1. Introduction

I, [Patient's Name], acknowledge that I have voluntarily chosen to undergo Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster at Elen Rivas Beauty Clinic after carefully considering the information provided to me. I have had the opportunity to ask questions and have received satisfactory answers. I understand the nature of the Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster procedure and the potential risks and benefits associated with it.

2. Procedure Objective

The objective of the Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster treatment is to enhance the appearance and texture of my skin by improving hydration, reducing fine lines, and promoting overall skin rejuvenation. The treatment aims to provide a brighter, more even skin tone and a youthful, revitalised complexion.

3. Procedure Description

During the Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster treatment, a microneedling device will be used to create micro-injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response and enhances the absorption of the Lemon Bottle Skin Booster solution, which contains ingredients designed to improve skin texture and brightness. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically requires a short recovery period.

4. Expected Results

The benefits of Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster may include improved skin hydration, reduced appearance of fine lines, enhanced skin texture, and a brighter complexion. However, individual results may vary depending on factors such as skin type, age, and the specific condition of the skin.

5. Risks and Side Effects

While Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster is generally safe, there are certain risks and side effects associated with the procedure. These may include:

• Temporary discomfort, including a mild stinging or tingling sensation during the procedure. This discomfort usually subsides shortly after the treatment.
• Redness and swelling in the treated areas are common side effects. These are typically mild and subside within a few hours to a few days. Applying a cold compress can help reduce these symptoms.
• Bruising can develop in some cases, usually minor and fading within a week.
• The treated skin may become more sensitive than usual, resulting in increased sensitivity to touch, temperature changes, and skincare products. This sensitivity usually resolves within a few days.
• Pigmentation changes may occur, including hyperpigmentation (darkening) or hypopigmentation (lightening). These changes are usually temporary but can be permanent in rare cases.
• Post-treatment dryness and flaking can happen as part of the healing process. Keeping the skin moisturised is essential to alleviate these symptoms.
• There is a rare risk of infection if the treated area is not kept clean. Following post-treatment care instructions carefully minimises this risk.
• In rare instances, blisters or burns can develop on the treated skin. This can occur if the microneedling settings are too high or if the skin is not adequately prepared for the procedure. Proper care and following post-treatment guidelines can help prevent these complications.
• While uncommon, there is a slight risk of scarring, particularly if the skin is prone to keloid formation. Patients with a history of keloid scarring should inform their practitioner before treatment.
• Some patients might experience temporary muscle weakness in the treated areas, usually mild and resolving within a few days.
• Occasionally, headaches can occur following the treatment. These are generally mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
• Temporary numbness or altered sensation in the treated areas may happen. This side effect usually resolves on its own within a few days to weeks.
• Some patients may experience temporary skin sensitivity or irritation.
• Rarely, mild skin burns or blisters can occur.
• Patients may experience slight discomfort from sitting still during the procedure.
• Mild redness or swelling may appear in the treated area.

It is essential for patients to discuss any concerns and their medical history with their practitioner before undergoing Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster to minimise risks and ensure the best possible outcomes.

Anticipated Outcomes and Results of the Treatment

Microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster is designed to enhance skin quality and address various concerns. Understanding the expected timeline for results and their longevity can help you manage your expectations and achieve optimal outcomes. Here is a comprehensive overview:

Immediate Results Post-Treatment

• After your initial microneedling session with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster, you may observe some immediate improvements in skin hydration and texture. This early enhancement results from the infusion of active ingredients and the initiation of the skin’s healing response. While immediate changes can be noticeable, they are often subtle and will evolve over time.

Early Results 2-4 Weeks Post-Treatment

• Noticeable changes generally become apparent within 2 to 4 weeks following the first session. During this period, improvements in skin texture, hydration, and a reduction in minor pigmentation issues are often observed. The skin begins to show signs of rejuvenation and enhanced radiance.

Substantial Improvements 2-3 Months Post-Treatment

The most significant and optimal results typically emerge around 2 to 3 months after completing the recommended series of microneedling sessions. This timeframe allows for the full effect of collagen stimulation and skin regeneration. During this phase, you can expect:

• Enhanced Skin Texture: A smoother, more refined skin surface due to increased cellular turnover and regeneration.
• Reduction in Fine Lines: Noticeable decrease in fine lines and wrinkles, resulting from improved collagen and elastin production.
• Improved Hydration: Greater skin hydration and a plumper appearance, thanks to the deep infusion of hydrating agents.
• Even Skin Tone: More uniform skin tone with reduced pigmentation irregularities and enhanced radiance.

