Dermacare Laser & Skin Care Clinics is First Medical Franchiser to Join Laser Institute of America

Dermacare Laser & Skin Care Clinics today announced that it has joined the Laser Institute of America (LIA), the professional society dedicated to fostering lasers, laser applications and laser safety worldwide, to enhance industry safety.

Our membership with the LIA will enable us to promote the safe use of lasers, which is perfectly aligned with our core principles of safety, efficacy and service. Dermacare has long promoted strict regulation of laser procedures in the medspa industry, explains Carl Mudd, Dermacare founder and CEO. This membership will also allow our physicians to take advantage of the additional training and networking opportunities, plus laser safety materials the LIA regularly produces.

LIA, based in Orlando, Fla., comprises laser researchers, manufacturers, integrators, and end-users working together to increase the use and safe application of laser technologies. LIA individual and corporate members receive significant discounts on all LIA materials, training courses, and conferences.

About the LIA
The Laser Institute of America was started in 1968 with the sole intention of turning the potential of a powerful new technology into an actual, viable industry. The LIA was forged from the heart of the profession - a network of developers and engineers - people who were actually using lasers. These were the first "members" of the LIA, the people who decided that sharing new ideas about lasers is just as important as developing them. The belief, as it remains today, is to promote laser applications and their safe use through education, training, and symposium.
