Home // Medical Spa Services // Hair Removal // Comet

At New Image Cosmetic Surgery and Medical Spa in San Diego, we now use the Comet laser hair removal procedure, which is the fastest, safest, and most effective hair removal device ever developed. The new patented technology of the Comet efficiently removes hair of any color on any skin type. Throw away your razors, tweezers and cancel your waxing appointment today and schedule your laser hair removal consultation with Dr. Schafer by calling his San Diego office at this toll free number 800-810-5449 or you can schedule an appointment online.

The Comet uses both radio frequency and light to isolate the treatment area and leave the surrounding skin free from potentially harmful side effects. Using gentle pulses of two targeted energies means better results with lower overall energy output—assuring the highest level of safety and comfort.

The Comet Removes All Hair on All Skin Types

The Comet is the first laser hair removal device to effectively and efficiently destroy hair follicles of all colors including grey, blonde and red hair. Because the Comet device does not rely on chromophore like melanin to work (melanin is the natural pigment in human skin), it can safely treat even tanned skin.

The Comet is the Fastest Hair Removal Treatment on the Market

The Comet is faster than any other hair removal device or treatment available. The Comet can cut the time of hair removal treatment by 75%. A man’s back or woman’s legs can be treated in approximately 30 minutes. With our Medical Spa conveniently located in San Diego, fitting a treatment into any busy schedule is easy and expedient.

The Comet Hair Removal Treatments

The number of treatments required for optimal long-term benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, hair density and hair growth cycle. Your hair grows in cycles and many factors influence its growth. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in your hair’s location, thickness and resilience. In order to ensure the best outcome, you may be asked about your medical history and skin type in order to estimate the results you should expect from your customized treatment program at our San Diego medical and spa facility.

Are there any risks?

Side effects are rare. You may experience some slight reddening or local swelling at the treatment site, but this typically goes away within hours. Following the treatment, you can generally return to work and resume all regular activities immediately.

After your treatment at our San Diego medical offices, the area is cleansed and you can return to your normal activities immediately. Your physician may recommend that you use a specific skin care product or prescribe a skin care regime formulated for your skin type. Using sunscreen to limit sun exposure is very important.
