Better Lase Products (WARNING!)

Note: this company appears to be out of business. The information below is an archive.

The newest dubious product from the scam artist(s) who brought you Kitty’s Consumer Beware! and Guaranty Hair Removal (GHR) comes Better Lase Products, also known as A Better Way.

On 17 March 2001, these purveyors of scams and misinformation put out a press release heralding a new product called Better Lase. They claim using this topical preparation on the arms “improves the effectiveness of laser hair removal by more than 33%.”

Given that there is no published proof of this claim and given the disreputable business practices of the key players, I would urge all consumers to avoid Better Lase until there is published clinical data to back their claims.
