Microneedling costs: I was recently quoted a price for $800 for one session of microneedling.

Question

This is in San Francisco by a double board-certified plastic surgeon. I only want the chin area done. Why am I being charged $800 for a small area? Aren't people charged the same for the entire face?

While prices can vary quite a bit depending on where you live, this does seem a little high for treating only the chin. You also didn't note what kind of microneedling you were looking at (ie. is it using a microneedling pen, an RF microneedling device, or adding PRP?). There can be a range of prices depending on what type of microneedling you were looking at. As a point of reference, I price our RF microneedling, with the Vivace device, at $700-800/treatment for the whole face, with the price range depending on whether you purchase a package of treatments or pursue a single treatment. While Sacramento prices are typically a little lower than Bay Area prices, hopefully this gives you a benchmark for prices in Northern California.

Microneedling with prp can be more pricey, but prices may vary from city to city.Getting a few consults prior to making a decision is always wise.You will need series of treatments.Choose an expert. Best. Dr Brecht
