I give my consent for the following procedure: Dermaplaning, to be performed by BodyWorks Day Spa.
Dermaplaning is a physical/mechanical form of exfoliation using a specialized Dermaplaning blade for the removal of built-up, dead skin cells, and vellous hair. Following treatment, skin will be smoother, and better able to absorb the active ingredients in treatment and at-home care products.
I understand this treatment involves the use of a sterile, surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and vellous hair. As with the use of any sharp instrument, there is the possibility of nicks and/or cuts.
I understand there are contraindications to this treatment, including but not limited to: diabetes (not controlled by diet or medication), cancer, active acne, bleeding disorders, the inability for blood to coagulate, or the development of keloids following injury. Certain medications, including blood thinners, higher doses of Aspirin, and Accutane are contraindicated for this treatment due to the possibility of delayed clotting from a nick or cut.
I certify that I am not taking any of the above mentioned medications and am not experiencing any of the above mentioned conditions.
While every precaution will be taken to avoid nicks, cuts, and/or scratches, I understand the risks and consent to treatment today.
