It can also assist the body in converting proteins, fats and carbohydrates into energy and is necessary for healthy skin and eyes. B12 Injections are better absorbed by the body since they go directly into the blood stream; however, there are alternative methods to B12 injections which are Oral Vitamins, B12 Patch, Lozenges, Liquid drops and Nasal Spray which have been explained fully to me. B12 INJECTIONS COMMON SIDE EFFECTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO Diarrhea / Upset Stomach / Nausea Mild bruising at the site of the injection Slight Warmth at the site of the injection Mild Joint / muscle ache Mild headache B12 INJECTIONS UNCOMMON AND DANGEROUS SIDE EFFECTS INCLUDE: Rapid heartbeat Chest pain and/or chest tightening Flushed face, hives and/or skin rashes Muscle cramps and weakness Difficulty breathing, swallowing and/or shortness of breath Dizziness and/or confusion Rapid weight gain Unusual wheezing and coughingI agree to the terms and conditions of the service, including data processing and communications. I understand the policy and accept it.1. If any unforeseen condition arises during the procedure that requires additional or alternative measures beyond what was originally planned, I authorize the provider to exercise their professional judgement and perform any actions they consider necessary for my safety and well-being. 2. There is a small risk of infection of the treated skin area after the procedure, although this is not expected to occur due to the sterility of the medical devices used. I have been informed that the highest standards of hygiene are met and that sterile disposable needles, equipment and PPE are used for each individual client. 3. I understand that a minimum of 6-8 weeks resting period is needed in between treatments unless stated otherwise by my provider. 4. I also understand and accept that I may require multiple treatments to achieve desired results due to the severity of my B12 deficiency and that 100% success cannot be guaranteed from the first procedure. I understand that this is why I may need to return for further treatment. 5. The result of the procedure is determined by the following: 1) Medication, 2) Herbal Products 3) Nutritional Supplements 4) Alcohol Intake 5) Smoking 6) Post procedure after care taken. 6. I understand that I need to avoid hot baths and showers, saunas, steam rooms and public pools for 48 hours post treatment. 7. I understand and agree that all services rendered to me are charged directly to me and that I am personally responsible for the payment of $35.00 at my appointment. 8. I understand that although side effects are a relatively rare occurrence, anyone taking vitamin B12 injections should be aware of the possibility that they could occur. Uncommon side effects are much more serious than the common side effects and if I experience such side effects, I will seek medical advice from my local pharmacy, doctor or ER Department. By signing below, I acknowledge that I have read and fully understand the foregoing informed consent, and I agree to proceed with the treatment along with its associated risks. I hereby release the clinical team and overseeing physician, as well as Anastasija Medical Aesthetics, from any liability related to this procedure.Signed in OntarioDate MM slash DD slash YYYY Client Printed NameClient SignaturePractitioner Printed NamePractitioner Signature PLEASE FOLLOW THE AFTERCARE ADVICE FOR INTRAMUSCULAR VITAMIN B12 INJECTION You may experience some mild tenderness, redness and swelling around the injection site.

Cancellation policyDear Patient/Client: We strive to render excellent care to you and the rest of our patients and clients. Your care and treatment is a priority to us. We also ask that you respect your nurse injector’s time and expertise as well. In an attempt to be consistent with this, we have a Medical Appointment Cancellation Policy that allows us to schedule appointments for our patients, with respect for your time, the next patient’s time, the nurse practitioner’s time, and the nurse injector’s time. Our policy is as follows: We request that you give 24 hours’ notice in the event that you cannot make it to your scheduled appointment. If a patient misses an appointment without contacting our office, it is considered a missed or “No Show” appointment. A fee as shown below will be charged to your credit card, depending on the type of appointment missed. Additionally, if a patient is more than 15 minutes late for an appointment, it will be considered a “no show” appointment, and that appointment will be rescheduled. Also, if you miss more than 3 appointments, Anastasija Medical Aesthetics reserves the right to discharge you from the practice for failing to follow treatment recommendations. If you have any questions regarding this policy, please let our staff know, and we will be happy to clarify the policy for you. We look forward to being a part of your continued wellness.
