Chemical Peel Consent
  • Chemical Peel Consent Form

    A chemical peel is a procedure in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layer(s) of your skin. It causes exfoliation and your skin may visibly peel off with new regenerated skin underneath. A chemical peel can help diminish the appearance of fine lines/wrinkles, improve skin texture, stimulate collagen, and help to even skin tone. This procedure may cause swelling, redness, crusting, dryness, skin sensitivity, itching, or peeling of the site which could last 1-2 weeks. In the days after the peel, the skin may feel and look tight with parchment-paper like changes or darkening. These are expected reactions.
  • Prior to receiving treatment, I have been candid in revealing any condition that may have bearing on this procedure such as pregnancy, recent facial surgery, allergies, tendency for cold sores/fever blisters, topical and/or oral prescription medications such as tretinoin, Retin-A, isotretinoin, Accutane, Differin, Tazarac, Avage, Epiduo or Ziana.  

    ·      I understand there may be some degree of discomfort such as stinging, pin-prickling sensation, heat, or tightness.

    ·      I understand there are no guarantees as to the results of this treatment due to many variables such as age, condition of skin, sun damage, etc.

    ·      I understand that I may or may not actually peel and that each case is individual.

    ·      I understand the amount of peeling does not correlate with degree of improvement.

    ·      I understand this is a cosmetic treatment and that no medical claims are expressed or implied. I understand that to achieve maximum results, I may need several treatments.

    ·      I understand that although complications are very rare, sometimes they may occur, and that prompt treatment is necessary. In the event of any complications, I will immediately contact Katherine Booth, who performed the treatment.

    ·      I agree to refrain from tanning indoors or outdoors while I am undergoing treatment and for 14 days prior or following the chemical peel.

    ·      I understand that extended direct sun exposure is prohibited while I am undergoing the treatment and that daily use of sunscreen protection with a minimum of 30 is mandatory.

    I hereby agree to all the above and agree to have this treatment performed on me. I further agree to follow all post-peel care instructions as directed.
