My client's skin barrier was wrecked and I didn't see it until she mentioned her new 'routine'
She came in for a chemical peel consultation and casually said she'd been using a physical scrub and a strong retinol every night for two weeks. I realized I'd been so focused on selling the service, I skipped the full intake chat. Do you always do a full product check before any treatment, or is that overkill?
Honestly the real risk is legal, not just overkill. If you treat damaged skin without checking, that's a liability waiting to happen. Skipping the chat to make a sale could cost you way more later.
