...Reduction of Wrinkling Defect in Deep Drawing Process Abstract. The aim of this experiment is to obtain the best parameters for reducing wrinkle defect during deep drawing process. Deep drawing is a sheet metal forming process where a punch is utilized to force a flat sheet metal to flow into the gap between the punch and die surfaces. Due to that, the sheet metal will deformed into the desired shape. Some of the most common outcomes in deep drawing process are tearing and wrinkling or the formation of uneven height at the top rim of a drawn part due to the material anisotropy. Wrinkling as become a serious obstacle to forming quality and part functions and finally results in scraps. This defects are caused due to change in parameters like...

...produces neurotoxin which can cause dead food poisoning. Yet, this poison has been used as a tool to fight wrinkles. Botulinum toxin marketed in therapeutic doses as “Botox”. Initially, it was used to treat neuro-muscular disease with involuntary muscle contraction symptopms. This problem arises from too little inhibitory input to motor neuron, as compared to excitatory input, thus leading to excessive motor neuron activation. Botulinum toxin injection blocks the release of musclecontraction-causing acetycholine at the neuromuscular junctions. The goal is to inject just enough dosage to relieve the troublesome spasmodic contraction, but not enough to eliminate the normal contractions needed for ordinary movement. Botulinum toxin clears away after 3 to 6 months, so the treatment must be repeated. From treating involuntary muscle contraction to fighting wrinkles Botulinum toxin’s potential as a treatment option for cosmetic surgeon was accidentally discovered when the physicians noted the injections used to counter abnormal eye muscle contractions also smoothed the appearance of wrinkles in the treated area! It turns out that frown lines, crow’s feet, and furrowed brows are caused by facial muscles that have become over-activated, or permanently contracted. This is the results of years of performing certain repetitive facial expression. By relaxing these muscles, botulinum toxin temporarily smoothes out these age-related wrinkles. However, as with its therapeutic...

...P5 - Explain the physical and psychological changes which may be associated with ageing. Physical changes associated with ageing As we grow older our bodies and appearances change, we become slower and our bodies get weaker and delicate. Usually when people age they begin to get wrinkles, wrinkles are when elastic of the skin decreases. The fat stored underneath the skin reduces thus becomes looser and creates wrinkles. Whitehouse stretch B (2010) mentions that – “ Skin can become damaged by excessive exposure to sunlight. Strong sunlight contains ultraviolet rays which damage unprotected skin. Ultraviolet rays case an increase in freckles, age spots, wrinkles and even rough and leathery skin. Using a sun cream with a high ultraviolet protection factor can help to reduce this damage.” Many elderly people are diagnosed with physical illnesses such a as Arthritis, Arthritis is a conduction which damages the joints the body. The cartilage which blackest the bone as we move becomes weaker and thinner and the elastic decreases by age. The osteoarthritis bone ends thickens and creates bone spurs which make movement difficult, people who suffer from arthritis complain about joint pains such as knee, hips this makes it painful when they move.

...Tiffany Gabbard 18 September 2013 English 101 Advertisement Essay Magic Youth Serum “How do I want to look seven even busier years, two teenagers, and eight college applications from today?” This is the question that Olay Total Effects, uses in their advertisement for their Seven-In-One Moisturizer Plus Serum Duo to imply that family, time and stress cause aging to accelerate. The ad answers its own question with, “Not one day older than I do now” creating an aura of a magic serum that stops signs of aging in its tracks, even though we all know that is impossible. The words “old” and “ugly” are synonymous when a woman thinks of aging. Women lie about their age for this exact reason, so the beauty industry markets anti-aging wrinkle creams that claim to help women stay youthful and beautiful. A close up photo of a beautiful blonde woman’s face covers almost the entire page of this advertisement. The model has very minimal makeup and almost flawless skin, aside from a few small wrinkles underneath her eyes. Her expression is confident with a slight knowing smile as if she has found the secret formula all women have been desperately searching for.

