Laser hair removal procedures are on the rise in the United States. They’ve become a routine cosmetic procedure and their demand is ever increasing across the country. However, it is important to note that since it is a very technical process involving heat, qualified personnel are pertinent. Despite that, one may end up with burns of varying degrees. In such a case, it is important to hire a burn injury lawyer to get you the compensation you deserve.

In cases where a client may end up with burns, it is most often a first-degree burn, which might be less severe, but it is definitely painful. Needless to say, a second-degree burn, in which the top layer of the skin is penetrated which may cause redness or blisters, is extremely painful, and lastly, a third- degree burn is the most severe kind and penetrates through all layers of the skin. Burns of any degree are painful, can scar the skin, and of course, leave mental trauma.

There are a few factors which put you at risk of burns during laser hair removal:

  1. As the demand is increasing, laser hair removal is being offered at competitive prices. This is leading to recruitment of inadequately trained professionals, which reduces the cost as well as meets the demand for more staff. As is predictable, this increases the chances of errors, hence, the number of injuries.
  2. Additionally, to meet the higher demand, a new and faster equipment called Intense Pulsed Light is being used for laser hair removal. This machine generates heats very fast and quickens the process of hair removal. At the same time, it also increases risk of burns. The professional has to very careful while using this equipment.

The above stated factors combined can very easily become a recipe for disaster by increasing the risk of burns.
