How much does skin rejuvenation and resurfacing cost?

The average cost of intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment is $391 and the average cost of nonsurgical skin tightening is $2,059, according to 2018 statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

The cost of skin resurfacing and rejuvenation procedures can vary. A surgeon's cost may vary based on his or her experience, the type of procedure used, and the geographic location of the office.

Most health insurance does not cover cosmetic surgery or its complications, but many plastic surgeons offer patient financing plans, so be sure to ask.

Depending on the specific regimen chosen, skin rejuvenation and resurfacing costs may include:

• Surgeon's fee
• Procedure costs
• Facility costs
• Anesthesia fees
• Prescriptions for medication
• Medical tests

When choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing, remember that the surgeon's experience and your comfort with him or her are just as important as the final cost of the procedure.