Longevity of Results

• The duration of results can vary depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle. Typically, the benefits of microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster can last up to 6 to 12 months. Ongoing natural aging and environmental factors will gradually affect skin quality over time.

Maintenance and Follow-Up

• To maintain the results, periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended. These sessions help to sustain the benefits of the initial treatment and support ongoing skin rejuvenation. Maintenance frequency will vary based on individual needs but is often scheduled every 6 to 12 months.

Ongoing Skincare

• Adhering to a consistent skincare routine, including effective hydration and sun protection, can help extend the benefits of microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster. Your skincare provider can offer personalised advice on suitable products and practices.

‍

In summary, while immediate improvements are visible, optimal results from microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster are typically achieved within 2 to 3 months. Results can last up to 12 months, with regular maintenance and proper skincare practices helping to prolong the benefits.

Individual experiences may vary, so discussing your expectations and post-treatment care with your provider is essential for achieving and maintaining your desired outcomes.

Important Pre-Treatment Care and Preparation Guidelines

Preparation for undergoing microneedling with Lemon Bottle Skin Booster involves several steps to ensure the procedure's safety and effectiveness. Here's a comprehensive overview of the client's preparation:

• Avoid wearing makeup to your treatment, if possible. Makeup can interfere with the microneedling process and increase the risk of post-treatment complications.
• Avoid any irritants to your skin, such as products containing retinoic acid, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic or salicylic acids, and astringents for 1 week before your treatment, unless otherwise advised by your treating clinician. These ingredients can make your skin more sensitive.
• Do not wax, tweeze, or use a depilatory cream on the treatment areas for 1 week prior to your treatment. Such methods can irritate the skin and affect treatment outcomes.
• If you have received filler treatments, wait at least 4 weeks before undergoing microneedling. For Botox injections, a waiting period of at least 2 weeks is recommended to avoid interference with the treatment.
• Drink plenty of water to ensure your skin is well-hydrated. Proper hydration supports the skin’s healing process and overall health.
• For body contouring treatments, avoid consuming foods high in salt for a few hours before the treatment. High salt intake can lead to fluid retention, which may impact treatment results.
• Male clients should shave the day before the treatment to avoid any discomfort and ensure a smoother treatment experience.

Consultation

• The preparation process begins with an initial consultation with a qualified healthcare provider who specialises in microneedling. During this consultation, the provider will assess your skin condition, discuss treatment goals, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.

Medical History and Allergies

• Provide a detailed medical history to the healthcare provider. This includes information about existing medical conditions, allergies, medications, and previous cosmetic procedures to anticipate and manage any potential risks.

Skin Assessment

• The provider will conduct a thorough assessment of your skin to identify specific concerns and tailor the treatment plan accordingly. This assessment ensures that the microneedling treatment is customised to your skin’s needs.

Sun Exposure

• In the weeks leading up to the treatment, minimise sun exposure to the treatment areas. Excessive sun exposure can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of complications.

Skincare Products

• Discontinue the use of certain skincare products containing ingredients that can increase skin sensitivity, such as retinoids or alpha hydroxy acids, for a few days before the procedure.

Medications and Supplements

• Review your current medications and supplements with the healthcare provider. Some may need to be temporarily discontinued to reduce the risk of complications.

Hydration

• Maintain adequate hydration levels leading up to the procedure to support skin health and resilience.

Avoidance of Blood Thinners

• Avoid blood-thinning medications, herbal supplements (such as ginkgo biloba and garlic), and foods high in vitamin E for a specified period before the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.

Shaving and Makeup

• If necessary, shave the treatment area before the session. Arrive at the clinic without makeup or skincare products on the treatment areas.

Comfortable Clothing

• Wear comfortable clothing to the appointment, as you will need to lie down during the procedure.

Arrangements for Transportation

• Arrange transportation to and from the clinic if needed. Mild post-treatment effects such as redness or swelling may occur.

Questions and Clarifications

• Use the consultation to ask any questions or seek clarifications about the procedure, expected results, and aftercare.

Informed Consent
