The best around. We have gone to others that don't compare in any way shape or form. She's professional and the most knowledgeable person in the Boston area. Don't waste your money on anyone else. read more

I heard about Camille because she is so highly regarded in the LGBT+ community. After seeing her once, I decided I wouldn't be going anywhere else ! I would plan my touch ups around holidays when I was in town visiting my family. She did my under arms and bikini area and some touch ups on my upper lip. She's also more affordable than most of the medspas read more

I foolishly went to Camille for a year wasting money just to get my skin ruined because she was nice and hinted at the start that it wouldn't take too many sessions for the hair to permanently go away. When I found a new electrologist who, by the way had far more reasonable prices, she asked if I had bad acne growing up because of the pitting in my skin. Camille said the skin would heal but 4 years later I still have the scars. Do not go here. You will just waste your money. Omg I just remembered how she would spend so much time talking and not treating my face. Towards the end, it started to seem purposeful but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. It was so frustrating. I wanted to say "FOCUS! work while you talk because I'm not paying you $110 to hear you yap." Well, I'm saying it now. read more

I have PCOS and the chin hair problem was completely out of hand. Doctors warned that laser can actually make the hair regrow worse, and suggested electrolysis. Camille was within walking distance of my apartment in Brookline at the time and immediately fit me in. On the first day she clearly explained the two different zaps she would test with and see which my body responded best with. She has worked with trans people and people with PCOS so I knew I was in good hands. She talks to you to distract you from the little zaps, which I appreciate, and the time always went by quickly! We had a lot of work to do, so that winter went once a week (my situation was REALLY DIRE, like dwarf beard) and after a few months we slowed to once every other week, then by summer once per month, and now it's been three years and I plan to pop in for a touch up in the fall as it's been about 7 months. I could consider myself done already as it's only a few VERY LIGHT nearly invisible blond hairs that nobody but me would even notice, but I love how perfectly baby smooth my neck/chin is since going to Camille, and I like to pop in for a zap rather than reach for the tweezers. I gave up tweezers as soon as I started seeing her. All this is to say, it's life-changing. If you have PCOS and have been haunted by your Hagrid chin, go see Camille. She'll fix you up. Also I love that through the entire pandemic she continues to wear a kn95 mask and sanitize the station/hands. She never stopped being careful when the rest of the world gave up. We love safety and attention to detail! read more

Camille gave me my confidence back. Being of Eastern European descent means dark hair and light skin, what a great combo for a disaster. I went to her for 4 years and she was able to get rid of almost all of my darker facial hair. It's a slow, painful process but it's worth it. No more waxing, plucking or bleaching. Thank god I found her! read more

I really was excited and wanted to like this. Camille is great however, I am still recovering 4 weeks later with persistent hyperpigmentation. Thankfully it only looks like acne but I did have to seek treatment as I thought my skin burned (it did not). After my initial treatment it looked like I got punched in the face that's how red it was. I've received electrolysis before and have never had this reaction. It also was very painful (when previously it had not been). I don't think the settings were right and I will not be trying it here again. In the meantime I'm hoping this red spots go away and my face heals. read more

Camille was very professional, informative and accommodating. She made me feel so comfortable and made sure that I knew all of the different options for hair removal! I went in wanting electrolysis for my bikini but she spot tested a few areas with electrolysis and laser... I realized that laser was actually a better and cheaper option!! She did great read more

Camille is so lovely! She's been in the business a long time and knows what she's talking about. It's great she does laser and electrolysis because she can tell you what will work better. Her prices are very comparable too. Highly recommend- and I've been to most electrolysis places in the area. read more

I love Camille and Advanced Electrolysis! A little background: I had been going for *weekly* electrology sessions at another professional for 10 months before I found Camille. I was unhappy with the results and the fact that I had been going for so long yet barely noticed a change (if anything, I felt like there was MORE hair.) I met with Camille and a few minutes into the consultation I realized why the other place I had been going to was not successful-- they were tweezing my hairs after 1 or 2 zaps, without killing the root-- of course the hair kept coming back! I had a breakthrough last week when I actually had to CANCEL an appointment with Camille because I had NO HAIR for her to zap. This is after just one month of treatments. I am going in tomorrow and barely have anything. I am so happy I found her! read more

