Why Purchase this CD Tool?
Laser and Intense Light (LIL) devices and treatments are subject to numerous state regulations which are changing constantly, frustrating and confusing owners and manufacturers of such devices. Many states have increased the level of control and scrutiny of health and safety issues related to the use of lasers and intense pulsed light devices for cosmetic treatments. New statutes and regulations have been proposed, and task forces have been established to study these issues. Basic laser safety fundamentals for your facility should be based on Federal Laser Safety Guidelines as well as specific State Laser Regulations, occasionally requiring registration and fees, as well as a delegation of operational authority and documentation of the resident Laser Safety Officer responsible for each facility associated with the Class 3b and Class 4 cosmetic lasers.
In addition to this evolving situation, state medical boards, professional healthcare boards, and non professional health care boards are involved in offering rules, regulations, position statements, and other mandatory or pre emptive suggestions to prepare the aesthetic laser practitioner for the trends of regulations to come. The task of evaluating the large amounts of information and the development of a program right for your customers can be daunting or simply be considered an unknown until a complaint is lodged or an unexpected audit is scheduled. Most often, the customer depends on you to inform them of any such expectations.

Testimonials Regarding the Office Laser Safety CD Program
"I wanted to thank you for your assistance in reviewing the information pertaining to ANSI guidelines for class IV laser ownership and operations. Your tutorial was comprehensive and helpful. I also want to thank you for the supplemental data you have compiled regarding some of the legal issues that physicians must consider when operating or working in medical spas. As you know, the regulations pertaining to the use of lasers for medical procedures and particularly in the field of esthetic medicine are often nebulous and leave much room for misinterpretation. Opening a new medical spa in California, I have found it extremely difficult to find good and valid information. The supportive documents that you have provided are some of the most complete that I've seen in over a year's worth of research on the matter. Having worked with the Medical Board of California in reviewing cases for physician's whose licenses have come under review or suspension, I appreciate how important it is to understand not only the exact letter of the law, but the direction in which legislation is moving and forecasting changes that may greatly effect the way we practice. Your documents provide a very concise and objective synopsis of the issues here in California but they also depict the trends for which we all must prepare in operating a safe and successful medical spa. I just wanted to thank you for what I know from personal experience was a significant amount of work. I only wish that I would have had access to the CD sooner so that I could have saved the substantial legal fees for similar research that yielded less information than what you have provided. Thank you. You are running a top notch program."

"The course and CD program taught by Leslie Pollard was very beneficial. Leslie did an awesome job teaching the things that I really needed to know. The best thing was that she was able to provide me with guidelines, contacts and information specific for my state. In my state I could not have proceeded without her help"
