reduce the painfulness without actually
  making the callus go away.
• Salicylic acid can be used for two reasons, it
  decreases keratinocyte adhesion, and it increases
  water binding which leads to hydration of the
  keratin.
• Using a cutting instrument such as a knife to
  cut it away is dangerous because it can result in
  bleeding of the foot and infection.
• At other times, surgical correction of the
  pressure is needed.
• Types of Carp have been used in a northern
  Virginia spa to get rid of calluses.This practice
  has since been banned in some US states.

Why Do Paper Cuts Hurt So Much? By Arabella
Barlow

50

• Although paper cuts are small they sting more
  than any other cut, and do not stopwhy?
• Common Theories
• The microscopic structure of the paper
• The chemicals used in paper plants
• Bacteria living on our faxes
• Dermatologists know that these theories are
  wrong, but the reason for this pain still remains
  somewhat of a medical mystery.

51
No One Really Knows, but some educated
guesses The nerve fibers in our hands that send
touch and pain messages to our brain-nociceptors
are more numerous in our hands (pieces of paper
hit this and are left behind with bacteria) than
in the arms, legs, or stomach. Paper is part of
the problem paper is sharp and the combination
of papers qualities results in awful cuts. The
flexible dull edge of a piece of paper does not
go very deep into the skin, although this sounds
less painful, its actually more painful. This is
called microscopic damage, and the reason
microscopic damage hurts much worse is because it
hits the most sensitive nerves. Larger nerves
send a dull aching pain and are deeper under the
skin, and since the paper cut is shallow it
brings on a stinging sensation, not an aching
pain. Because the cuts are shallow, they are less
likely to bleed, clot, and seal up the wound with
a scab so the raw nerves are open to the air
which continues the sending of pain messages to
the brain.

What Causes Bedsores?

• Bedsores, also called Decubitus ulcers and
  pressure sores, are ulcers that arise on areas of
  the skin that are under extensive periods of
  pressure or force. Some of the most common causes
  of bedsores come from lying in bed, sitting in a
  wheelchair, and/or wearing a cast for a prolonged
  period of time. One usually feels bedsores in
  places such as the tail bone, elbows, ankles,
  heels, and sometimes deep enough as the muscle.
• A bed sore can develop if blood supply to the
  skin is cut off for more than two to three hours
  at a time. As the skin dies, the bed sore begins
  as a red, painful area, which eventually turns
  purple.
• Bedsores can be treated, but you must find a
  doctor as soon as possible. If left unattended,
  the sore can break open, resulting in an
  infection.
• Common procedures on treating Bedsores include
  removing pressure, cleaning out the sore,
  antibiotic ointments, and as a last resort,
  surgical removal.

What causes Bedsores?

• Bedsores can be prevented with good nutrition,
  keeping clean and dry linens, turning those
  mobile in bed frequently, soft padding in
  stabilized areas such as a wheelchair, and
  keeping the skin dry and clean.

What causes bruising?

• Usually bruising happens when you bump into
  something.
• When you hit and object it causes the capillaries
  to burst, leave blood below the skin.
• Another reason for bruising is lack of vitamin K,
  E, and C.

Jessica Bruno, 5th period
57
What causes Bruising?

• Sometimes certain medicines or medical problems
  leave bruises behind.
• Bruises can be anywhere including inside your
  body.
• Some people bruise easier than others. People
  with O type blood tend to bruise easily because
  of the chemical composition of O blood cells.

CYANOSIS
Cyanosis is a physical condition in which the
skin turns a bluish color. The bluish color
results from skin and mucus membranes being
discolored. It is caused by a lack of Oxygen in
the blood. Cyanosis is associated with cold
temperatures, heart failure, lung disease and
smothering. It is common among infants. The
blue color is shown mostly in the beds of finger
nails, on the lips, and on the tongue.
Caroline Lassiter 5th
60
CYANOSIS

• There is hemoglobin in the blood and when mixed
  with oxygen it turns a reddish color, but when
  the oxygen isnt present the color is bluish.
• It often originates with a heart condition which
  causes the blood to be unevenly distributed
  between the left and right sides of the heart and
  oxygen not being distributed.
• Cyanosis can be treated with antibiotics- also
  less exposure to cold temperatures, and keeping
  the body temperature warm helps too.

Pallor and Blanching

• Pallor is caused by a reduced amount of
  oxyhemoglobin in the epidermis.
• Shock, stress and avoiding excessive exposure to
  sunlight (causes lack of melanin), can cause the
  body to become a pale white shade.
• This color is common in people from European
  descent.
• Blanching of skin is usually a localized reaction
  caused by being cold, or because there could be a
  lack of blood flow to that certain tissue.

What causes hair to grow?

• Hair grows by forming new cells at the bottom of
  the root. These cells reproduce to form a rod of
  tissue in the skin. The rods of cells move upward
  through the skin as new cells form beneath them.
• As they move up, they're cut off from their
  supply of food and start to form a hard protein
  called keratin in a process called
  keratinization. As this process happens, the hair
  cells die. The dead cells and keratin shape the
  shaft of the hair.
• Each hair grows about 1/4 inch every month and
  keeps on growing for up to 6 years. The hair then
  falls out and another grows in its place.
• The length of a person's hair depends on the
  length of the growing stage of the follicle.
• Follicles are functioning for 2 to 6 years they
  rest for about 3 months after that. A person
  becomes bald if the scalp follicles become
  inactive and no longer make new hair.
• Thick hair grows out of large follicles skinny
  follicles produce thin hair.

What causes nails to grow?

• Nails grow out of deep folds in the skin of the
  fingers and toes. As epidermal cells below the
  nail root go up to the surface of the skin, they
  add in number, and those next to the nail root
  become nails- flattened and pressed firmly
  together. Each cell is changed into a thin plate
  these plates are piled in layers to form the
  nail.
• As with hair, nails are formed by keratinization.
  When the nail cells builds up, the nail is pushed
  forward.
• The skin underneath the nail is called the
  matrix. The larger part of the nail, the nail
  plate, looks pink because of the network of tiny
  blood vessels in the underlying dermis. The
  whitish crescent-shaped part at the base of the
  nail is called the lunula.
• Like hair, nails grow more rapidly in summer than
  in winter. Though the fingernails and toenails
  grow an average of two inches per year, their
  growth slows with age, and the average adult's
  fingernails grow only one inch over the course of
  eight months.
• White spots on the nail are sometimes due to
  temporary changes in growth rate.
