Chemical peels are a safe, salient, and sometimes critical as a non-surgical dermatology procedure to rejuvenate facial skin. During the pre-op consultation, the treatment provider will discuss various facial rejuvenation options, and explain the benefits and limitations of different types of chemical peels. The provider will inform the estimated costs to help the patient make the best decision.
Chemical peels are considered a cosmetic procedure, which means the costs will have to be paid out of pocket. Board certified dermatologists Dr. Tri H. Nguyen and Dr. George Hughes III provide various types of chemical peels to patients in Houston, Katy, Spring, The Woodlands, Texas, and other neighborhoods and cities in this section of the giant and robust state of Texas.
Financial Factors
The dollar figure for chemical peel treatments can differ between two dermatology practices and even between two patients at the same practice. The following factors will influence the costs:
- Location of the Practice
Where the practice is located will make a difference to the average costs of a chemical peel treatment. Factors such as median household income, real estate costs and local taxes will go into determining the actual costs of goods and services, including skin care procedures, in a particular region. Main metropolitan areas and prime urban centers typically have higher costs compared to small towns.
- Quality Standards of the Practice
The best practices and quality standards adopted at a particular practice, the type of pre- and post-op care offered, the quality of ingredients used in chemical peels, the expertise of the peel treatment provider, the kind of personalized care and service offered to a patient and other facilities will make a difference to the overall costs of the procedure.
- Type of Chemical Peel
Chemical peels are provided in three main categories: superficial peels, medium peels, and deep peels. Superficial peels will typically be the most affordable, while deep peels will be the costliest. Within each category, a variety of customized and standard chemical peel options are available. Costs will vary according to the strength of the peel, length of the treatment, and the stages involved in the procedure.
- Packages and Offers
Sometimes a special promotion offer may be available the dermatology practice, particularly when a new chemical peel treatment or product is introduced. In this period, patients can avail of special prices. In some cases, the practice may be able to offer a special package price, if the patient wants to receive periodic treatments of chemical peels or wants to combine the peel treatment with another cosmetic procedure.
- Payment and Financing
The dermatology practice will usually require the payment to be made upfront for any cosmetic procedure. But they may offer the convenience of payment via major credit cards, debit cards, checks, and cash. If the payment is substantial and the patient does not want to pay full amount upfront, they may consider financing options.
Third party financing is available through professional medical care finance companies, apart from the traditional bank financing.
