How Much Does IPL Cost?

Depends on your geographic location, the brand of IPL, and the person who does it. It is not the same that a Dermatolgist or Plastic Surgeon performs the treatment, compared to a non physican, aesthetician, PA or nurse. Make sure the person doing it is a Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon, if not, at least that the person doing it is under the supervision of the specialist for better and optimal results, and also for less risks of side effects.

IPL ranges in cost from $150 to 500 per session depending on the skill level of the provider, the type of IPL used and other factors.  Older IPL systems are much less effective and patients and the difference between effective treatment and a burn is very low.  Newer IPL systems are much more effective and safer and treat the skin much like a combination of LASER and IPL.  

I have seen the cost of an IPL full face treatment any where from $250 to $475. This pricing can be determined by the type of technology, the time spent with the patient in the treatment room, and the facility or technician performing the treatment.

In Ohio all laser treatments other than laser hair removal must be administered by a physician, so they may cost a bit more than states where physician extenders can perform the treatment.  The cost is usually $300-400/treatment.  Most patients need 3-5 treatments, one month apart.

This really depends on a variety of factors, such as the city you're in, the technology used, and the area you'd like to have treated. Generally, in Toronto, Ontario, you can expect to pay around $300 for a session targeting the face.
