WIFH Atlanta Announces Breakthrough Technique in Laser Hair Removal for Ethnic
Skin Types
Burns in ethnic skin types no longer a concern as 30,000 procedures have been
completed successfully

ATLANTA, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Jay Kulkin, MD, internationally
recognized laser expert and Fellow of the American Society for Laser Medicine
and Surgery (highest designation), has successfully developed a laser
technique making laser hair removal burns in ethnic skin types a thing of the
past. For years, individuals with ethnic skin types have suffered needlessly
with embarrassing, unwanted hair, as reports of burns (as seen on Oprah) have
caused them to avoid laser procedures. Dr. Kulkin, Founder and Medical
Director of WIFH, has developed a unique technique using the Cynosure Elite
Yag Laser and has utilized it exclusively for over 30,000 procedures on all
body types without one burn.

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure, which means it should be performed
or overseen by a medical doctor with experience in laser technologies. Dr.
Kulkin, with 23 years of laser experience, has spent the past seven years
perfecting the YAG laser technique. Specifically, his approach utilizes unique
power settings, pulse duration and frequency of laser pulses, as well as a
protective cooling agent. The result is permanent hair reduction, ingrown hair
bump reduction and pigmented blemish reduction, not to mention the restoration
of self esteem in patients with hair in undesirable locations. Additionally,
Dr. Kulkin has perfected the process so that his patients do not need to have
initial test pulses to determine the appropriate laser and setting, a
procedure that is common at many Medi-Spas that do not have his intensive
training in the field. "We see patients from over 30 different countries, some
coming after suffering burns elsewhere, and we are able to safely and
effectively treat them all," says Dr. Kulkin.

After the prescribed number of sessions, Dr. Kulkin's innovative maintenance
program to remove ingrown hairs with bumps and pigmentation in darker skin --
called Pseudofolliculitis Barbare -- has proven to maintain positive results
for years. The procedure is virtually pain-free. Patients are aware of the
laser, but over 90% of the procedures are performed using no topical
anesthesia.

There is not a "one-size-fits-all" laser, and this is especially true for
darker skin. The YAG laser is, however, the safest laser to treat ethnic skin
types. Dr. Kulkin explains, "In very simple terms, this particular laser
ignores the pigment present in the skin and only sees the pigment in the hair.
Because it doesn't respond to the pigment in the skin, our patients can rest
assured it is safe for their skin."

Dr. Kulkin's WIFH clinic boasts the most perfected and trusted techniques for
laser hair removal. While many "Medi-Spas" offer the treatment, they may not
have a doctor on site. Some Medi-Spas may have a doctor on site, but in all
likelihood that doctor does not have extensive training in laser hair removal.
However, at WIFH, each patient is under Dr. Kulkin's direct care. Dr. Kulkin
and WIFH have performed over 90,000 laser hair removal procedures making him
THE expert in Atlanta for proven results. For more information, please visit
