Eyes - we do not apply laser over or near eyes.

Pregnancy - we do not laser over the womb because of the baby's eyes but can treat other areas of the body.

Thyroid gland - this is a sensitive organ which we keep away from.

Tattoos - we do not laser over a tattoo because the ink in the skin can focus the laser power to cause a burn.

Active cancer - laser boosts circulation so we do not want to accelerate the movement of cancer cells around the body. However in End-of-Life care, laser treatments can provide significant pain relief.
