Framingham neighbors: do you have young children? If so, there’s a chance you might have to deal with head lice in your near future.

According to the CDC, head lice infestations in the U.S. are most common among pre-school and elementary school children and their household members and caretakers. An estimated 6 to 12 million lice infestations occur each year in the U.S. among children 3-11 years old.

This means that the kids of Framingham may come home with an itchy head at some point. One of our goals is to help parents to be as prepared as possible for a head lice outbreak because it can be scary if you don’t know what to do. We have a clinic nearby that deals with head lice cases every day and offers a one-of-a-kind head lice treatment that is fast, safe and chemical-free. Our lice removal treatment is well worth it in every way.

Don’t Buy Drugstore Lice Treatments

Lice removal is much more difficult nowadays than it was in the past because we are now up against super lice. Super lice look and act just like regular lice but are resistant to pesticides and chemicals that are used in over-the-counter lice treatments. This comes as a result of a mutation in lice as they have evolved and become stronger. They can often withstand the harsh chemicals that once killed them on the first try. Rid and Nix used to be the most popular lice treatments on the market and they are now putting parents into tears because they don’t work. We want parents to be aware of this so they don’t spend their money and time using an ineffective lice treatment.

What We Can Do For Our Framingham Friends

At Lice Clinics of America, Medway, we have one of the only lice treatments that super lice are not resistant to. Our FDA-Cleared AirAllé® device is a lifesaver when it comes to lice removal. It uses controlled heated air to dehydrate lice and their eggs and does the trick every time. This revolutionary product was carefully designed by a scientist in Utah with the purpose to kill super lice in a completely safe and pesticide-free way. The AirAllé® lice removal device is then followed by a comb out and a topical rinse to ensure a successful treatment.

Lice removal is our specialty and we do it in the safest and most effective way possible. So if you live in Framingham and have a lice crisis, just give us a call.
