Since 1988, Cosmetic Enhancement Center of New England has been helping patients feel more confident in their own skin. What started as a laser tattoo removal facility has grown into a full-service medical aesthetics practice with locations in Portland, Falmouth, and Waterville, Maine, offering injectables, laser treatments, body contouring, medical-grade skincare, medical weight loss, wellness treatments, and beyond.
Nearly four decades later, our mission hasn’t changed: helping you look and feel like the best version of yourself.
Led by Dr. Maria Atkins and an Experienced Aesthetic Team
Our practice is led by Dr. Maria Atkins and supported by a team of physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurse injectors, aestheticians, and clinical professionals who bring more than 100 years of combined experience in medical aesthetics. That collective expertise allows us to create personalized treatment plans tailored to your goals, your skin, and your timeline, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Why Summer Is the Perfect Time for a Confidence Refresh
Tank tops and swimsuits have a way of making us think differently about our skin. The good news: you don’t need to wait until fall to see results. Several of our most popular treatments are ideal for summer because they involve little to no downtime and don’t require avoiding the sun the way laser treatments do.
Here are the best ways to refresh your confidence this summer:
1. Injectables
Botox and dermal fillers, like Juvederm and RHA Collection, remain one of the most effective ways to soften fine lines, restore volume, and enhance your natural features. Because injectables don’t increase photosensitivity the way lasers can, they’re a smart choice for sunny months when you’re spending more time outdoors.
2. Ultrasound Skin Tightening: Sofwave and Ultherapy
If you’re looking for firmer, more lifted skin without surgery, skin tightening treatments like Sofwave and Ultherapy use focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep beneath the skin’s surface. Both are FDA-cleared, require no needles, and are safe for use during summer since they don’t increase sun sensitivity and have no downtime. Results build gradually over the following months as your body produces new collagen.
3. DiamondGlow Facials
DiamondGlow is one of our go-to treatments for refreshing congested summer skin. This microdermabrasion-based facial simultaneously exfoliates, extracts impurities, and infuses your skin with condition-specific serums, leaving you with an immediate glow and no downtime. It’s gentle enough to enjoy year-round, making it a great addition to a regular skincare routine.
4. Body Contouring with Emsculpt Neo
For patients working toward their summer body goals, Emsculpt Neo is one of the most advanced non-invasive body contouring treatments available. It combines radiofrequency with high-intensity electromagnetic energy to simultaneously reduce fat, build muscle in areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks, and tighten skin. Most patients complete a series of quick sessions with no downtime, making it easy to fit into a summer schedule. Results continue to improve over the weeks following treatment as muscle tissue develops.
5. Vaginal Rejuvenation with Emsella
Emsella is a non-invasive treatment designed to strengthen the pelvic floor using focused electromagnetic energy, often described as the equivalent of thousands of Kegel exercises in a single session. Many patients turn to Emsella to address stress urinary incontinence, weakened pelvic floor muscles, and overall pelvic wellness, particularly after childbirth or as part of the natural aging process. Treatment is fully clothed, requires no downtime, and is completed in short sessions, making it a discreet and convenient option any time of year.
