Client waiver and consent.

I agree to tell Thea about my health and skin history before every treatment, including any changes since my last visit.

This includes: prescription or over-the-counter skin products (such as Retin-A, tretinoin, retinol, Differin, or acids), oral acne medication such as Accutane within the last 12 months, antibiotics, blood thinners, or hormone treatments.

It also includes: recent chemical peels, laser treatments, microdermabrasion, sunburn, or tanning; allergies or sensitivities to products, wax, or ingredients; diabetes, circulation problems, skin conditions (such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, cold sores, or open wounds); and pregnancy.

Every facial begins with a skin analysis, and products and steps are chosen for my skin on the day.

I understand that temporary redness, sensitivity, tightness, or breakouts can occur after a facial, and that results vary from person to person.

I understand that waxing removes hair from the root and that temporary redness, bumps, tenderness, minor bleeding, ingrown hairs, or skin lifting can occur, especially on sensitive skin.

I understand that using retinoids, exfoliating acids, or certain medications can make skin more likely to lift, and Thea may decline or adjust a service for my safety.

I agree to follow the aftercare guidance I am given. For 24 to 48 hours after waxing this usually means avoiding hot baths, saunas, heavy exercise, tanning, tight clothing on the area, and fragranced products.

If I have a reaction that concerns me, I will contact Clean Skin by Thea Joseph and seek medical advice if needed.

I confirm that the information I give is accurate and complete. I understand that services are not medical treatment and do not replace advice from a doctor or dermatologist.

I voluntarily agree to receive services and release Clean Skin by Thea Joseph from responsibility for reactions caused by information I did not share.

Clients under 18 need a parent or guardian to complete this waiver with them.
