What we do: Trans careSalem, Massachusetts

Trans care, since 2018.

Transitioning is a deeply personal journey, and since 2018 this has been a supportive, affirming room for members of the transgender community. We offer laser hair removal and skin rejuvenation designed around your needs at whatever stage you are — face, body, or both — and we start the same way we start with everyone: sitting down, no charge, nothing to decide.

What we offer

The two things people come for, and the way they are done.

Laser hair removal, face

Beard shadow, the upper lip, the neck. The GentleMax Pro™ treats all skin types, and facial hair responds well over a series.

Laser hair removal, body

Chest, back, arms, legs, or areas a surgeon has asked you to clear before a procedure. Bring their instructions and we will follow them exactly.

Skin rejuvenation

Acne scarring, fine lines, redness, uneven tone — photofacials, microneedling and collagen work, tailored to your skin.

A safe and inclusive space

Your name and your pronouns, used. No questions you did not come to answer. One room, one practitioner, and the door closed.

Hormones and hair

Hormone therapy changes how hair grows and can change how many visits you need. We will tell you what to expect honestly, and adjust.

No referral needed

You do not need a letter, a diagnosis or anyone's permission to book.

What a visit is like

Three parts. Nobody is rushed through any of them.

01

A conversation

About an hour, in private, no charge. What you want, what has been tried, what timeline you are working to. We answer everything.

02

The treatment

The same care as every other client — cooling ahead of each pulse, small areas in minutes, the room to yourself.

03

Ongoing

Hair removal is a series; skin work is often a series too. You pay per visit, you set the pace, and the person you see is the same one every time.

The tool

GentleMax Pro™

You will never have to ask for it by name.

Two wavelengths in one laser, so darker skin and lighter skin are both treated safely, with cooling that fires just before each pulse. For skin work we use the same tools as everyone else — photofacials, microneedling and collagen infusion.

Trish has been Candela-certified since 2005.

What the GentleMax Pro™ actually is →
What it costs

One visit at a time.

No packages, nothing prepaid. You pay at the visit, for the visit, and you can stop whenever you like.

Prices are the same as for every other client — small areas of hair removal from $125, medium from $500, large from $750 — and everything is paid one visit at a time.

The first conversation is free.

Questions people ask

Asked in the room, answered here.

Do I need a referral or a letter?

No. You book, we talk, and we go from there. If a surgeon has given you instructions about pre-operative hair removal, bring them and we follow them.

Is it private?

Yes. The practice is by appointment only, in a single room with the door closed. There is no waiting-room crowd and nobody else is treated at the same time.

Does hormone therapy change the treatment?

It can change how hair grows and how quickly it responds, so some people need more visits and some fewer. We will tell you what we are seeing rather than promise a number up front.

What does it cost?

Exactly what it costs everyone else. There is no separate price list, no package and nothing to prepay.
