    Informed Consent

    Informed Consent for Botulinum Toxin Type A

    Botulinum Toxin Type A is listed on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) for cosmetic use in treating frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. Botulinum toxin Type A can also be used for facial symmetry and cosmetic improvement. The purpose of Botulinum toxin type A treatment is to weaken the treated muscle(s) and help prevent the formation of expression lines. The procedure involves the injection of Botulinum toxin type A, by injection, into the muscle located at the desired treatment area. When Botulinum Toxin Type A is injected into a muscle, it causes weakness in that muscle and prevents the muscles that is treated to reduce function, allowing the expression lines to dissipate or reduce. The dosage of Botulinum Toxin Type A that is injected may vary from patient to patient and will depend on the patient’s presentation, history, and desired outcome. The procedure is completed by a registered nurse, following a consultation with a doctor or Nurse Practitioner. The procedure can take up to 14 days to be effective, and typically lasts between 2 to 4 months depending on how a patient’s body responds to the procedure. The muscles injected will not function whilst the injection is effective, and this effect may begin to reverse itself after a period of 3-4 months. Once the effectiveness has worn off, patients may wish to consult at Juvae for re-treatment. The most common side effects associated with the use of Botulinum Toxin type A include, but are not limited to: Swelling, Bruising, Infection, Temporary eyelid/eyebrow drooping, Muscle atrophy, Headache. Other side effects may include Dry Mouth, Tinnitus, Erythema multiforme, Anorexia, Vision blurred, Visual disturbance, Hypoacusis, Dysarthria, Paresthesia, Pyrexia, Malaise, Myalgia, Myasthenia gravis, Radiculopathy, Syncope, Hypoesthesia, Facial paresis, Facial palsy, Strabismus, Vertigo, Peripheral Neuropathy, Pruritus, Diarrhea, Dermatitis psoriasiform, Alopecia including madarosis, Abdominal pain, Nausea and/or vomiting, and Brachial plexopathy.

    Generalised side effects may occur such as rash, itchiness, allergic reactions, flu like symptoms, hypertrophic scars/keloids and tightness. Long term use of Botulinum Toxin can divert muscle atrophy. I acknowledge and accept that Botulinum Toxin Type A treatment applied to my forehead area may only last between 6 to 8 weeks and once the effectiveness has worn off, I may be able to undergo further treatment.

    Long term side effects: - Some patients build up antibodies to anti-wrinkle treatment(s). In the event this occurs, other treatment options may be offered to me at an additional charge. If I do not respond to further treatment, then I will be precluded from undergoing anti-wrinkle treatment for 18 months and I will not receive a refund. In the event that your body builds up antibodies to Botulinum Toxin Type A, you may not be able to use this medication for therapeutic use in the future.

    Anti-wrinkle Botulinum Toxin Treatment has been used in patients for over 20 years worldwide.

    Informed Consent for Hyaluronic Acid

    Hyaluronic Acid is a natural substance (a complex sugar) that stabilises the skin structure, attracts and binds water, and contributes to the elastic properties of the skin that allow it to remain tight. Injections of Hyaluronic Acid into the skin are thought to replenish its natural support structures damaged by ageing, filling in facial wrinkles and hollows, and for lip augmentation. Patients initially may observe swelling in the treatment area. It may take up to three days to see any results. The effect of Hyaluronic Acid generally lasts for 4 months or longer and will require follow-up treatments to maintain results. Patients should not apply make-up for 24 hours after the injection, and should avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, UV light, freezing temperatures or using saunas or Turkish baths for two weeks after the injection. Patients are recommended not to wear any restrictive headwear including Goggles, and large sunglasses. It is recommended that patients avoid facedown massages or facial treatment(s) that involve pressure. Patients should not undergo any laser treatment(s) to the area for one month post injection. Side effects associated with the use of Hyaluronic Acid treatment may be immediate or up to 10 years post treatment include, but are not limited to: Redness, Bruising, Swelling, Infection, Itching Sensation (in treated area), Tightness, Nerve Damage, Bumps, Lumps, Pimples, Tenderness, Cold sore outbreak, Pressure, Tissue Scarring, Pain, Immune response Very rare cases of side effects associated with Hyaluronic Acid include: Irreversible discoloration, Abscess (hard and swollen sore that may contain pus), Stroke, Exacerbate the asymmetry of the treated area, Vascular occlusion/Necrosis, Granuloma (small accumulation of tissue), Blindness, Hypertrophic scars/keloids In the event you are not located in a major city or near a specialised Eye Hospital, reversal of side effects may not be possible. Although the risk of developing a serious complication is small, should a complication occur, the Registered Health Practitioner involved in your treatment will use their best medical judgement to do whatever is necessary to treat the problem. In the event that any Hyaluronic Acid is over filled or attracts excess fluid in the area treated, it may need to be dissolved. If you experience any discomfort/discoloration as a result of treatment, you should immediately notify the Registered Health Practitioner involved in your treatment. In the event of an adverse reaction, the administration of the medication Hyaluronidase or surgery may be required. If the administration of the medication Hyaluronidase or surgery is required, this will be at the expense of the patient. In the event any complications occur, several appointments at different clinic locations may be required to treat the area affected.

