We are a Fully Licensed Laser Clinic (QRH)
What Does Laser Licensed Mean?
By obtaining a Queensland Radiation Health License for class 4 lasers, our clinic demonstrates that it has undergone the necessary training, has implemented appropriate safety measures, and is capable of safely operating a class 4 laser. This license ensures that our clinic complies with the regulatory standards and provides a level of assurance to clients that our clinic follows the required safety protocols when using lasers for cosmetic tattoo removal.
Obtaining a Queensland Radiation Health License usually requires in-depth theory and over 100 hours of training supervised by an unrestricted license holder. Obtaining this license can take years, involving the diligent maintenance of a log book and documenting numerous case studies throughout this extended duration.
Why is a Laser license important?
The tattoo removal industry is largely unregulated nationwide, however even more so in South Australia. Currently, there are no official qualifications mandated to provide such services, allowing anyone in South Australia to easily purchase a laser machine and establish a business.
However, in Queensland, there are stricter legal requirements in place for the operation of class 4 lasers, making it one of the few states with more stringent compliance measures.
Although regulations may be absent in South Australia, OHMYBROW have chosen to operate their business in line with Queensland who offer a hgher governing standard.
Why we choose TGA approved lasers?
Having a TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) approved laser machine is important for several reasons:
Safety: TGA approval ensures that the laser machine meets certain safety standards and has undergone rigorous testing. Laser machines can be potentially hazardous if not used correctly or if they don't meet specific safety requirements. TGA approval indicates that the machine has been evaluated for its safety features and is considered safe for use.
Efficacy: TGA approval also takes into account the efficacy of the laser machine. It ensures that the machine performs as intended and provides the desired therapeutic or cosmetic results. By using a TGA-approved laser machine, you can have confidence in its effectiveness and know that it has undergone scrutiny to demonstrate its ability to deliver the desired outcomes.
Compliance with Regulations: In many countries, including Australia where the TGA operates, medical devices must comply with regulatory requirements to be legally marketed and used. TGA approval signifies that the laser machine meets the necessary regulatory standards and requirements, ensuring compliance with the applicable laws and regulations.
Quality Assurance: TGA approval indicates that the laser machine has met specific quality standards and manufacturing requirements. This can include factors such as the quality of materials used, manufacturing processes, and adherence to quality management systems. By using a TGA-approved laser machine, you can have confidence in its reliability and longevity.
Insurance Coverage: Some insurance providers may require the use of TGA-approved devices for coverage purposes. If you are a healthcare professional or business offering laser treatments, having a TGA-approved laser machine may be necessary to ensure that your practice is eligible for insurance coverage.
Overall, having a TGA-approved laser machine provides assurance of safety, efficacy, regulatory compliance, and quality. It helps protect both practitioners and patients, ensuring that treatments are carried out with reliable and approved equipment.
