Description
Laser Hair Removal Dermatologist
Specialty physician complete packaged procedure per treatment per area.
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a laser (an intense, pulsating beam of light) to remove unwanted hair.
The laser beam passes through the skin to a single hair follicle. The intense heat of the laser damages the hair follicle, which inhibits future hair growth.
The procedure is most effective for those with light skin and dark hair. Although laser hair removal effectively slows hair growth, it doesn’t guarantee permanent hair removal. It typically takes several laser hair removal treatments to provide an extended hair-free period. Periodic maintenance treatments may be needed as well.
Treatment cost includes the facility fee, physician’s fee, cost of drugs, and any related medical procedures required to administer the plan of care.
Not included are diagnostic studies, consultations with additional specialists, and cost of complication management; travel, food, and lodging.
