• Strong acids

The symptoms of a chemical burn can potentially be quite severe and possibly life threatening. The damage(s) you received may include the following:

Laser Burns

During laser hair removal treatment, the laser passes through your skin to a hair follicle in order to prevent hair growth in the desired area of treatment. This procedure is able to take place due to the concentrated, pounding beam of light from the laser.

License & Training

According to Arizona law, a laser technician and the beauty salon need to have a license in order to legally operate and perform services. Along with their license, laser technicians should have quality training, especially in regards to the handling of a laser.

Laser burns are unfortunate occurrences that are generally caused by negligent or unskilled technicians.

These laser burns may have caused you:
