Okay this doesn't make sense don't they do one armpit at a time...so I think this is a scam...she trying to get money...if her first armpit was burning then why she do the other one..go figure.

she's scary looking anyway..Her pits are the least of her prob;ems

It's really sad how this poor woman was injured by an unlicensed provider and people are attacking HER. Totally ridiculous.

First of all, you're talking Miami here. Second, nobody speaks proper, if any English. Third, it could have been worse, she could have gone for a bikini laser. And I agree, looking at her, hairy arm pits should be the least of her worries. It's so funny looking at how the atty looks so concerned and she the scorned victim. Really? they really want to educate ppl how to find licensed physicians? Any one with half a brain knows how to do that. What a cheap publicity stunt. It's really comical!!

I had very successful laser hair removal on my underarms and bikini area. In NJ only a licesned doctor (not technician!) can do this and it has to be done in a doctors office. Maybe the regulations are different in Florida but she most likely didn't do her research before letting someone work on her. The discomfort you experience during the procedure should not be a burning sensation but like someone snapped a rubber band on your skin. She should have spoken up when she felt the burn. Yes I do feel bad for her but untimately the responsibility to make sure things are done correctly is hers.

My sister-in-law was very badly burned on her inner thigh and leg area from lasar hair removal by a local physician here in RI last year. She has the worst scar from the experience and all the Doctor said was "Hmmm that's weird...I just had the machine checked and re-calibrated!?? He said he was sorry but never recommended that she should immediately go to an ER but she of course did anyway due to the burning and how bad the area appeared. As to your comment "Mel" I'm sure the lady thought the doctor new what he was doing despite feeling a burning sensation. She also told him it was burning and he continued the lasar Tx.

btw I meant to say "knew" what he was doing before anyone else decides to correct me. lol

I'm sorry but this supposed attorney looks like a crook.

she got what she paid for, don't be so cheap next time... typical scam!

THERE ARE OTHER WAY'S OF REMOVING HAIR, BESIDES LASER, AND SAFER WAY'S, SOMEONE WANT TO GET RICH QUICK!!

MsM - No one speaks english properly.

OH PLEASE girlie.........................so many law suit happy fools out there..(brats!)
Buy creme hair removal, DO IT YOUR SELF and don't pay a fortune to have crap done.
I use Nair, it states, put it on 4 min or less...NOT A MINUTE LONGER or it will burn of course......................
As for arm pits, its called a shaving blade, we all buy at the dollar stores..............
If you're paying someone to rip hair out, you're an idiot.

best to get any plastic surgery or beauty treatment from someone recommended by someone you trust..., ALWAYS check credentials

The lawyer LOOKS like a crook? Most are not crooks but MANY ARE...HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
A lawyer is just making his bucks because law suite happy people are out there paying them...what else is he or she to do?
The beauty business is a scary job ....I'd never want to be in a position of someone saying "I'll sue you for this."

PS. Yes, there are hundreds of educated people doing hair removal jobs..but Nair is less than 3$ and takes less than four minutes to remove anything...

I am a licensed laser technician in New York and this isn't the first time I've seen bad burns from laser hair removal. You would be surprised how many people will just sit there and endure pain when they are told by the doctor or person in charge (who we all think knows what they are doing) that it's nothing. With the high tech and sophisticated machines available today, the only reason something will go wrong is because it is in the hands of an unqualified person. I tell everyone I consult with to never base your treatments on cost alone. Sometimes people forget that although this is a cosmetic and fairly simple procedure to do, without proper training (most get a 3 hour crash course) it can go very wrong and you can be left with permanent scars. She is a young pretty girl and if she is left with scars that lower her self esteem than she should be compensated. We live in a world where nothing short of perfection seems to be accepted by society, so I hope that these scars will in time fade.

I'm sorry but I have no symapthy for this woman.
Did anypne point out to her that hair in this area is a normal secondary sex characteristic that we have all had to deal with.
It was her ridiculous vanity that led to her "injuries"
What was she thinking?.
BUY A BIC RAZOR LIKE THE REST OF HAD TO DO.
The worst is, you might nick yourself shaving.
Moron. .

This is a nice public service announcment, but what on earth? The girl is sitting there with her hair done around her face, and then she tries to act sophisticated...

Look at her LIPS in the hospital photo. Did she have those shot up with some stuff too?

This stuff can be/is dangerous. Leave your bodies alone girls.

Laser resurfacing left me with vertical white lines on my forehead and enlarged pores all over my face. My doctor was a board-certified dermatologist. My advice is to run, not walk, from all laser treatments.
