Are Rebates Based on Area or Syringe?

Two weeks ago I had Dysport to lift eyebrows and reduce crowsfeet. The promo was a $50 rebate from Dysport and $50 savings from the Dr. He suggested that I get another syringe in the same area for better results. I took his suggestion, thinking I would not only benefit, but I would receive an additional $50 from him $50 from Dysport. I was billed $600 and I'm only getting a $50 rebate. Should I have gotten the extra rebate and the same from the DR?

Dysport Rebates

All good feedback from panel members. As explained, the $50.00 Medicis (Dysport) rebate is based upon the treatment and not amount of product being used. If your physician was offering an additional incentive of a $50.00 discount at the time of the treatment, it would be a good idea to bring to his attention that this was not done.

Toxin rebates are usually for the re-visit

Rebates really depend upon what the company offers. Toxin rebates are usually for the re-visit. With rebates on syringes, it may be a per syringe offer or a promotion from the doctor’s office. The websites of these companies usually have details on any promotions that they are offering. BOTOX usually has the count per unit, not the syringe. But often fillers will count syringes for the rebalte.

Dysport Rebates - Does the amount used matter?

No. The rebates from Medicis are based on "a treatment" and it does not matter how many cc, syringes, or units are used.

$50 Rebate from Medicis...

NO, the $50 rebate was offered by Medicis, the makers of Dysport. It is only $50 per customer on the first visit. As for the $50 discount offered by the doctor... it sounds like it was only $50 off for the visit no matter if you purchase 1 or 5 syringes. Hope this helps. Dr. Grant Stevens

Read the fine print on rebates for Dysport, Botox, Restylane, Juvederm.

When you went in for your Dysport treatment, and the doctor discussed the $50 rebate from the company (Medicis) and his own optional additional $50 rebate, to me it sounds like you should have had $100 total off the treatmtent. That would equal $50 off from him at the time of the visit, and another $50 you only get back from Medicis usually after mailing in a receipt showing treatment. If after explaining all of that he suggested you get additional Dysport (on the same day, it sounds like... more

Dysport $50 Rebate

The $50 rebate offered by Medicis is currently running May1 – June 30, 2011. This rebate applies to one treatment visit since the FDA recommends that botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) treatments not be performed less than three months apart. The manufacturers are therefore bound to comply with this three month time frame when offering rebate programs. Your doctor should be aware of these details. The additional $50 rebate offered by the practice is his decision, and it was nice that he... more

It is important to carefully understand the rebate program.

In the heat of the moment, it is easy to hear one thing even if you are told another. It is also important to study the rebate programs and carefully follow all the steps so your refund is accurately processed. Keep copies of the materials you send in and mark your calendar to follow up if you have not received the rebate in a timely manner. If you are having difficulties, let the doctor's office know because the company rep can look into a particular situation if need be. more

Dysport Rebate

The Medicis rebate for Dysport is valid for one treatment visit, so no matter how much is injected you can only get $50 back from Medicis. As far as the savings from the practice, this is their decision.
