Accepted Answer

The patient's skin type, age, and treatment area sensitivity

Answer

Suction level must be individualized based on patient skin type, age, and sensitivity of the treatment area to ensure therapeutic benefit and patient safety.

Question 5

In wet hijama practice, which instrument provides the most standardized incision depth control?

Spring-loaded auto-lancet device

Answer

Spring-loaded auto-lancet devices deliver consistent, preset incision depth through a built-in limiting mechanism, reducing the risk of cutting too deep.
