What should you recommend to a client with a lot of boils on their face?

In the case of a client with a lot of boils on their face, recommending a physician is the most appropriate course of action. Boils, which are painful, pus-filled infections of hair follicles or oil glands, can be indicative of an underlying infection or health issue that may require professional medical intervention. Estheticians are trained to provide skin care and cosmetic treatments, but they are not qualified to diagnose or treat medical conditions.

A physician can properly diagnose the cause of the boils and prescribe appropriate treatments, such as antibiotics if needed or other medical interventions. It is essential for the esthetician to prioritize the client’s health and safety, ensuring they receive the correct care from a healthcare professional. Therefore, directing the client to seek medical attention is essential to effectively address the problem and prevent further complications.
