Laser Hair Removal Gone Bad

By , About.com GuideSeptember 10, 2008

Follow me on:

As with a lot of laser hair removal centers, you pay up front for the series of treatments. Erika Malast did just that, paying over $2,400 at Speed of Light, in Largo Florida. While laser hair removal doesn’t claim to rid all hair forever, there should be a large reduction in hair. After eight months of treatments, Erika claims her knees and legs still had light blond hair.

The clinic closed back in April of 2007 and never re-opened. So Malast couldn’t take advantage of free touch-ups for two years that she saw in the company’s advertisement. The owner claims all treatments were refunded, and Erika says she hasn’t received a dime.

Beware of when you had over a big chunk of change up front to a spa or laser hair removal center. Know exactly what you are signing up for, and read the fine print. Read the full laser hair removal story from, Tampa Bay’s 10 News.

It is so true that you have to be careful about what laser clinic you choose. Even if the laser hair removal clinic remains in business, you might find that it only has one kind of laser and that isn’t the best one for hair removal for you. So it’s important to understand the different kinds of lasers that are used in hair removal and which are the best ones for your skin. Sometimes it is worth travelling to get to the best clinic.

Hello, there is a product claiming to be an alternative to laser hair removal called puff it powder. Some mates said they gr8, perhaps it is worth trying for blondes who aren’t the best candidate of laser like us

It is really important to know the perfect hair removal procedure that would be the best for you. It is important to know first the best procedures that really suits on your skin, in order to avoid skin allergies. Knowing the safest procedure would be the best thing to do before getting into the treatment.
