    Publicist Grovels After Mistake

    Shoot, a publicist for R. Couri Hay's PR firm sent out an email that had mistakes in it. Probably bad ones! Now the firm has been forced to send another, more grovelling email apologizing for said mistakes. Read it below!

    Subject: To whom it may concern

    To whom it may concern:

    On June 4, 2009, Sydney Masters, an employee of R. Couri Hay
    Creative Public Relations, Inc., sent an email promoting her client Paul
    Morgan, CEO of Phoenix Rising Laser that contained factually erroneous and
    misleading statements about the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System. This email
    was sent in error and we regret that we made these statements about TRIA.
    On behalf of R. Couri Hay Creative Public Relations, Inc., Ms. Masters, Mr.
    Morgan and Phoenix Rising Laser, we apologize for any confusion about the
    safety, efficacy or features of the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System that we
    may have caused.

    The TRIA Laser Hair Removal System is the only FDA approved
    laser hair removal system for at-home use. It received FDA clearance in
    2008 and has never required a prescription for use. The TRIA Laser Hair
    Removal System uses the same semiconductor diode laser technology used by
    the professional systems and was developed by the same scientists who
    invented the technology nearly two decades ago. Clinical studies
    demonstrate that the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System delivers long-lasting
    hair reduction and prevents the hair from growing back.

    Questions about the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System should be
    directed to TRIA Beauty, Inc. at triabeauty.com or 5880 W. Las Positas
    Blvd., Suite 52, Pleasanton, CA 94588. For questions related to R. Couri Hay
    Creative Public Relations, Inc. or to Paul Morgan, please contact Mark W.
    Smith of Smith Valliere PLLC, 509 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022
    (212) 755-5200.

    Sincerely,

    R. Couri Hay
    President & CEO
    R. Couri Hay Creative Public Relations, Inc.
