Dear list,
I am involved in setting up a new facility that will include laser hair removal treatments performed in a medium/small sized clinic room. The treatments will be performed by a lone practitioner and the door to the clinic room opens onto the waiting room. Clearly the optical hazard has to be managed appropriately, but there is also the hazard/smell associated with laser plume.
Following the recent interest in laser plumes, including some excellent work in Loughborough, I am wondering what the current advice is regarding use of plume extraction during hair removal? Using the laser and plume extraction together is possible, but difficult for a single practitioner. Requiring patients to shave the area before treatment can also reduce plume, but is that adequate?
Any thoughts/experience/evidence regarding management or risk would be very welcome.
Kind regards,
Tom