Camille is awesome! As an African-American woman, it was important to me find a person who is professional and familiar with all skin types. Camille is all of the above! For those who are complaining of scarring, I question if you listened to her aftercare instructions. I too was hard headed in the beginning and experienced some scarring, because I failed to follow her instructions. However, once I did...surprise, no more scarring, and pitting. You can't beat her pricing and her professionalism. She's the best hands down. Tip: For hard headed people like myself, Hydroquinone 4% works well on fading dark scars. It requires a prescription and most insurances don't cover it, but you can get a coupon from GoodRx.com, which reduces the cost. read more

Using advanced electrolysis caused permanent scarring and pitting on my face that has been there for almost a year. I wish I could go back in time and undo the damage that has been done. Very disappointing experience. I will be choosing a different electrolosist for my future appointments. If you have the option to use a different electrolosist I would unless you want to risk permanent and noticeable damage to your skin. read more

** THE BEST FOR MEN ** I have known Camille since 2001, when I was an undergrad at Harvard College. As a man, my girlfriend at the time introduced me to Camille, and she literally changed my life. I had horrible eyebrows that I had been plucking for years with ingrown roots. Camille sculpted beautiful, masculine, timeless eyebrows that I regularly get complements on today. She did other parts of my body (beardline, back of neck, feet) and did an exquisite job there. I feel so much more confident about myself now. She also did laser work on my back, which worked out great. Since then, I never let anyone else touch my body. I now live in California but come back to visit Camille in Boston if I need any other work done. Not only that, but my mom, dad, and 3 siblings have all seen Camille. My mom will drive 5 hours from NJ to see Camille because there's no one else like her. Seriously. It's a matter of trusting her as a practitioner and as a person, and trusting her judgment. She's wicked smart and has a great aesthetic, and she is extremely meticulous and thorough and thoughtful about every hair removed. I have complete faith in her. Talking to my friends who got electrolysis and laser, I will say that her prices are extremely fair. Camille has been doing this work for decades with a sense of integrity and commitment and quality that is honestly really rare to find in this world today. She loves what she does, she loves her clients, and she gives us her all. I feel so blessed also to have had all these hours talking with her -- she's given me personal advice and guidance that have been really life changing, and she has been and incredible confidant -- all of this trust and admiration deeply earned through 13 years of knowing one another. She's truly a rare one. If you actually live in the Boston Area, consider yourself lucky this woman is in your neighborhood. Ever now in this, when I look in the mirror, I give thanks for Camille and all of her amazing work (mostly on the outside, but also on the inside :) that made me the man I am today. read more

Camille is literally THE BEST - period. She is an older woman who is extremely knowledgeable and experienced - and extremely professional, friendly, and lovely! It's quite obviously she takes great pride in her own business, as reflected in her professionalism. I'm not sure what else to say - I mean, there's nothing more to say. Her office is VERY clean, she is a true professional and seems to know EVERYTHING about electrolysis and hair in general! read more

HORRIBLE customer service, they're aggressive and extremely rude. Was just trying to ask questions about their services and was hung up on, and then when I called back got told to just check the website (which doesn't have the information I needed). Do not recommend ESPECIALLY for transgender patients, they're hostile for no reason. read more

Camille is very skilled, professional, and friendly. Her offices on Beacon street are spotlessly clean. Great experience.

Camille is wonderful! I would recommend her to anyone as she provides the best electrolysis service I have ever experienced up to date. She is flexible with time appointments, punctual and her work provides great results. I have been seeing her for a year or so now and could not be happier with the results. It is somewhat painful, but VERY worth it! Camille is very knowledgable about electrolysis and effective hair removal. read more

Camille is great and very knowledgeable about electrolysis. She explains the whole electrolysis process and she's fun to talk to. I ultimately chose her because of the Yelp reviews and I couldn't agree more with what's been said. She's really understanding of schedule changes. Even though my treatment isn't done, I'm definitely seeing results and I've been thoroughly satisfied. read more

