DOES MY INSURANCE COVER LASER TREATMENTS?

NO IT DOES NOT.  Therefore laser treatment is a cash only treatment and financing will be discussed at the time of your consultation.

Care credit is an option that will be made available. It is a credit card specifically for medical procedures. You will be given a form to fill out at your consultation if you wish to apply or you may do so ahead of time.

SCHEDULING A LASER PROCEDURE

All prospective laser patients must meet with Dr. Messerly in consultation before your first laser procedure is scheduled. This enables us to provide you with the best and safest care and gives us opportunity to provide you with instructions prior to your procedure.

You will be charged $25. for a consultation fee which will be applied to your first laser treatment if you return.

We will also discuss financial arrangements for your laser procedure at the time of your consultation visit.
 

TREATMENT SCHEDULES

ACNE TREATMENTS:  REQUIRES 2 TREATMENTS PER WEEK FOR 4 WEEKS. This will equal a series of 8 treatments. You must complete all 8 treatments in order to have results.  One month of treatment is followed by one month of rest.  Repeating the series may be necessary to clear the symptoms.

SKIN REJUVINATION/ Wrinkle reduction:   This requires treating the entire face once every 4 weeks and the patient will need a minimum of 5-6 treatments. Skin rejuvenation does not occur with one or two treatments.  The patient must follow the post procedural protocol to effect a change.

VEIN TREATMENTS:     Generally veins are treated every 6-12 weeks. Large veins are treated every 12 weeks and smaller veins may be treated at 6-8 weeks.  The longer one waits between treatments, the fewer treatments may be needed. Large veins may take several months to clear and will probably need 204 treatments for complete clearance.

Vein treatments are usually scheduled in 15-30 minute increments.

Hair Removal:   It generally takes 6-10 treatments to see significant hair reduction. Maintenance treatments may be needed at longer intervals. Hair grows in three cycles and at different rates. The only time that hair can be effectively reduced is by killing the hair follicle when it is in anagen phase(this is when it actually has a blood supply).
Facial hair is treated every 4 weeks.
Facial hair in the upper lip and chin area are the most difficult to treat successfully and may require more treatments than other parts of the body.
Trunk hair( underarms, bikini hair, chest and back should be treated every 8 weeks.)

Rocecea:  

 

THE COSTS OF LASER TREATMENTS

At your consultation you will be given a price schedule for a group of treatments since most treatments need to be done in packages to create the best results. We will discuss payment options at the consultation time and you will be given the information you need to make a decision. We will also offer specials with our laser treatments and these will vary from time to time.
