How to shop for a cosmetic laser procedure on Long Island.

Looking for a non-surgical nip or tuck without a bite out of your wallet? Looking for a laser skin center that is not a ripoff? Report the bad guys and be sure to check reviews!

Cosmetic laser enhancement procedures are typically not covered by insurance, which means you'll be paying out of pocket and may be inclined to shop around for the best price.

But if you're looking for a bargain, look elsewhere. This is one type of procedure where you shouldn't make decisions exclusively by price.

"The laser you pay the least for may ultimately cost you the most," says Board Certified Dr. Stephen Probst, a Director at Perfect Body Laser in Bay Shore, NY.

Errors, complications, and contraindications in cosmetic laser services can be dangerous and cause irreversible damage to our most visible features.  "If you have a problem, it could be a problem that no money can fix," Probst said.  People considering a cosmetic procedure should choose a facility based on reputation, experience, and specialty, he said.  But finding the right provider can be challenging. 

Americans spend nearly $17 billion annually on voluntary cosmetic procedures.

Surgeons charged an average of $7,448 for a face-lift, $5,992 for a tummy tuck, and $5,125 for nose shaping.  And that doesn't include fees charged by the facility and other providers, such as an anesthesiologist.  Cosmetic laser services can also vary greatly in price. Perfect Body Laser pricing is very economical and is relative to the unnecessary need for surgical suites, anesthesiologists or a plastic surgeon.

It's a business that can attract some unsavory characters, since providers do not need to go through insurance companies to get paid. That can leave  clients vulnerable to under-qualified, unskilled providers like rogue nurses or laymen, said Dr. Probst.  "The consumer has to be vigilant — we've all heard the horror stories," Probst said.

For example, in a recent NY Post Article, tells the horrifying story of a Long Island mom who went to a rogue laser center for a routine treatment to remove sunspots — and she ended up with dozens of blistering burns all over her abdomen, legs and torso, she claims in a lawsuit. A location known for cheap, Groupon-like pricing had initially lured her to do business there.

Her lawsuit alleges that the treatment was “performed negligently, carelessly, recklessly, and in such a manner” that “resulted in severe and extensive burning to the skin.”

In another example, in 2015, a Philadelphia musical artist known as "Black Madam" was convicted of third-degree murder after the illegal silicone butt injections she advertised online killed a Londoner. And a few years ago, a Miami woman who had posed as a doctor was sentenced to 10 years in prison for injecting cement, Fix-a-Flat tire repair sealant, and other hazardous materials into patients seeking buttocks enhancements. 

Sometimes consumers take a cavalier approach to getting aesthetic laser services, wrongly thinking that because it is an elective laser procedure it's lower risk, but it's important to thoroughly vet any laser facility before getting cosmetic treatments done, Probst said.

"Every time a person picks up a laser it is a real procedure and there could be real risks," he said.

Here are some tips for finding the right provider:

  • Educate yourself. Laser and Aesthetic services fall under a big umbrella that includes various cosmetic procedures, such as non-surgical laser face-lifts and body contouring, as well as laser fat removal, skin tightening, and tattoo removal for mistake tattoos and even for cancer survivors. Narrow your search to facilities that specialize in cosmetic lasers and who have experience performing the procedure(s) you want.                                                                                                                         
  • Ask for a recommendation. Online reviews may not be an accurate reflection of the facilities’ work. If you don't have a friend or colleague who can recommend someone, consult another doctor you trust, such as your gynecologist, primary care doctor, or dermatologist. Many of Perfect Body Lasers Clientele have been referred by Board Certified Dermatologists and Plastic Surgeons alike.  Not only that, but a good percentage of Perfect Body's Clientele are Doctors! Perfect Body Laser has an impeccable record of reviews, safety, efficacy and holds the most (Global and National) awards out of any other laser center in New York, or nation-wide.

Don't Peek Just Yet

For example, when you’re searching for the best laser center on Long Island, it’s tempting to look at online reviews right away — or even use them as a way to find the best places to work. And yeah, while glowing reviews may encourage you to look closer at a company, bad ones can easily dissuade you from choosing that laser and aesthetic facility — even if you would otherwise be very interested in the them (and even if said reviews turn out to be off the mark).

To avoid that bias, hold off on reserving final judgement until after you snag a free consultation. Check out Award-Winning Perfect Body Laser & Aesthetics at 1150 Sunrise Highway in Bay Shore, NY 11706 and their website, descriptions, social media platforms, and current review-based research. You should be excited about what the company does at its core — not just how cool its office is or how much it is "reviewed online"

Maintain Perspective

On average, a happy customer will tell three people about his / her great experience, while an unhappy one will tell more than three times that. OK, so you’re not looking up product reviews or restaurant recommendations, your looking up reviews on cosmetic laser treatment centers on Long Island, but the same logic can be applied here. If fact, its even more important to maintain perspective because you are considering having a fat reduction laser treatment done on your body.

