Is It OK to Negotiate Cost with my Dermatologist?

While every private medical practice sets their own payment policies, they are generally restricted by several things, such as the actual cost of the product, facility fees, etc. You can certainly ask kindly if they would be able to negotiate, but you should be prepared to accept their price.

The answer to this depends on what type of relationship you have with your practitioner. If you are a long time patient who has less resources with which to continue your treatments then it may be a very easy conversation.
But if you are new to a practice, the conversation is not as easy. We would not necessarily advise it especially if you are speaking directly with your injector about the pricing. It's a touchy subject because trying to negotiate a cheaper deal right off the bat makes it a bit more difficult to feel like a trusted relationship is developing.

Negotiation could be okay to an extent. Pricing is usually carefully thought out and is set for a reason. Negotiation could get you somewhere but it could turn your doctor off and this could be a negative in your treatment in all honesty. You get what you pay for sometimes and this applies to everything. Choosing the right doctor is the most important thing. Even if you pay a little bit more, if the doctor takes care of you it will be worth it. He will bend over backwards for you if he feels he is being treated fairly.
Consulting a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon would be something that I would recommend. We specialize in the face and are highly qualified to help you with this.
