What's the average cost of having age spots/discoloration removed from the face?

Question

Cheryl Karcher, MD · Answer

It's hard to give an exact price without a full consultation but let me give you an idea of the different types of treatments available and the associated costs. If you have individual spots treated with just cryotherapy or liquid nitrogen, that can be fairly inexpensive and the cost would be $200 or so. There's also several lasers that can treat individual spots and give you great results. The price depends on which laser, and how many spots you're having treated and that can run in the hundreds or more depending on the number of spots. If you choose to have the whole face treated with intense pulse light (IPL) laser that can cost about $600 or more, and the Fraxel laser which gets rid of the spots and helps with the wrinkles can run over $1000. I hope that gives you an idea of the options that are available.

Costs vary by the type of treatment. I would suggest the Kareskin Brightening Kit with Melarase creams as a first line therapy followed by Clear and Brilliant if necessary afterwards. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Hello, Thank you for your question. A great treatment for discoloration is a photo facial laser. It will lighten and remove the dark spots. You may need more than one treatment, and they usually start around $500. It is best to consult with a local physician for a more accurate price and plan. Good luck!

Without a photo, it is hard to guide you definitively. However, the cost for BBL (a form of IPL) starts at $125. A treatment with a Halo Laser starts at $1000. Consult in person with an experienced and expert physician to understand your options.

Thank you for your question! Sun Damage and Hyperpigmentation can usually be treated by various different lasers as well as chemical peels. My aesthetics nurse, Annie Bruno, RN has patients come into the office for a complimentary assessment and sets up treatment pathways after discussing and viewing the patient's skin/concerns. I would definitely recommend a full assessment with a specialist before moving forward with any treatments. I hope this is helpful to you, and wishing you all the best!Be well,Dr. Todd Hobgood, MD
