Katrina's Beauty Works Ipswich IPL VPL burns

Last week ( Thursday 3rd February) I went to Katrina’s Beauty Works in Riverlink Ipswich.
I have had IPL before and it was fine.
This time however the girl doing the treatment looked no older than 18, and she did not even have a pair of goggles for herself.

She did colour in the tattoo with a white eyeliner, but she then also proceeded to laser it, even though I had told her I was going to get electrolysis on there.
It hurt like hell and I made her stop.



She lowered the level and kept going.
But unfortunately the damage was already done.
The next day it was still tender.
The two days after the blisters appeared and the skin was peeling off.
It is now a week later and The sores are still extremely tender and still bleeding at times, I change the dressing daily and it has puss and even blood and ink from the tattoo on it.
I finally got a call back from the manager at head office today, after sending an email about the problems, and they want me to go see the store and show the manager there.
She told me it is acceptable for the girl to not have goggles and just keep her eyes closed.
I do not think she believed me that the burns are so bad.
