Laser Hair Removal Medical History Form

Laser is safe in the right hands, and a thorough medical history is a big part of what makes it so. This form screens for the things that matter before a single pulse: conditions like diabetes, epilepsy, photosensitive disorders, a history of skin cancer or keloid scarring, pregnancy, a pacemaker, cold sores, or hormonal conditions such as PCOS that affect hair growth. Two behaviour questions sit alongside the medical ones because they’re just as important for laser. Recent sun exposure, a sunbed or fake tan makes treating darker-looking skin riskier, and waxing, plucking or threading in the past few weeks removes the hair root the laser needs to target. Asking about both, plus a free-text field for photosensitising medications like certain antibiotics, retinoids and even St John’s Wort, means you catch the common reasons to postpone before the client arrives. Have every client complete it before their course and refresh it over time. It’s free, brand-styled, and turns a safety-critical screen into a clear, dated record on the client’s file.
