Laser hair removal might seem like an extreme choice to get rid of unwanted body or facial hair, but we’ve got several reasons you might just want to seriously consider it. At Cosmetic Enhancement Center of New England, we offer the popular treatment for both men and women, and can remove unwanted hair from any part of the body or face.

1. Actually, it’s easier.

When you think about the amount of time, money, energy and worry you’ve spent removing hair from various locations over your lifetime, laser hair removal starts to compare pretty favorably in terms of cost and effort. Daily shaving, weekly waxing, regular plucking, trimming, and bleaching? There’s no question that spending a few, quick half-hours of your time relaxing in our offices, getting hair painlessly and effective lasered away, is a better bet.

2. Long-lasting results.

Here’s where laser hair removal really shines. When you don’t want hair in a certain area of your body, well, you don’t want it there for as long as possible, right? While we don’t guarantee permanent hair removal — your body will naturally, over time, attempt to replace the hair growth — you will see a permanent reduction in the amount of hair that grows back. And, for several months to a year after laser treatment, you can be confident in a hair-free span of time.

3. No worries about growing back darker or thicker.

With shaving, waxing, and plucking, much of the time, when hair regrows after removal, it can come in darker, thicker and tougher, making hair removal that much less fun the next time. That doesn’t happen with laser hair removal, which targets the hair follicle itself, weakening and often destroying the matrix that would have regrown new hair. It’s just the opposite; hair that grows back is often lighter and finer, with fewer hairs returning each time.

4. Extremely safe and effective.

There’s nothing the least bit uncomfortable or unsafe about laser hair removal. Besides our goal of making all our clients relaxed and comfortable during procedures, the treatment itself is simple, fast and very effective. We use the G-Max laser for hair removal, which involves directing a pulsating beam of light over the areas in which you want hair removed. The laser uses the melanin in the hair shaft to target each follicle, destroying it with heat but leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. You may feel some warmth during treatment, but it’s painless and causes no downtime or healing afterward

5. You can depend on experienced, trained staff at CEC.
