You can view Ohio’s laser hair removal rules by clicking below and going to page 8-9:
I could pursue certification for using laser since I’m already licensed in two out of four classes of people that can operate a laser in Ohio. My electrologist license is under the tiltle C.T. meaning, Cosmetic Therapist. So, if I take a 50 hour course, I can operate a laser under the wing of a physician. I also have an active registered nurse license and R.N.'s are another group that can operate a laser under a physicians wing. The other two catogories are LPN (licensed practical nurse) which I use to be years ago and physicians assistant. They can also operate a light based apparatus, with a 50 hour course under their belt.
I’m glad it has been defined who can operate a laser in the state of Ohio as there was much confusion in the beginning when laser was catching fire.
