Several financing options are available through CareCredit which has helped many of our patients manage their costs and begin the treatments they want right away. A simple application can be completed over the phone, fax or online in as little as 5 minutes. The cost of financing is usually only 5% of your total bill. Ask us for more information.

Payment Policies

Co-payments and payments for procedures must be rendered at the time of the visit. We accept Cash, Personal Check, VISA, MASTERCARD, American Express and Discover.

All consultations are complementary and address your individual concerns in a private meeting with a staff member experienced in aesthetic dermatology.
