LASER HAIR REMOVAL LAWSUIT NETS AWARD OF $75,000

Our client was a 42 year-old female who decided to undergo laser hair removal treatments.  These procedures can be very dangerous and produce burns on patients if they are not performed by a doctor who has the proper credentials.  The owner of this particular facility did not even know if she was licensed to do business in New York.  There were no written warnings detailing the possibility of laser burns.  Our client received her treatment from a technician, not a doctor as required.  The technician had previously burned someone during one of these procedures.  The technician failed to perform any spot tests on our client and even used the incorrect machine to complete the procedure. 

The technician then proceeded to burn our client in over twenty different spots on both her face and neck.  Our client not only had second degree burns, but also had open blisters and swelling on her face and neck. Afterwards, our client had visible scarring.  Our firm worked diligently on our client’s behalf to obtain a settlement for her injuries due to the negligence of the facility and the technician.  Our attorney Ronald Ingber was able to obtain a settlement for our client for $75,000.
