Can You Afford Laser Hair Removal Treatment?
Can You Afford Laser Hair Removal Treatment?
by: Tami Cantar
Well, you’ve checked out some local clinics and you know the risks involved. You like the look of everybody’s ‘before and after’ pictures and you’re all set to part with your hard earned cash. But how can you be sure if your local professional isn’t making you pay through the nose? Here’s how. You need a critical overview of the guide price for all laser hair removal treatment, as well as individual prices for some of the best laser clinics out there.
First though – a warning. Every practitioner will tell you they’re the cheapest, just as every form of hair removal will boast its long term cost-effectiveness over its closest rival. This can make it difficult and misleading at the start of your search. The best thing to do if you’re shopping around is to get as many quotes as you can for the same length of treatment. You’ll begin to see the patterns, and you can decide for yourself if lasers fall inside your budget or not. For lengthy hair removal requirements, you may decide that waxing didn’t hurt that much after all.
The other thing to consider is whether or not you’re a good candidate for laser treatment. Light skinned consumers with dark hair have the best results, and grey, red or blonde hair tends to take a lot longer. So consider how many treatments you’re likely to need. How big and how dense is the area requiring treatment? Along with your practitioner and geographical area, these factors will all influence the sale price.
The national average for one basic treatment of laser therapy is about $360. It’s a little cheaper in the South, and getting on for $500 in the

Remember, you shouldn’t necessarily take the price list of your local laserologist as written in stone. Ask for special offers. Explain that you’ll be a regular customer, you’ll be parting with a lot of money and you want to pay for all treatments upfront in exchange for a discount. Beyond this, you can bring a friend along and see if you’ll get a discount for a referral. Ask if they run financing schemes in exchange for buying for multiple areas or ‘packaging’ with another procedure.
Doctors and laserologists are business people too, and they want you as a customer. Think about your options, and don’t be put off at first glance.

The typical cost of laser hair removal is $150 to $500, depending on the area of the body that is being treated. In most cases, the smaller the surface area to be treated, the lower the treatment cost. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average price of laser treatments in the United States is $429.
On average, the cost of laser hair removal in the smaller, bikini area is between $350 and $500. By contrast, the cost of treating a larger area, such as the back, averages between $600 and $900 per treatment session. However, treatment of the chest will only cost between $350 and $600. For the upper and lower legs, patients can expect to pay from $600 to $850 while the arms, on average, will cost only $350 to $500. The underarms are the cheapest area to treat, with a cost range of $250 to $350. But removing hair on the face and neck is comparable to the cost of laser hair removal on the back, with prices averaging $600 to $900 per treatment.
On an annual basis, the typical cost of laser hair removal can often be less expensive than waxing.
