    I just had a letter handed to me stating that pediatricians in my area are doing laser hair removal and eliminating small vascular abnormalities in patients and family members(Sciton Profile laser). So when mom comes in with little Johnny, she gets her spider veins removed. Any reason we shouldn’t do this? (Any reason except, our malpractice coverage, lawyers, and the fact is that we are DENTISTS). My staff would love me to do this and so would my patients. I suspect there are a heap of liers for hire(lawyer , that is) that want us to do this.
    Is anyone out there doing this? Inquisitive minds want to know.

    I have heard that there are some really weird dentists around here using Er:YAG lasers to remove skin lesions like scars or even tissue tags in unmentionable areas. But they are only doing it on friends, staff or families of staff and not charging. I have no idea who those dentists might be;)