Now, I’m not saying to discredit all the reviews; in fact, a series of bad reviews that bring up the same general themes can certainly be a reflection of an undesirable company. But realize that every company has a few dissatisfied customers — even consistently top-rated company’s, like Google, Lowes, Home Depot or Amazon — so consider everything you’re reading with a critical eye and an open mind.

Also, put yourself in the company’s position. Don’t just take what you read at face value. We live in a very tumultuous world, where everyone has something to say, — so if you’re concerned about something, do additional research to get the facts.

 

 

Weigh its Worth

Remember that the issues that are complaint-worthy (or praise-worthy) to one client may not affect you in the same way. Instead of grouping the Perfect Body Laser Reviews you read into “good” versus “bad,” evaluate the issues individually and decide what they mean to you.

In this case, reading bad reviews or good reviews about Perfect Body Laser will get you personal information from a current or former client. And beyond research, the things you observe within the company like, are employees smiling and genuinely happy to be there? Your interaction with the staff, and your enthusiasm for the company’s core purpose should all influence your ultimate decision.

Also, while it’s easy to get caught up in online reviews, your overall opinion of the company should come from a much wider array of sources. For one, go directly to the manufacturers websites, and see if you can get more information on the provider. Perfect Body Laser has been a National Award recipient since 2007 and is a National Center of Excellence by Cynosure.

 

Are you considering getting laser treatments on Long Island?

Before doing business with just any laser provider, you should look for the following (12) important red flags to make sure they are a. professional, experienced laser skin care center:

1. Do they have any Direct Supervision from a Board Certified Physician who is also a trained and Certified Laser Expert? Or, do they disingenuously list a Doctor on their website to fool the public into thinking they actually have on-site medical supervision? 

2. Did any of their other locations suddenly "close down"?    

3. Could their current location be next to close, leaving you without the treatments you paid for?

4. Do these self professed elite laser centers have any actual Awards from global (or even national) medical manufacturers and industry leaders, or is the award simply given out by a newspaper, based on how much they advertised with that newspaper?  A great example of this puffery is the "BEST OF AWARD" given by the Long Island Press.  In our opinion, the acrylic that the award is made out of has more value that the supposed accolades it represents, a pure symbol of nonexistent success. To get this "award" all you need to do is place ads in their newspaper and take a few unvetted votes and POOF, you're the "BEST OF"!  

Perfect Body Laser and Aesthetics Awards come directly from Solta Medical and Cynosure, and can be verified by clicking here:

5. Do they have a long history in business (under the same name) or were they forced to change corporate names because of bad business practices? 

6. Do they have inexperienced staff using lasers and burning people at the owners direction?

7. Do they currently have medical malpractice claims looming over them for recklessly & negligently burning clients and scarring them for life?

8. Do they have medical malpractice insurance, or do they find it "irrelevant" because it is "not mandated by law"?

9. Are they located in an established medical space, or are they located in some local-yokel store front strip mall, next to the town bagel store? 

10. Do they offer a multitude of new technologies or do they push the only no-name lasers they can afford to offer?

11. Do they use services like Groupon or other basement bargain sites to sell cheaper, inferior treatments?

12. Do they offer a  written laser hair removal guarantee? For instance, Perfect Body Laser & Aesthetics in Bay Shore, NY offers the ONLY REAL 10-YEAR WRITTEN LASER HAIR REMOVAL GUARANTEE IN NEW YORK STATE!  

The Most Advanced Laser Technolofies in the World

We have uncovered unscrupulous businesses advertising a "lifetime" laser hair removal guarantee, right here on Long Island.  The slippery details of what we hardly consider a "guarantee" is "written" in their fine print.   

These storefront businesses operations guarantee "one" laser hair treatment PER CALENDAR YEAR! YOU HEARD THAT RIGHT, ONE LASER HAIR TREATMENT PER CALENDAR YEAR! This "guarantee" is laughable, considering the appropriate protocol for laser hair removal calls for laser treatments to be done 6-8 weeks apart!  Basically, they make you adhere to the strict protocol of doing all their treatments between 6-8 weeks apart, to make sure it works to the best of its ability. However, if it doesn't, they simply throw protocol out the window and only allow you to continue treatments once per year, thereby rendering the free treatments as useless and ineffective as the treatments they paid for!  Even worse, these same pathetic operations have reportedly (according to their horrifying Yelp profiles) been voiding their client warranties and now brazenly only offer a 30% discount rather that the "Guaranteed" free treatments they promised. 

Research will find that Perfect Body Laser and Aesthetics in Bay Shore, NY offers far more value in it's written, 10-year laser hair removal guarantee when compared to the fake "lifetime" guarantees offered by desperate laser centers, hopelessly trying to imitate and compete. Based on our Awards, years in business, number of clientel; and having millions of treatments rendered, Perfect Body Laser is the only #1 laser cosmetic center on Long Island! 

When seeking laser experts on Long Island you must do your research, or you can easily wind up wasting hundreds or thousands of dollars on ineffective and potentially dangerous laser treatments.  Bay Shore, NY Perfect Body Laser Reviews. 

Effective treatments aren't cheap and cheap treatments aren't effective.
