What is blood
A colorless liquid, rich with white blood cells called lymphocytes, that attacks bacteria in the blood.
What is lymph fluid
The primary components include the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
What is the nervous system
Alpha Hydroxy Acids
What are AHAs
Remove cells from only the stratum corneum and have an esthetician administer.
What are superficial peels
A cone-shaped muscular organ located in the chest cavity. This organ is entirely encased in a thick membrane called the pericardium.
What is the heart
This system is connected with the cardiovascular system and is responsible for picking up and returning leaked tissue fluid and plasma proteins to the cardiovascular system.
What is the lymphatic system
This controls the nervous system.
What is the brain
Beta Hydroxy Acids
What are BHAs
Penetrates deeper into the dermal layer and is administered by physicians.
What are medium or deep peels
This includes arteries, veins, and capillaries.
What are blood vessels
The primary role is to filter out bacteria and other harmful substances traveling through the lymphatic fluid.
What are lymph nodes
Appears as a whitish fiber or bundle of fibers that transmits impulses and sensations to the brain or spinal cord and impulses from these to the muscles and organs.
What are nerves
Include Glycolic acid (smallest molecular size), Lactic acid (largest molecular size), Tartaric acid, Malic acid, Citrus acid, and Mandalic acid (largest molecular size).
What are AHAs
Ready-to-use masks and powder with liquid activator, which is proteolytic in nature, work to digest the keratin in dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. Includes bromelain, papain, pancreatin, and trypsin.
What are enzymes
The scientific term for redness.
What is erythema
The lymphatic system's job is to maintain balance between blood and tissue within the body, known as fluid homeostasis.
What is fluid balance
This is part of the central nervous system and is responsible for all involuntary body functions.

What is the peripheral nervous system
The process of removing excess accumulations of dead skin cells from the corneum layers of the epidermis is superficial peeling, exfoliation, keratolysis, and desquamation.
What is Chemical Exfoliation
Trichloroacetic acid peels. It may not be neutralized and sometimes remains on the face for rinsing later. Home care regimen must be followed.
