Which item is included in a typical esthetics client intake form?

• A. Adoption history
• B. Personal contact information, medical history, medications, allergies, and consent to treatment
• C. Vehicle information
• D. Social media handles

Answer: (B)

In esthetics, the intake form is the tool that gathers information essential for safety, records, and informed consent. The item that belongs on a typical client intake form is personal contact information combined with medical history, medications, allergies, and consent to treatment. This collection allows the practitioner to screen for health conditions or medications that could affect a procedure, identify potential allergies, contact the client in emergencies, and obtain legally valid consent before proceeding with any treatment.

Adoption history, vehicle information, and social media handles don’t impact safety, contraindications, or consent, and they raise privacy considerations, so they aren’t part of the standard intake.
