TV Station Investigates St. Paul Minneapolis Laser Hair Removal Clinics

PR Log (Press Release) – Aug 10, 2009 – Recently a Minnesota TV station news team (the WCCO’s iTeam) did a investigative news story on laser hair removal clinics in Minnesota. According to the investigation not all clinics operating in the state are overseen by a registered technician or physician. Some of these clinics even have laser hair removal "technicians" working who have had as little as week’s training.

The reason for this is that in the state of Minnesota anyone can operate a hair removal laser device. In other States there are regulations that laser hair removal devices be purchased by a physician and used by a trained specialist. The result of these poorly trained technicians is that many people have problems with their hair removal procedures.

WCCO’s iTeam recommends that when you look for a laser hair removal clinic in Minneapolis St. Paul or anywhere else in the state of Minnesota, you should pick a clinic with many years experience. You also want to check that the clinic is supervised by a medical doctor and has authorized technicians working in it. WCCO’s iTeam recommended Christina Clinic as one such reputable clinic and interviewed the owner and founder of Christina Clinic, Chris Cairl to ask her for tips on picking a safe and reputable laser hair removal clinic.

Chris Cairl was picked by WCCO’s iTeam because she has been specializing in hair removal in Minnesota for over 28 years. Her clinic has helped thousands of people become hair free and as it's motto says "is dedicated to higher standards of hair removal". Christina Clinic operates under medical supervision and takes great care of their patients. One example of the "higher standard" is requiring all new patients to first come in for a consultation before any procedure is done. This ensures patients get the most effective and safest laser treatment for them depending on such factors as skin type and color etc...

Laser hair removal has seen a sharp rise in popularity in recent years because of how effectively it eliminates facial and body hair. It is now the third most popular non surgical cosmetic procedure. The reason for it's popularity is that alternative processes such as shaving, threading, waxing and plucking only provide a temporary form of hair removal. However, with the proper use of laser hair removal, there is no need for people to use these temporary techniques. While the investment in laser hair removal is higher, the fact that a person can be hair free for good is worth the investment for many people.
