4Safety Verification for Makati Laser
5-point verification for any Makati laser clinic: (1) Specific laser brand name (Candela, Alma Soprano, Lumenis, Syneron, Cutera — named international brand required). (2) Physician PRC license verifiable at prc.gov.ph. (3) Patch test offered before first full session. (4) Fitzpatrick skin type assessment at consultation. (5) Confirmed minimum 6-week intervals between sessions — shorter intervals indicate incorrect protocol. All five are standard at Makati's qualified clinics. Any clinic that deflects on any of these five points should not be booked.