I am loathe to write this review, as Camille truly is a very lovely woman, as evidenced by all the posts on this page. That being said, I cannot endorse her as an electrologist. I have been doing electrology for almost a decade (I started with my eyebrows, which are basically done, and have moved onto other problem areas around my face), and I have struggled to find a good electrologist in the Boston area since moving here not long ago. Sadly, Camille is possibly the most incompetent electrologist I have ever gone to. I grant that it was my first appointment and that she needed time to adjust settings on her machine to my personal needs, etc. That being said, I was there nearly an hour, and she barely removed any hair at all. She spent more time fiddling with her machine than she did actually getting hair off my face. As a busy professional, who has time for that! (As a caveat, she did end up charging me for only half an hour because she realized how little work she had actually done on my face.) I am also no stranger to electrolysis, as I mentioned above. I have NEVER experienced so much pain at electrolysis as I did with Camille. I was having so much pain from the short wave electrolysis that eventually she switched to the galvanic, which did hurt less. She also assured me that the advantage of galvanic electrolysis is that it results in almost no prolonged redness / bumpiness to the skin (in the short term, it does make your skin quite irritated, but she told me that this fades within 20-30 minutes). However, my skin is still quite red and even burned looking where she did the galvanic electrolysis. I have never had this type of reaction to electrolysis before. I am sorry to write such a negative review because like I said, Camille truly is a nice person. But, at the same time, a skilled electrologist should be able to remove hair efficiently, competently, and with as little pain as possible. I do not think Camille has these attributes. read more

Camille is by far the best electrologist in town! I absolutely love her. I found her years ago through yellow pages and I am so thankful that I did! I spent years and lots of agony trying to get rid of unwanted hair. I tried plucking, waxing, and even laser years ago but nothing worked and it ended up making it worse. After many sessions with Camille I was able to get rid of this hair once and for all! I can't tell you what an amazing feeling it is to show your face and body with confidence, knowing that there is no more unwanted hair. It has completely changed my life. I cannot recommend electrolysis - especially Camille - enough! I have tried groupons for other places that do laser and they don't even compare. The salons are sketchy, the staff are rude and pushy, the results are lack-luster making you go back time after time. With Camille I am always satisfied. Not only is Camille extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and has the best tools - but she is so sweet! I spent the whole hour just chatting to her because it's so easy to talk to her and you can talk to her about anything. Personally I don't find electrolysis to be very painful but this depends on your pain threshold. Camille will have a consultation with you before you start any procedures and will adjust the level of the machine to make sure it's comfortable for you. If you're thinking of doing electrolysis (or laser), this is the place to go! I can't say enough good things about Camille. NOTE: she only accepts cash or check. read more

Camille is the best. I had consultations with many electrologists before I finally settled on Camille. She was warm and engaging, has been in practice many years, and you can tell she loves her job. Don't be afraid to speak up! She will adjust your treatment according to the feedback you give her about how your skin heals up, and what you experience after your session. She knows her stuff, she's funny, and she's honest. Camielle answers her own phone, so no need to go through a receptionist. To be honest, its nice when she takes a call and you get a mini-break from the electrolysis haha. She's able to keep her overhead low, and her prices fair. And her flexibility is AMAZING. If you don't end up enjoying seeing her on a weekly basis, something is wrong with you. She's the coolest, and no hair problem is too unsightly for her. I was so embarrassed when I first went, and she made me feel right at ease about my insecurities. Also, she specializes in ethnic skin. My skin tends to blemish and "scar" easily--I get dark spots after blemishes go away, which eventually fade. No scarring with Camille. My skin is perfection. Big plus: she's knowledgable about pretty much everything, and gives great tips about other businesses in the area. read more

Camille is a nice lady and I felt comfortable going to her however...I had been receiving treatment on sides of face for about 7 months. Permanent hair loss was definitely happening and I was really excited about that. I went out to dinner one night and was in a very bright bathroom when I noticed pitting and scarring on the sides of my face. I was so shocked and freaked out and never went back. I can still see the pitting and scarring in certain light which has given me a new thing to be insecure about. yay. I did alot of research and learned that the pitting and scarring happens from incorrectly performed electrolysis or temperatures that are too high. I remember her explaining to me why the heat was going to get turned up. Not to mention every session i had with her was a half hour and she talked so much I think she did about 10 minutes of work. What a waste of money read more

