Laser Hair Removal Didn't Work - what are my rights?

 Most of the "information" on that page is utter tosh. There is no need to register with CQC, the Registered Homes Act no longer exists and would not be relevant anyway. The only requirement for a minimum qualification I can find is a voluntary body that has no regulatory power. I wouldn't trust the rest of it without a reference to the relevant law.0

 "Overview
 Practitioners who use Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), class 3B, or class 4 lasers in England may have to register with the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
 Registered medical practitioners who use IPL or lasers to treat disease, disorder, or injury have to register with the CQC.
 Practitioners who use IPL or lasers for exclusively cosmetic purposes don’t have to register with the CQC, even if they are registered medical practitioners.
 Some local councils in England also require all practitioners who use IPL and lasers to register with them. Check with your local council to find out if you need to register."
 But in reality it seems the op went against the advice of several other beauticians so has to take some responsibility herself.0
