While completing the consent form, clients must answer a series of questions that skincare professionals will review before administering treatment. These answers will pinpoint issues that could compromise the client’s safety and the overall results of treatment. Below are some factors that should be taken into consideration.

• Acne Medication Use – Acne medications like Accutane and Claravis contain isotretinoin, which can make the skin more sensitive and increase the potential for scarring.
• Skin-Related Issues – If the client has skin cancer, eczema, cold sores, or other skin conditions, they must consult their doctor to assess whether facial treatments are safe.
• Allergies – By understanding a client’s allergies, skincare professionals can avoid using products and ingredients containing allergens.