Camille is awesome. I saw her regularly years ago and she completely eradicated my significant facial hair. Yes, electrolysis is painful - if it's not, I doubt you'll see the benefits. I use EMLA cream and it helps with the pain. Trust me the more current you can tolerate, the quicker you'll see results. Camille knows electrology inside and out and will never steer you wrong. I did experience a hormonal shift recently so have some new hair to deal with, so I am going with Camille to take care of it. read more

Camille is professional and a wonderful person. I moved out of the country. When I'm in town, I see Camille not only for electrolysis work but also for great conversation. I highly recommend her. read more

Camille is fantastic! There is no one like her in the Boston area. She is the only one who uses blend technology, and it really works! She is professional and friendly and honestly this is the best money I've spent in a long time (and I have wasted plenty of money on other failed hair removal attempts). I recommend her without reservation -- she exceeded all of my expectations, on every measure. read more

highly experienced, extremely honest, very gentle, and not overpriced. Don't waste your time going anywhere else, she is as good as it gets!

Camille is great! This is the second place I've been to for electrolysis and I couldn't be happier that I made the switch. She genuinely cares about you as a patient and knows exactly how to help. I have never written a yelp review but I did ultimately choose advanced electrolysis because of the great reviews on here! Highly recommended read more

I have used many electrolysis services over the years but Camille has been the best. I recently moved out of Boston, and I am now struggling to find a replacement service that meets Camille's high standard. Her office is very clean, and actually feels more like a doctor's office than a spa, but this actually made me feel more comfortable. I know that her main goal was to be efficient and achieve results. Over two years I definitely saw an improvement in the areas where I wanted hair removed. I know she really cares about her clients and takes her job seriously. She is board certified and extremely knowledgeable about hair removal and skin care. I definitely recommend Camille! read more

my experience with camille left me with a lot of scarring and pitting on my face. i would do anything to go back in time and choose hair and flawless skin over a bit less hair and horrible ugly scars. read more

I recently started electrolysis treatments with Camille and as uncomfortable as they are I actually look forward to them! During my consultation she explained the process thoroughly but simply and encouraged me to try out a few areas to see if I would need to ask a doctor for anesthetic cream. She does a great job with explaining the post-treatment care (and always sends me off with a bag of ice) and makes sure to share next week's plan before I leave. Her rates are very reasonable, her hours are the most flexible I found in the area, and her disposition and professionalism makes the whole deal a lot better. read more

Camille is an amazing and wonderful woman! I started going here about 2 years ago for electrolysis and looked forward to my visits despite the discomfort because she is so interesting, bubbly, and yet professional and GREAT at her job. I had started electrolysis somewhere else and left every time looking like a bee had stung my face in 50 different spots and the hair never seemed to go away. When Camille started with me, she (vey professionally) downplayed what I could tell was disapproval of how my face had been managed and quickly went about doing the job in half the time I'd been going to the other place! And I could barely see the work she had done each time after I left. I look forward to my semi-annual "clean-ups." Couldn't recommend more highly! read more

I have been going to Camille for a few months now. I started with a small area, and have since expanded to several areas. Camille is warm, friendly, and the utmost professional. She has accommodated me on short notice, and when her schedule is booked, will always call when she has a cancellation. She is meticulous in her cleanliness, and shows me the new needle each time. She has worked with my very sensitive skin, and I am never out of commission longer than I would be after a wax. I have done a consult with her about laser for my bikini, and although it isn't cheap, Camille's professionalism and trustworthiness are worth more to me than a groupon. Recommend without reservation. Plus, her personality is awesome!!! read more

Camille is phenomenal. I've been a loyal customer for 3+ years. First, visits were frequent (as expected), but once results started to show, less and less frequent appointments were in order. Now, only quarterly or even semi-annual visits are needed. read more

Camille is wonderful. She is professional, effective, and pleasant. She is always on time. In the past I had used another provider and for many years would go back every six weeks. Camille removed my chin and lip hairs in just three or four sessions. And they have not come back! Camille saved me time, money, pain and inconvenience Thank you Camille! read more
