  1. When photographing patients for a facial aesthetics portfolio, which lighting setup best captures subtle volume changes from filler treatments?

    Answer: Rembrant lighting with a 45-degree side key light

    Rembrant lighting at 45 degrees creates shadows that reveal facial contour and volume changes more accurately than flat front lighting.

  2. A patient requests removal of their before-and-after photos from your portfolio after they appear on your clinic website. Under HIPAA, you must:

    Answer: Remove them promptly as the patient retains the right to revoke authorization

    HIPAA allows patients to revoke authorization for the use of their PHI in marketing materials, and practitioners must honor revocation promptly.

  3. Which metric is most useful for evaluating whether portfolio images on a clinic website are generating new patient inquiries?

    Answer: Conversion rate from gallery page visits to contact form submissions

    Conversion rate from gallery page visits to contact form submissions directly links portfolio exposure to new patient acquisition.

  4. For a FAC portfolio submission, standardized views typically required for lip augmentation cases include:

    Answer: Frontal, bilateral oblique (45°), and lateral profiles

    Frontal, bilateral 45-degree oblique, and lateral profile views together capture lip shape, volume, and projection comprehensively.

  5. A practitioner notices their portfolio photos show inconsistent patient positioning across cases. The best corrective strategy is to:

    Answer: Implement a standardized positioning protocol with a chin rest and fixed camera distance going forward

    A standardized positioning protocol with physical aids ensures reproducible views for all future cases, enabling genuine before-and-after comparisons.

  6. When selecting cases for a FAC certification portfolio, which criterion should take priority over all others?

    Answer: Cases that demonstrate a broad range of techniques across diverse patient presentations

    Certification bodies assess competency across diverse techniques and patient types, making breadth and skill demonstration the primary selection criterion.

  7. Which digital format is recommended for archiving high-resolution clinical portfolio images to prevent quality loss over time?

    Answer: PNG or TIFF at full resolution as master files

    PNG and TIFF are lossless formats that preserve full image quality for archiving, while JPEG compression degrades image data with each save.
