Dermaplaning
informed consent form
Although every precaution will be taken to ensure your safety and wellbeing before, during and after your Dermaplaning treatment, please be aware of the following information and possible risks. Please initial:
WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning is a form of manual exfoliation similar in theory to microdermabrasion but without the use of suction or abrasive crystals. An esthetician grade, sterile blade is stroked along the skin at an angle to gently "shave off" dead skin cells from the epidermis. Dermaplaning also temporarily removes the fine vellus hair of the face, leaving a very smooth surface. As with any type of exfoliation, the removal of dead skin cells allows home care products to be more effective, reduces the appearance of fine lines, evens skin tone and assists in reducing milia, closed and open comedones, and minor breakouts associated with congested pores. Dermaplaning can be an effective exfoliation method for clients that have couporose (tiny blood vessels near the surface of the skin), sensitive skin or allergies that prevent the use of microdermabrasion or chemical peels.

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT DURING YOUR TREATMENT?
As your esthetician, I will perform a thorough skin analysis prior to your first dermaplaning. If dermaplaning is not appropriate, you will be informed during this session and an alternative treatment may be recommended instead. If dermaplaning is not contraindicated, maximum results are obtained by participating in a series of treatments plus following a home care regimen. I will review your current daily regimen and skin care products, advise you on which products you should continue to use, and recommend any additional products or changes to your regimen to enhance your desired outcome.
*
As your esthetician, I take every precaution to ensure that your skin is well hydrated and calm following each session. However, you may experience excessive dryness or even some peeling between sessions, which may or may not be normal. Always contact me if you have any concerns. More sensitive skin may experience some redness after first couple of sessions. This normally goes away after 2 to 3 hours. Dermaplaning may cause minor superficial abrasions which may not appear until a day or two following your treatment. If this should occur, please contact me so that I can do a post-treatment follow up with you. After your treatment, SPF 30+ MUST be worn at all times. Tanning beds should never be used. You are making an investment in your skin: therefore, it is to your benefit to continue to protect it long after your series of treatments is completed.
*
IS SATISFACTION GUARANTEED?
The majority of my clients receive noticeable, satisfactory to above average results with a series of treatments and a commitment to a daily skin care regimen. However, this outcome cannot be guaranteed as maximum results are highly dependent on age, cumulative sun exposure, health, lifestyle, genetic traits, general skin condition, and willingness to follow recommended protocols. Be aware that many changes may occur deeper within the skin over time. To continue the maintenance of your skin after you complete your treatment(s), I may inform you of long-term age management programs.
*
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Although it is impossible to list every potential risk and complication, the following conditions are recognized as contraindications for dermaplaning treatment and must be disclosed prior to treatment.
*
Acne Active infection of any type, such as herpes simple or flat warts. Any skin lesions Any recent chemical peel procedure Chemotherapy or radiation Eczema or dermatitis Family history of hypertrophic scarring or keloid formation Hemophilia Hormonal therapy that produces thick pigmentation Moles Oral blood thinner medications Pregnancy Recent use of topical agents such as glycolic acids, alpha-hydroxy acids and Retin-A Rosacea Scleroderma Skin cancer Sunburn Tattoos Telangiectasia/erythema may be worsened or brought out by exfoliation Thick, dark facial hair Uncontrolled diabetes Use of Accutane within the last year Vascular lesions
POST-TREATMENT/HOME CARE
Aerobic exercise or vigorous physical activity should be avoided until all redness has subsided. Direct sunlight exposure is to be completely avoided immediately following the treatment (including any strong UV light exposure or tanning beds). SPF 30+ should already be a part of your daily skin care, after dermaplaning, SPF 30+ must be applied daily to the treated area for a minimum of two weeks. Twice daily cleanse the treated area with a post-treatment cleanser, followed by a serum or treatment cream and follow with SPF 30+ sunscreen.

If you have additional questions or concerns regarding your treatment or suggested home regimen, you will consult your esthetician immediately.