    I agree and understand that Hyaluronic Acid injected to any treatment area: (i) will only give minor improvement to volume loss, (ii) will in no way treat or improve pigmentation or dark circle under the eyes, (iii) may cause migration, (iv) may require several treatments to achieve the desired outcome.

    Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler Treatment has been used in patients for over 15 years.

    In the event Hyaluronic Acid complication occurs an agent known as Hyaluronidase may be used to dissolve the filler. Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid and has been used in medical applications for over 60 years. For the correction of complication and unsatisfactory results after filler injections. Although good results are expected, the behavior of Hyaluronidase is unpredictable and therefore it is difficult to proceed with accuracy each time and every time. In some circumstances hyaluronidase can break down areas of natural Hyaluronic acid, as well as areas of Hyaluronic acid added through injection that you do not want removed. Volume loss, crepey skin or skin textural changes may occur. In the event of a poor response from the enzyme, the face may appear uneven as some areas may be greater affected by the enzyme than others. It is because of this that there is no guarantee on the results that can be obtained through treatment. As with any treatment, dissatisfaction remains a real risk. There is no guarantee that any form of resolution will be reached by using hyaluronidase. It is possible that these lumps, nodules, and other adverse effects are because of other factors including but not limited to; fibrous tissue, water retention, infection and cysts, instead of the product itself. I understand that the risks and side effects of Hyaluronidase include pain, itching or redness where the injection is given. Swelling in the hands, feet or other body areas may also occur, as well as a breakdown of the patient’s own Hyaluronic Acid and any Hyaluronic Acid in the area/s treated could need further dermal filler to revolumise the area. Rare side effects include cough, difficulty swallowing, hypersensitivity reaction, urticaria, angioedema, dizziness, fast heartbeat, hives or welts, skin rash or anaphylactic reaction. I authorise the registered nurse and Registered Health Practitioner involved in my treatment to administer Hyaluronidase in the event I have an adverse reaction or possible side effect to the injection of Hyaluronic Acid. I further acknowledge and accept that I have read and understood the above. In the event of adverse reaction to dermal filler it may be a requirement to have the product surgically removed at the patient’s expense.

    Informed Consent for Anaesthetic

    I have read the information regarding anaesthetic and understand the treatment risk and side effects.

    1. Dizziness, nausea, vomiting, accelerated heart rate, slow heart rate, or various types of allergic reactions. any or all of these may require additional medical management or hospitalization.

    2. Restricted mouth opening during recovery, sometimes related to muscle soreness at the site of the injection requiring physical therapy.

    3. Prolonged numbness, that in some patients may result in injury from biting or chewing an area such as (lip, cheek, or tongue that has received the local anaesthesia.

    4. Injury to nerves that can result in pain, numbness, tingling, or other sensory disturbances to the chin, lip cheek, gums or tongue. This may persist for several weeks, months, or rarely be permanent.

    Informed Consent for Rejuran
