Microchanneling is an elective procedure for cosmetic purposes only. I have had the opportunity to ask questions and
understand the nature, goals, limitations, and possible complications of this treatment. I have had the opportunity to discuss
alternative forms of treatment and understand that results may vary.
While Microchanneling treatments are safe and effective for most women and men, there are some people who will not be good
candidates for treatments. Here is a general contraindication:
- Pregnancy - if you are pregnant or nursing you are advised to not receive any Microchanneling treatments. To date there
have been no studies conducted to see what effects these treatments may have on the unborn child, but as a general rule,
pregnant women should stay away from any type of cosmetic/elective procedures.
- Diabetes - unstable diabetes patients should not be treated due to healing problems.
- Active Herpes Simplex in the treatment area - treatment is possible once the outbreak is healed, however it may be
advisable to take prescription strength antiviral medication to keep this condition in remission during the treatment series.
- Dry skin - if your skin is overly dry, you will need to start moisturizing and ensure the condition is under control prior to
undergoing any treatment.
- Any active inflammatory skin condition - e.g. eczema, psoriasis, infection, rash or any type of dermatitis at the treatment site
(because it may aggravate the condition).
Are you over 18 years of age?
(initial) I understand that if I have a history of cold sores, herpes or fever blisters I must take my medication
prescribed by my physician in advance or tell the technician to skip treatment around my lips.
Please check any that apply to you

and to apply topical preparations as determined

in my skin to promote healing responses to rejuvenate my skin. I understand that the procedure is performed with an
automatic perforating device and that clinical results may vary. I understand there is a possibility of short-term effects
such as reddening, peeling, scabbing, temporary bruising and temporary discoloration of the skin, as well as rare side
effects such as infection & scarring. These effects have been fully explained to me. Clinical results may vary
depending on individual factors, including medical history, amount of sun damage or textural problems, skin type, and
my compliance with pre/post treatment instructions.
I understand that the Microchanneling treatment may involve a series of treatments and the fee structure has been
fully explained to me.
I certify that I have been fully informed of the nature and purpose of the procedure, expected outcomes and possible
complications, and I understand that no guarantee can be given as to the final result obtained. I am fully aware that my
condition is of cosmetic concern and that the decision to proceed is based solely on my expressed desire to do so.
I confirm that I am not pregnant at this time. I also have completed a medical history checklist and been informed about
