American Laser Center No results whatsoever - instead they burned me, left permanent scars & pigmentation damage! Hurst, Texas

Hello,

I am sorry to hear about your ordeal. There are remedies that you should consider. Lasers are governed by the FDA under 21 CFR 1040.10-11. Do you know what equipment was used? If you do, you can file an FDA form 3500A for mandatory reporting. You can report the practitioner, the facility, and the equipment used. In reality, because this is mandatory reporting, the center should report it themselves to the FDA, however, this never or rarely happens.

Furthermore, you should consider hiring a lawyer and filing a malpractice lawsuit. There are clear guidelines for each FDA cleared equipment. If the equipment is not FDA cleared, better for your lawsuit.

Laser Hair Removal is an area where the practitioners don't consider themselves medical professionals, and they don't consider their customers patients. Remember- you are a patient, and the equipment used is a medical device. You can file a complaint with your state attorney general, and you can also go the your state department of health. You can have these people investigated for violations, and you are likely to help prevent this from occurring in the future.
