1. I, hereby give consent to SARA AESTHETIC to perform a Platelet-rich plasma (“PRP”) injection treatment. I also consent to any other healthcare services during the procedure that may become medically reasonable and necessary within the reasonable judgement of a healthcare professional. This includes, but is not limited to, the administration of anaesthetics necessary to perform PRP injections.
2. I have declared that I have allergies on my health history intake form.
3. I have declared that I take the follow medications on my health history intake form.
4. I understand that PRP can be used to treat hair loss. I fully understand the results that I may reasonably
expect. I understand that not all patients get improvement.
5. I declare I do not have any of the following conditions which might otherwise not make me a candidate:
Current infections, Skin diseases such as lupus or porphyria, Current cancer, Current chemotherapy treatments, Severe metabolic or systemic disorders, Liver disease, Abnormal platelet function (blood
disorders), Anticoagulation therapy, Current use of corticosteroids, Steroid injections in my scalp in the last month.
6. An explanation of the procedure has been given to me. I understand that blood will be drawn from a vein in
my arm. That blood will then be placed in a PRP machine to be spun down in order to concentrate the platelets
and then injected back into my scalp.
7. I am aware of the pros, cons, and alternatives to PRP injections. I understand that the PRP injection
procedure is an “elective” procedure. If I do not have PRP injections, I will not experience harm or negative consequences for my body other than potentially losing more hair
8. I understand that hair loss is sometimes continuous throughout life for some people. I understand that additional PRP injection procedures may be needed and that some individuals would expect 1-3 sessions.
