❌ HB377
Regards use of light-based medical devices for hair removal
Summary
The bill amends existing laws and establishes new regulations regarding the use of light-based medical devices for hair removal. It specifies the qualifications for laser hair removal professionals, outlines the delegation of authority from physicians to other professionals, and sets training and supervision requirements. Violations of these regulations are classified as failures to conform to standards of care.
Rationale
The bill introduces regulatory frameworks that may restrict individual rights and professional autonomy in the practice of hair removal, conflicting with the LP and LPO principles of personal liberty and free markets. Both platforms advocate for minimal government intervention in personal and economic matters, which this bill does not fully support.
Risks and Concerns
- Increased government regulation on personal services
- Potential barriers to entry for professionals in the hair removal industry
- Limits on individual choice regarding personal care
