I had a consultation at Laser Shaping Centers on5-27-08 in Costa Mesa, CA at which time I was billed for $3,186.00 for treatment of three areas: outer/inner thighs and banana rolls.

Shortly there after I consulted with one of their Doctors who boldly told me that the center was not charging me enough for all three procedures and that if they continued billing in this manner they would go out of business. After examining the areas to be treated, he told me I didn't the banana roll area done. I later called Laser Shaping centers and left a message on the consultant's voice mail asking if I could have my abdomen worked on since I had already paid for three areas...She never returned my call.

I called again one week before my procedure date (June 30, 2008) on a Sunday, I intended to leave a message, but I spoke to someone who was very apologetic. She said she would have the consultant call me ASAP. No one called me back.

The Tuesday before my procedure I called again and there was a message stating that Laser Shaping Center was closed and they will not be doing any procedures.
I contacted Care Credit the agency through which this would be paid and sure enough, Laser Shaping Center/Aesthetic Network Association of Tusin had already received payment for a procedure that was never done. I can provide Name of Doctor and consultant if needed.

All I Gotta Say

AUTHOR: Lt - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, July 14, 2008

I feel bad for these clients, all who paid a lot of money to get this procedure done. But DO NOT torture the employees of the company nor spread the names of those who had NO IDEA the company was going to be closed until the day we got let go. Name people of corporate, not the doctors or consultants or other staff.

As a former employee of the company, I'm not going to apologize to anyone who was ripped off. I feel bad but s**t we were ripped off. So don't blame the people who worked hard for nothing for this stupid company. We are as upset as you are. The doctor and the consultant were just doing there job. The employees had NO IDEA that the company was closing until one day we came into work, and noticed that no patients were showing up and all of a sudden our "final checks" were handed to us and told "Sorry, we're now out of business". All of us Laid off, unemployed, with no severance pay, no PTO, no sales commission- nor were we going to get it. So there, happy now? The nurses, never even agreed with a lot of corporates scrupulous ideas and poor marketing gimmicks, even the MD's and consultants didn't always agree- but it was their job to sell. So don't blame the doctor's or sales consultants it's not like we knew this was going to happen. BLAME THE FORMER CORPORATE STAFF. The CEO, VP and PRES knew about the termination of the company for weeks prior to closing down.
