How Much Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Cost?
A lot will depend on which laser and the policy of the physician. For example, are touch ups for free or charged additionally? Is there a facility fee? In my practice, the fee will depend on which laser I use.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Price $500 to $5000
Depending on the modality and the areas to be lasered, the cost will be $500 - $5000 per treatment. I would not purchase a package as you generally want an experienced laser specialist to utilize different modalities depending on how you are responding to treatment and if there are any changes to your lifestyle.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Pricing
Being that Laser Skin Resurfacing shouldn't be considered cookie cutter medicine, we tailor the pricing and package to meet the needs of each individual patient.
Although having a full face done is recommended, in certain cases not everyone needs the whole face done, for example, some may have great cheeks and forehead and may only want to focus on the eyes and mouth or another patient may only need pigment depth laser settings on the whole face but small...

Define what treatments you want first
Hello,
There are so many treatments on the market you are probably better off first defining what you want. Look into the mirror and decide what issues are most important to you and then find a few honest doctors to get some opinions as to how to best address these problems. Then get prices and compare.

Cost of laser skin resurfacing
Costs for cosmetic procedures vary so widely, from area to area, and from doctor to doctor. Not all lasers are the same as far as efficacy. The doctors who use lasers where you are offered a "package" deal certainly imply that a single treatment won't be particularly effective. Perhaps a single deeper but safe treatment with one recovery is better and more effective than the "package" deals which offer shorter recovery but require multiple...

Laser resurfacing can vary...
Laser resurfacing can vary from 500 to 5000. Usually, a series is only for very superficial resurfacing. Your goals, objectives, and skin condition are all factors. You need to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and/or Dermatologist to find the ideal treatment profile.

Upon consultation and examination your surgeon will recommend the appropriate laser and treatment plan to address your individual concerns. Best wishes!

Laser Skin Resurfacing Price
Laser skin resurfacing and prices are different from patient to patient depending on each persons individual needs. In my practice in Newport Beach we schedule a complimentary consultation and then decide which treatment is best for the individual treatment. Some patients may not be candidates for a particular type of laser and the fees vary as do the patients needs. For a CO2 full face laser it is generally in the range of $3500.00. I do not suggest buying a package as your treatments...

Cost of Laser Resurfacing
In Salt Lake City, a microlaser peel is $350/treatment and a deep laser is $2500. Usually more than one microlaser peel is necessary to correct the concern. Your resurfacing specialist should have multiple options (i.e. chemical peels, dermabrasion, IPL, etc...) to help you achieve your goals.

Laser Resurfacing Costs Will Depent on the Type of Laser
The cost of laser resurfacing will depend on the type of laser used. I also advise patients to not buy packages. These are simply marketing tools to get you to buy a product. Some laser treatments, like CO2 resurfacing, are designed as single treatments while some such as erbium treatments can require multiple treatments. If you buy a package though, you will be locked into completing a series of treatments even though you may not be getting the results that you desire.

Cost of Laser Resurfacing
A the low end, non-ablative laser resurfacing may cost $500 per treatment and at the high end, CO2 resurfacing may cost $4,000 - $5,000. As one of the other practitioners mentioned, you should first figure out what the best options are for your particular condition and then work to afford the kind of treatment that will deliver good results. If you focus just on cost, you may risk not choosing the right procedure to help with your condition.
