    I signed a contract with ideal image and was rushed into it with *******, because had eye appointment same day so she readily went through everything and had me sign the contract to come back after my eye appointment for my first laser appointment. I didnt have success with my first laser treatment but showed up on 05/24/2023 for my second laser appointment and it was pointed out by the medical provider that i wasn't a candidate for laser treatment currently due to medicine (accutane) I was on previously (finished December 2022) and never shouldve been able to get my first appointment, and this one would have to be post poned. I then informed them the medicine was restarting the following week (05/30/2023)and they said once off medicine have to wait at least 6 months to receive services. I informed them I was on the medicine last round for a year and so it would be at least 18 months before could even restart services and they said would postpone contract. I wanted to pay for just the one treatment I got per the terms and conditions bullet number 4 (attached) I wasn't medically allowed this and it says would be refunded and they will not refund me. I now have been charged for 5 laser treatments, only got one and won't be able to even consider being a candidate again for 18 months possibly and they won't refund me.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of my decision appear below.

    The business hours with the business and when they are available for phone calls and when I am available with my work never seem to correspond. I did bring up to ******* a few weeks after the May 24,2023 appointment that was cancelled due to my medication about a refund and she said no refund would be given, my treatments could be postponed for 18 months and then see if I am eligible for laser hair treatment after my treatment was done or I could try another service they have for the remaining amount(I didn't want any of the the remaining services offered.).

    Regards,

    *****************************
