Client Responsibility and Consent
Prior to undergoing any cosmetic procedure, including fractional laser treatment, it is imperative that clients understand and acknowledge the associated risks and responsibilities. In compliance with UK law, all clients are required to sign a consent form, affirming that they assume full responsibility for the outcomes of the treatment. This consent signifies that the client has been informed of potential risks, side effects, and contraindications, and agrees to proceed with the treatment under these terms.
Contraindications for Fractional Laser Treatment
Fractional laser treatment is not suitable for individuals with the following conditions or circumstances:
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Individuals who are pregnant or currently breastfeeding should avoid laser treatments due to hormonal changes that can affect skin sensitivity and healing.
Recent Sun Exposure or Tanned Skin: Clients who have had recent sun exposure, sunburn, or have used self-tanning products should postpone treatment. Tanned skin increases the risk of adverse effects such as burns or pigmentation changes. It is recommended to wait at least four weeks after sun exposure before undergoing laser treatment.
Active Acne or Skin Infections: Individuals with active acne, open lesions, or any skin infections in the treatment area should delay treatment until the condition has fully healed to prevent exacerbation and ensure optimal healing.
Photosensitising Medications: Clients taking medications that increase sensitivity to light, such as certain antibiotics, antidepressants, or anti-inflammatory drugs, should consult with their healthcare provider before undergoing laser treatment. These medications can heighten the risk of adverse reactions.
Chronic Skin Conditions: Individuals with conditions like psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo, or a history of keloid scarring should seek medical advice prior to treatment, as laser procedures may aggravate these conditions.
Recent Cosmetic Procedures: Clients who have recently undergone chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or other laser treatments should allow adequate time for skin recovery before scheduling a fractional laser procedure.
Client Consent and Medical Questionnaire
To ensure the safety and suitability of our treatments, all clients must complete a comprehensive medical questionnaire and consent form prior to the procedure. This process includes:
Medical History Assessment: Clients will provide detailed information regarding their medical history, current medications, and any existing health conditions.
Contraindication Screening: Specific questions will identify potential contraindications, such as pregnancy status, recent sun exposure, active skin conditions, and use of photosensitizing medications.
Informed Consent: Clients will receive thorough information about the treatment process, potential risks, expected outcomes, and aftercare requirements. Signing the consent form indicates understanding and acceptance of these factors.
