Blue Spots
I have a question for all of you. I have a customer that just started tanning with me, she is Puerto Rican and after tanning at another salon in a stand-up she noticed a blue round spot on her ribcage area.....She did go to the doctor and he told her that he didn't know what it was and didn't think it was related to tanning. She said that it appeared after a tanning session at the other salon she was going to. She wanted to know if I had ever heard of anything like that. I have told her that I have not.....She showed it to me and it looks like a perfectly round bruise and now she has had it for a couple of months.
So okay she starts tanning with me and brings her sister in as well. Her sister has never tanned before and first went in our power bed. 4th visit I put her in the stand-up and now she also has a blue spot that has appeared on her back, but it is not round shaped, she explains it as a little long blue spot. She also is Puerto Rican. Any ideas???????

I know it is! I said maybe it has something to do with the pigment in your skin! I told them to go to the doctor cause I have never ever heard or seen anything like it!

 I often wonder if my clients have some sort of seizures in the standup. Seems to be some very odd handprints and lotion smudges in there.

Could this be it???
Mongolian birthmark A mongolian birthmark, also known as blue spots, are common among darker skinned races, such as Asian, East Indian, African and Hispanic. They are flat, pigmented lesions with nebulous borders and irregular shape. The mongolian birthmark are benign skin markings which appear commonly at the base of the spine, on the buttocks or back, as well as the shoulders. The mongolian birthmark can occasionally be mistaken for bruises and embarrassing child abuse theories have been known to arise. The mongolian birthmark is flat, can be deep brown, slate gray, or blue-black in colour, with edges often, but not always, indistinct. They vary from the size of a pinhead to six inches or more across. At least one mongolian birthmark is present on over 90% of Native Americans and people of African descent, over 80% of Asians, and over 70% of Hispanics. The mongolian birthmark is nothing more than a dense collections of melanocytes, the skin cells which contain melanin, the normal pigment of the skin. When the melanocytes are close to the surface, they look deep brown. The deeper they are in the skin, the more bluish they look. The mongolian birthmark is present at birth and fades by the age of two. Most have completely disappeared by the age of five. If the mongolian birthmark remains at the onset of puberty, they are likely to be permanent, but fewer than 5% of children with a mongolian birthmark still have them by adulthood. Those who do tend to be the ones with multiple, widespread blue spots, or with blue spots in unusual locations. |