...FUNCTIONS OF THE INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM The integumentary system has many functions, most of which are involved in protecting you and regulating your body’s internal functions in a variety of ways: · Protects the body's internal living tissues and organs · Protects against invasion by infectious organisms · Protects the body from dehydration · Protects the body against abrupt changes in temperature · Helps dispose of waste materials · Acts as a receptor for touch, pressure, pain, heat, and cold · Stores water and fat Skin structure The skin is the largest organ of the body. It has three main layers, the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutaneous layer. The epidermis is an elastic layer on the outside that is continually being regenerated. It includes the following: Keratinocytes - the main cells of the epidermis formed by cell division at its base. New cells continually move towards the surface. As they move they gradually die and become flattened. Corneocytes - the flattened dead keratinocytes that together make up the very outer layer of the epidermis is called the stratum corneum or horny layer. This protective layer is continually worn away or shed. Melanocytes – produce the pigment melanin that protects against UV radiation and gives skin its colour. The dermis is the inner layer that includes the following: Sweat glands – produce sweat that travels via sweat ducts to openings in the epidermis called pores. They play a role in temperature regulation...

...Personification, Metonymy, and Rhyme which are used to emphasize nature’s beauty. The rhythm in this poem creates shifts which attract the reader’s attention to what’s happening. There is a rhythmic pattern in stanzas one and two: 7,6,8,6. This is not a coincidence because the author is trying to express change in the poem. These two stanzas are separated from the rest. Stanzas one and two prove that they are talking about one main thing: beauty of the woman as well as the snow falling on the road and mountains. The illusion in line three suggests the color and size of the snow droplets. In the first two stanzas she is doing one thing: looking at her reflection in the mirror while putting make up on: “It fills with Alabaster Wool,” (3) “The Wrinkles of the Road.” (4) Towards the end of the poem it switches to her dressing herself up in garments, “It...

...QUESTIONS • CHALLENGES • CONTROVERSIES Section Editor: James Q. Del Rosso, DO, FAOCD products, and failure to discern “fiction from fact” related to unsubstantiated claims made by some OTC anti-aging skin care products. A cosmeceutical product by definition is a cosmetic product in which the active ingredient is meant to have a beneficial physiological effect due to an enhanced pharmacological action when compared with an inert cosmetic.1 Every day in clinical practice, dermatologists see patients who ask them if cosmeceutical products are beneficial. Accurate advice is a challenge that requires knowledge of the structure and function of human skin and the available scientific data, which may or may not support the efficacy of a given cosmeceutical product. As dermatologists, it is very hard for us to keep up with the latest evidence on the popular cosmeceutical ingredients due to the vastness of ingredients, the multitude of commercially available products and their efficacy claims, and the validity or accuracy of data gleaned from invitro and clinical studies, if available. How Much Do We Really Know About Our Favorite Cosmeceutical Ingredients? Jacquelyn Levin, DO; James Q. Del Rosso, DO, FAOCD; Saira B. Momin, DO Abstract To date, we are unaware of a review that has investigated common cosmeceutical ingredients in order to answer the three specific questions proposed by the father of cosmeceuticals, Dr. Albert Kligman. It is the goal of this review to gather all...

...Intake : …………………..………….…..………...…. Date : .………..…………...... Use this article about Botox to answer the questions that follow: Beauty with Botox Botox injections are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world. Celebrities like Madonna, Kylie Minogue and Liz Hurley are rumoured to be keeping the wrinkles at bay this way. Sir Cliff Richard admitted to having had the treatment and now it is an increasingly popular choice for ordinary women looking for a quick way to look younger. What is Botox? Botox is made from ‘botulinum toxin’, a poison produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. This bacterium causes botulism - a severe form of food poisoning. In small quantities, however, Botox merely interrupts nerve impulses to muscles in the face. Botox first began to be used in 1980 to treat many muscle disorders such as lazy eye, eye ticks and uncontrolled blinking. Cosmetic treatments were pioneered by dermatological surgeons in 1987. In small doses, Botox works by paralysing the muscles of the face which are used in frowning and raising the eyebrows. When these muscles relax, the fine lines and wrinkles smooth out. Unfortunately, when it is overdone, Botox treatment can leave the face with a lack of expression. This is reputed to have caused a problem for some actors. Armpit attack Botox is reportedly a favourite with Oscar...

