advisors or employees and the Registrant or outstanding

and is not subject to any provision of ERISA.
(4) The address and telephone number that may be used
to obtain additional information about the plan being
registered in this Form S-8 is (561) 750-2300. Since
the exclusive purpose of this plan is to provide

capital stock) to the officers, consultants and

plan, nor is there any investment of any funds in the
plan.
(b) (1) The title and total amount of securities to be

billed to the Registrant for services rendered by the
officers, consultants and advisors who are eligible to
participate as described in paragraph (c) above for the
bona fide services rendered by such officers, business
consultants and advisors. The securities are not to be
purchased in the open market, but instead, are to be

incorporated into this prospectus by reference but not delivered
herewith shall be provided, without charge, to each person,

upon written or oral request of such person made to Physicians

RISK FACTORS
The shares of common stock of Physicians Laser Services, Inc.
referred to in this prospectus are securities that, but for the
Form S-8 and this reoffer prospectus, would be "restricted
securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("the 1933
Act"). The securities referred to in this reoffer prospectus are
registered with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission under Form S-8 for reoffer and resale without
limitation, on a continuous and delayed basis, pursuant to Rule 415
of the Rules and Regulations under the 1933 Act and general
instruction C of Form S-8. Investment in these securities
is speculative or one of high risk due to, among other factors, the
absence of an operating history of Physicians Laser Services, Inc.
(the "Registrant") and the absence of profitable operations in its
1995 fiscal year and first fiscal quarter of 1996.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The shares of common stock of Physicians Laser Services, Inc.
referred to in this prospectus are reoffers and resales of
restricted securities registered with the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission under Form S-8 dated even date with this
Prospectus. Accordingly, the reoffers and/or resales are not
capital raising transactions, and there are no proceeds or net
proceeds to Physicians Laser Services, Inc. from the sale of these
securities.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The reoffers and resales of restricted shares of common stock
of Physicians Laser Services, Inc. referred to in this Prospectus
are made at the current market price for such stock, as shown on
the NASD bulletin board exchange at the time of sale of these
securities.
DILUTION
There is a substantial disparity between the open market
price of the common equity securities referred to in this
Prospectus that are being registered with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission under Form S-8 for reoffer and
resale on a continuous and delayed basis and the effective cash
cost to officers, directors, consultants and advisors that are
eligible to participate in this reoffer and resale pursuant to the
Form S-8 registration. For comparison purposes, the effective cash
cost to officers, directors, consultants and advisors for the
securities referred to in this Prospectus is $1.00 per share, while
the open market price for such shares upon reoffer and resale at
the time of filing its Form S-8 is approximately $2.63 per share.
The net tangible book value per share before and after
distribution of the shares is negative 1.72 cents per share and
negative 1.53 cents per share, respectively, based on the
Registrant's most recent Form 10-QSB.
Since the securities referred to in this prospectus are to be
issued as compensation for bona fide services rendered to the
Registrant, and are not issued as a capital raising transaction,
there are no cash payments made by purchasers of the
securities being registered under the Form S-8 to which this
reoffer prospectus relates and the amount of the increase in the
net tangible book value per share attributable to the securities
being so registered for reoffer and resale on a continuous
and delayed basis as described in this Prospectus is zero.
The amount of the immediate dilution from the public offering
price which will be absorbed by the purchasers of the securities
described in this Prospectus is approximately 1/5 of one cent,
based on the Registrant's most receint Form 10-QSB.
SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

with Physicians Laser Services, Inc. of the registered owners of
the securities referred to in this Prospectus, and the amount of

of both the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and, pursuant to their
respective employment contracts, each has been indemnified by the

of their duties as officers and directors of the registrant.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons
controlling the Registrant pursuant the provisions of Item 510 of
Regulation S-K, the Registrant has been informed that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is therefore unenforceable.
