Choosing the right laser device for your clinic can feel like navigating a minefield. In this episode, we're joined by Sarah Bow—laser expert, educator, and UK consultant for Asclepion—to help cut through the confusion and marketing noise.

With over a decade of hands-on experience, Sarah breaks down the science behind photoablative, photothermal, and photoacoustic technologies, and explains why the best device isn’t always the most hyped—it’s the one that aligns with your clinic’s patient base and treatment goals.

We dive into the industry’s pivot towards skin health and regeneration, discuss the pros and cons of CO2 vs Erbium YAG, and challenge the idea that more features always mean better outcomes. Sarah shares valuable insights on how to make smarter investment decisions, avoid common pitfalls, and maximise your ROI from day one.

This episode is packed with practical advice for any practitioner looking to grow their device offering with confidence. I also reflect on my own treatment experience with Sarah - expect honest, occasionally contraversial opinions and no fluff.