...research showing its efficacy for wound healing (but not for wrinkles), it does deserve comment. HGFs make up a complex family of hormones that are produced by the body to control cell growth and cell division in skin, blood, bone, and nerve tissue. Most significantly, HGFs regulate the division and reproduction of cells, and they also can influence the growth rate of some cancers. HGFs occur naturally in the body, but they also are synthesized and used in medicine for a range of applications, including wound healing and immune-system stimulation. HGFs are chemical messengers that bind to receptor sites on the cell surface (receptor sites are places where cells communicate with a substance to let them know what or what not to do). HGFs must communicate with cells to instruct them to activate the production of new cells, or to instruct a cell to create new cells that have different functions. Another way to think of HGFs is that they are messengers designed to be received or “heard” by specific receptor sites or “ears” on the cell. HGFs, such as transforming growth factor (TGF, stimulates collagen production) or epidermal growth factor (EGF, stimulates skin-cell production), play a significant role in healing surgical wounds. The main task of HGFs is to cause cell division, which is helpful; however, at certain concentrations and over certain durations of application they can cause cells to over-proliferate, which can cause cancer or other health problems. But what happens when you...

...ADESOLA JOSEPH, BTEC LEVEL 3 HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE. DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE LIFE STAGES. P5) Explain the physical and psychological changes which may be associated with ageing. The ageing process does not begin at a particular age as people age throughout their lives. We start to age from when we are young, but the real aging process does not start until our cells stop to divide and physiological decline sets in. Different older adults age in different ways. Some older adults develop serious problems due to aging in their 60s, while others can be as old as 90 years old and not have any serious problems. There are different theories proposed as to why we age and why we have a limited lifespan. It seems that our body cells have a limited ability to renew themselves. If cells cannot renew themselves then we cannot repair ourselves and stay healthy. A doctor Hayflick proposed that most body cells can only renew themselves fifty times or so, and when cells can no longer renew themselves, body processes breakdown, body tissue becomes wasted and eventually we die. This limit to cell life is called the Hayflick limit. A theory that links with the Hayflick limit is one which suggests that cell DNA contains a region at each end called a telomere. Each time a cell renews itself, the DNA inside is copied and part of the telomere is lost. By old age, all the telomere can be used up and DNA can no longer be replicated. This results in cell death. Hormone production decreases with age...

... A.Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) The main reason for Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is when many of the blood vessels in the retina close; it prevents enough blood flow which is required for flowing. Then as an attempt for supply blood to the area where the original vessels closed; retina responds this by growing new blood vessels which is called neo-vascularization. The new blood vessels formed are abnormal .So they become unable to supply the proper blood flow to the retina. Thus the new vessels formed are also often accompanied by scar tissue .It may cause the retina to wrinkle or detach. The more severe vision loss is seen in the PDR than NPDR as it is responsible for affecting both central and peripheral vision. Following are some ways by which PDR affects vision. The new vessels are fragile and starts bleeding referred as hemorrhage and may cause vision loss along with scarring of the retina. Everyone who has diabetes is more than 30 years for showing different symptoms of DR. Blindness, Blurred vision, Floaters and shadow or missing areas of vision are some of symptoms of diabetic retinopathy. Eye of major bleeding of many people is in early diabetic retinopathy . So each and every one suffered from diabetis should have regular eye check up. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) mainly occur When many of the blood vessels in the retina close to each other it results in Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) which prevents enough...
