Complaint Against LaserAway for Unethical Business Practices and Unauthorized Charge…read more On October 25, 2025, I had a scheduled 11:00 a.m. laser hair removal appointment at LaserAway. I arrived on time, was checked in by the receptionist, and taken to a treatment room. Before the procedure began, a nurse practitioner joined by video to review my health history. When I disclosed that I have cataracts, she immediately ended the call and said I was not a candidate for treatment. I left the facility around 11:15 a.m. without receiving any service. Before booking, I had a detailed phone conversation with an intake representative who strongly encouraged me to proceed. I fully discussed my health history, yet was never told cataracts would prevent treatment. Afterward, I reviewed their policies and found no mention of cataracts as a restriction. Despite being denied service, my card was charged $249.00 later that same day (around 1:15 p.m.). I have called multiple times to request a refund but have been repeatedly transferred or ignored with no resolution. I believe this constitutes unfair and deceptive business practices. The company continues to charge customers for services they do not perform and fails to provide clear medical exclusions in advance. I respectfully request a refund of $249.00 and I think the Better Business Bureau should review LaserAway's policies and billing practices to prevent similar incidents for other consumers.

Debra is amazing! I had my first electrolysis appointment…read morealmost a year and a half ago for hairs on my chin. I have since added laser hair removal to my underarms, face and bikini. If you only read one thing about this place - hair removal is definitely worth not having to worry about it anymore and Debra is the best at what she does! The process: At your first consultation, Debra takes you through what to expect, including how many treatments, pain level and cost. She evaluated my chin (which was hairrryyy) and said due to my incessant plucking, I had to undergo electrolysis instead of laser hair removal. She gave me a timeline of treatments starting every 2 weeks and eventually downgrading to every 4-5 weeks. She said I would really start to see a lot less hair after my 10th treatment and she was totally accurate. Since then, I've also come in for laser hair removal every 6 weeks or so. All in all, it took about a year, but I no longer worry about my chin hairs and I feel so much better about my appearance The pain: Electrolysis does hurt, but Debra makes it bearable. Since you have to zap (literally) every hair, it is a much more lengthy appointment than laser. But, Debra takes care of you, and after the first couple of appointments you get used to the process Laser is much quicker, but targets more hairs at once so it hurts more in my opinion. Debra will go as fast (get it over with) or slow (take a breath) as you want. She tells you all the post-appointment creams and ointments so that you feel better after you leave her office too. Most of my appointments were during my lunch break from work since her office is downtown. At first with electrolysis there was some redness and swelling that would last up to a couple of days, but could be covered with makeup. Eventually my skin got used to it (and the appointment got less intense) so that all the redness went away within 15-30 minutes The price: So much more affordable that I thought it would be! She lets you know price at your consultation and expected length of the appointments/how frequently you would need to go. So, you can definitely calculate how much it would be in total. I would call Debra a bargain for the peace of mind she's given me about my appearance The place: She works in a dental office which at first sounds strange, but it makes sense given that the chairs move every which way and sometimes you need to be laying down in weird positions. She is always very clean and careful. If she is running late (rare), she notifies you so you aren't sitting around waiting 10/10 would recommend!

Although the procedure itself is uncomfortable, Debra's bright personality and ability to talk about literally anything makes the time fly by, even as she keeps zapping away! Her office is located downtown, it was very easy to get to after work and she made herself available to me after work hours. I would highly recommend anyone looking for laser treatments to visit Debra, not only have I for sure seen exactly the results I've wanted, but she's just so much fun to be around and work with. Highly recommended!

When I came in for a consultation, the sales person was extremely pushy and kept me for over an hour (past closing and way longer than the 20 minute scheduled appointment) asking me personal questions and showing me a slideshow that they clearly didn't understand much of themselves. They didn't have answers for my actual questions and steered the conversation away from what I wanted to discuss. They didn't understand how the payment plan worked, which was extremely concerning considering the large financial commitment this is. They told me there would be no interest on the payment plan, but when they showed me the plan it had 24% APR. I only decided to go ahead with it because it came recommended and I had already decided the max I was willing to pay before coming to the appointment (they don't share pricing unless you do this consultation). I was frustrated that person got the commission from me. They pulled the classic trick of the trade that I wouldn't be able to get the pricing unless I committed with them then. I honestly had such a bad experience with them I wanted to file a complaint. I met a couple technicians that day and they were very kind, so I don't want their bad salesperson to reflect on them and their work. Now that I have been going here for over a year, I have only had good experiences and interactions with the technicians. I just wish the sales experience would have been actually helpful and less pushy.

That also means areas which were not treated have been receiving higher levels of laser intensity than is right for an untreated or less progressed area. The areas that were treated properly are doing great so I'd say - be sure your RN is at "just right" comfort level before getting the treatments.

I booked an appointment with Alyssa Steele for severe hormonal hormonal acne. I cannot reiterate…read morewhat a bad condition I was in at the time of the appointment. Alyssa was super patient and spoke to me for a good twenty minutes before we settled on a treatment plan. I felt like it was a collaborative exercise, and a far cry from previous visits to dermatology clinics that had a very top-down approach to treatment. The assistants helping her were also absolutely fantastic and extremelt personable. Importantly, everyone was tremendously kind. The receptionists at the clinic are also lovely, and always made me feel welcome not just during the first visit but during subsequent visits. It has been roughly five months since my first visit, and my skin is so much better. The inflammation and breakouts are gone, and only hyperpigmentation remains. I highly recommend Pinski Dermatology if you have severe acne and are tired of trying everything under the sun. You will not regret it.

I don't usually write reviews, but I felt my experience deserved to be shared…read more First, I want to give credit where it's due. I struggled with severe perioral dermatitis for a long time and saw multiple providers before finding Dr. Pinski. He was the only dermatologist who was able to get it under control, and for that I will always be incredibly grateful. Unfortunately, my more recent experiences left me disappointed. After I moved, I received a text message from a debt collection agency regarding a small outstanding balance. I was never notified by the office that I had an unpaid bill before it was sent to collections. I was a patient there for many years and had built great relationships with several of the front desk staff. It was really upsetting that no one picked up the phone or sent me a notice about such a minor balance before sending it to collections. That felt like poor patient service and completely unnecessary. I also had laser treatments for rosacea there two times. The procedures were extremely painful, to the point that my face was swollen for days afterward. I was not offered any type of anesthetic--not even a topical numbing cream. As a nurse, I found that surprising and disappointing. I've had other facial procedures elsewhere that were far less invasive, and at a minimum I was offered topical anesthetic. Those laser treatments were honestly among the most painful experiences I've had, and I consider myself to have a very high pain tolerance. I'm genuinely thankful to Dr. Pinski for helping resolve my perioral dermatitis, but the way my account was handled and my experience with the laser treatments ultimately overshadowed what had otherwise been years of positive care.
