- You may be asked to stop any topical medications or skin care products prior to treatment
- Avoid sun exposure and sun bed for 4 – 6 weeks prior to treatment. RECENTLY TANNED SKIN CANNOT BE TREATED. If treated within two weeks of active (natural sunlight or tanning booth) tanning, after treatment, you may develop burns that heal in hypo-pigmented white spots, and this may not clear for 2-3 months. In extreme cases, this may be permanent
- The use of self-tanning products/bronzers must be discontinued one week before treatment. Any residual self-tanner must be removed prior to treatment
- Shave the area to be treated one day prior to treatment
- If you have had a history of perioral or genital herpes simplex virus, antiviral therapy is recommended in order to prevent a breakout. Follow the directions for your particular antiviral medication
- The treatment area should be clean of any perfume, deodorant, makeup, lotions, sun block, or any other chemical or skincare products
INTRA-TREATMENT CARE
- At the beginning of every treatment session, we will review your medical status, and ask if there have been any changes. Please remember to inform us of any changes such as health, medications, and sun exposure. Changes may alter the effectiveness of treatment and may cause side effects and/or complications
- The skin is cleaned prior to treatment
- The technician may line the area with a white pencil in order to effectively treat you. This will wash off
- When treating the upper lip, the teeth can be protected with white gauze. The gauze also serves to support the lip during treatment allowing a surface to push against
- Safety considerations are important during the procedure.
- Some clients may feel a slight discomfort or pain after treatment sometimes described as an intense heat like a sunburn with excessive redness and possible swelling.
POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
- Immediately after the treatment, there may be swelling and redness in the areas that are treated. The redness may last up to 2-3 days. It is normal for the treated area to feel like sunburn for a few hours after treatment. You should use a soothing gel that is available in our salon in conjunction with a cold compress (not frozen, but cold), aloe gel, or topical hydrocortisone. An antihistamine may be used as well. Please be mindful that some antihistamines may cause drowsiness and should be avoided if driving or operating heavy machinery. If any crusting, apply antibiotic cream. Patients with darker pigmented skin may have more discomfort than those with lighter skin, and may require the aloe gel or an antibiotic ointment longer
- Treat blistered or ulcerated skin with a prescribed antibiotic ointment or burn treatment cream
- For 48 hours please avoid any activity that will raise body heat. No strenuous activities, no hot tub, steam room, sauna
- Please do not scrub or exfoliate the skin
- Keep your skin clean to avoid infection
- There are no restrictions on bathing except to treat the skin gently for the first 24 hours as if you have a sunburn, and to use cool water. The treated area may be washed gently with a mild soap. Skin should be patted dry and NOT rubbed. You may apply deodorant after 24 hours.
- Apply moisturizer several hours after treatment and regularly throughout the course of the treatment
- Wait 12-hours to use a skin cleanser. Make up can be applied 24 hours after treatment unless there is skin irritation or blistering. It is recommended to use new makeup to reduce the possibility of infection. Make sure that you have moisturizer on under your makeup. Frequent use of moisturizer is encouraged. Please make sure the moisturizer used does not have alpha-hydroxy acids
- Avoid sun exposure for two months to reduce the chance of dark or light spots. Use sunscreen SPF 30 or higher at all times throughout the treatment and for 1-2 months following
- Avoid tanning of any sort during the entire course of treatment.

Client's Name*

First NameLast Name
I hereby authorize Simply Skin Las Vegas, its employees/agents/clinicians to perform Sublative RF treatments on me. Treatment Sites include: Face, area surrounding lip, outer orbit area of the eyes, arms, thighs, abdomen, hands, buttocks, hips, chest

The purpose of this procedure is to use a Sublative RF device that is used for cosmetic dermatological procedures requiring ablation (wounding the skin to the dermal layer) to help resurface the skin, smooth, tighten, contour, reduce fine lines, and treat sagging skin, facial wrinkles, and scars - of which I hereby consent to being a patient receiving treatment.

Radio Frequency uses electrical pulses to target and penetrate the underlayer of skin using heat to stimulate collagen. During procedure you will feel a brief deep heating sensation. Results should be visible and improve over a period of two to six months.

I understand that the treatment is purely elective. Alternative methods to Radio Frequency are Botox, Dermal Fillers, Laser and Surgery. I understand that certain complications are rare, but possible.

Side effects are rare but can include swelling, redness, scab formation, temporary bumps, minor burns and blisters on or around the treated area, temporary discoloration of the skin, as well as the possibility of rare side effects such as burn, scarring and permanent discoloration.

The procedure may result in the following side effects or adverse experiences, and may carry some risks
- DISCOMFORT – Some discomfort may be experienced during treatment
- REDNESS/SWELLING/BRUISING – Short-Term/temporary redness (erythema), swelling (edema), and/or mild sunburn-like effects of the treated area is common and may occur. There also may be slight bruising.
- SKIN COLOR CHANGES – There is a possibility that the treated area may become either darker (hyper-pigmentation) or lighter (hypo-pigmentation). These conditions usually resolve within 3-6 months, but permanent color change is a rare risk. Compliance with the aftercare guidelines and avoiding sun exposure before and after the treatment reduces the risk of color change.
- WOUNDS – Treatment can result in burning, blistering, or pinpoint bleeding of the treated areas. If any of these occur, please contact our office immediately.
- INFECTION/BREAKOUTS – Infection is a possibility whenever the skin surface is disrupted, although proper wound care should prevent this. If signs of infection such as pain, heat, or surrounding redness develop, please call our office immediately. If you have had a history of perioral or genital herpes simplex virus, antiviral therapy is recommended in order to prevent a breakout. Follow the directions for your particular antiviral medication.  
- SCARRING – Scarring is a rare occurrence, but it is a possibility if the skin surface is disrupted. To minimize the chances of scarring, it is IMPORTANT that you follow all post-treatment instructions provided by your healthcare staff. Compliance with the aftercare guidelines and avoiding sun exposure before and after the treatment reduces the risk of scarring.
- ALLERGIC REACTIONS – In rare cases, local allergies have been reported.
I am aware of the possible complications/risks involved with the procedure and subsequent healing period. *
