I, at this moment, induce the staff of True Expression Piercing Studio to perform a body piercing (and service). In consideration of doing so, I now release the body piercer, True Expression Piercing Studio, and their staff, from all manner of liabilities, claims, actions, and demands in law, or in equity, which I or my heirs might now or hereafter by reason of complying with my request to receive body piercing(s). I fully understand that the body piercer, in performing a body piercing, does not act in the capacity of a medical professional. The suggestions made by the body piercer are just suggestions. They are not to be construed as, or substituted for, advice from a medical professional. I understand that I will be pierced (or any installation of jewelry), using appropriate aseptic techniques, sterilized equipment, and jewelry. I also understand that infections/irritations can occur due to a lack of proper hygiene and/or mental sensitivities. I understand that this piercing and/or jewelry installation service may leave noticeable, permanent scarring. To ensure proper healing of my piercing, I agree to follow the aftercare procedures suggested in the verbal/written aftercare sheet provided. I am aware of the risks associated with getting a piercing. I understand that these risks, known and unknown, can lead to injury, including but not limited to infection, scarring, keloids, and allergic reactions. Having been informed of the potential risks associated with getting a piercing, I still wish to proceed with the piercing and I freely accept all risks that may arise from piercing. I acknowledge that the piercing will result in a permanent change to my appearance and that my skin may not be restored to its pre-piercing condition even after its removal. I affirm that I have received clearance from my doctor to proceed with this piercing having a medical condition. Any of the following conditions stated may interfere with the procedure or healing of the piercing and should be discussed with your doctor; medical conditions: diabetes, epilepsy, hemophilia, heart condition, taking blood thinning medication, skin condition, recipient of an organ or bone marrow transplant) I affirm that I am not under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and I am voluntarily getting a piercing without duress. I am not pregnant or nursing. (It is advisable to refrain from undergoing any body art procedures during a pregnancy, even just an ear lobe stretch. It is best to let your body focus on the important, complex, and demanding task presently at hand) I acknowledge that I have been given adequate opportunity to read and understand this document, that it was not presented to me at the last minute, and I understand that I am signing a legal contract. I understand that the artist will take pictures of my piercing, which will be sent to me via email, to monitor the healing of my piercing.
