Question

1. the procedural term dermatoplasty includes:

deviated septum correction
chin reductions
liposuction
face lifts

1. the diagnostic term geriatric alopecia actually means:

old age baldness
scalp treatment
teenage vitiligo
female hair loss

Explanation:

Question 27

Dermatoplasty refers to the surgical repair of the skin. A face lift (rhytidectomy) involves the surgical manipulation of the skin of the face, which falls under dermatoplasty. Deviated septum correction is related to the nasal septum (not skin), chin reductions focus on the chin bone/tissue (not primarily skin), and liposuction is fat removal (not skin repair).

"Geriatric" relates to old age, and "Alopecia" means hair loss/baldness. So Geriatric Alopecia means baldness due to old age. Scalp treatment is too general, teenage vitiligo is a skin condition in teens (not hair loss), and female hair loss is not specific to old age.

Answer:

face lifts
