The
Low-Down on the New Laser Laws
The Washington State Department
of Health recently adopted new rules governing the use of Laser, Light,
Radio-Frequency and Plasma (LLRP) devices. These new rules apply to very
popular and widely used treatments such as Fotofacial,
Thermage
and Laser
Hair Removal.
A
main purpose behind the Department of Health's rule was to ensure that
operators of LLRP devices are not only qualified, but that proper
medical supervision was present and available in settings where these
medical devices are being used.
Our
highly trained staff at Naficy Rejuvenation Center has performed thousands
of laser procedures. Furthermore, all treatments are supervised by Dr.
Naficy, whose specialization makes him one of the most well-trained
and experienced cosmetic surgeons in the country.
Please
remember - lasers are medical devices that can cause permanent scars when
improperly used. Choose your treatment provider carefully - and make sure
they have the training, expertise and credentials to provide you with the
safest and most effective results.
If
you have questions about the new Department of Health rules, please call
or email our office for further information.
