Why would my dermatologist mark the price of Latisse up to $150.00 if everyone is charging $120.00? That makes me sort of angry. What could be the reason for the increase?
Answer: Latisse pricing - too high? Thanks for your question - A physician may charge any price they want for Latisse. Maybe your dermatologist is providing additional services with the treatment. Maybe they're just pricey. It is hard to know. Here are some facts though: Latisse is made available from Allergan for about $75. As you can see most physicians are adding about $50 mark-up. In our San Francisco office we're offering Latisse for $110. This includes a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, instruction on use and monthly follow-up including pictures to demonstrate the progress. In addition to price look for added benefits of getting Latisse from a particular provider like discounts on other services, being able to actually meet with the physician to discuss risks, benefits and typical course as well as an ability to track your long term progress (monthly clinical photos of your lashes). I hope this helps.

Answer: Latisse prices vary
If your physician is pricing his/her Latisse much higher than other physicians, then he or she will probably not sell very much of it. Since Latisse is now available at many offices and med spas, patients definitely have a choice on where to buy it. This can also work against "desperate" offices and med spas that need business badly and are trying to bring in patients by offering "too good to be true" Latisse prices as a lost leader. The wholesale price for Latisse is $72 for physicians so when patients see it on sale for $85-$90 per bottle you can bet that office/med spa wants your other business too, because they cannot make their overhead on just their Latisse prices. Many patients will just buy their Latisse at these places then go back to their dermatologist or plastic surgeon that they know well for their treatments.

Answer: Latisse Price The price of Latisse varies in our area from approximately $99 - $150. The price charged at the physician's office is up to that office and is subject to whatever markup they would like to place on the product. While we're not sure why the price was increased, there are certainly many offices prescribing Latisse so you should have a few competitive alternatives in your area if the $150 price is too high.

Answer: Cost of Latisse Like any other product or prescription, you will find variations. As long as it is Latisse you are getting, you can shop around by phone and see what other offices are charging. Make sure you have an established relationship with that doctor in case you have any problems. They should also make sure you are an appropriate candidate.
