We charge $900 for the laser. If there is any question whether the nails have fungus or not, we will do a biopsy at your initial visit and you will have to come back for the laser if the biopsy is positive.
If we do the biopsy we will charge you insurance if you have it and we take it, or charge you $200 for the consult. The laboratory also takes insurance and if you do not have insurance they will charge you as well.
If it turns out that you do not have nail fungus, we will not do the laser and the $200 charge is your only responsibly to us. The lab will not return their fee.
If you do have fungus and we proceed with laser treatment, simply deduct the $200 consult charge from the $900 being charged for the procedure.
If you have a flex spending account or a medical savings account, those funds can be usually be used to pay for the services we provide.
Most people will see improvement after three visits. Many places charge $900 per visit, so some of our clients look at our pricing as paying for one and getting two free! We do require the $900 payment to be completed prior to our services on the first visit for laser. Cash or cards are acceptable forms of payment.
If after three treatments the doctors think that you will benefit from additional laser treatments the cost will be $250 per laser after the initial three. Often, this is the case where most of the nail has grown out but not all of it. We are ethical doctors and if we feel that additional lasers will not benefit you, we will tell you not to spend the additional money. To date, the most laser procedures we have done is 10. This was at a cost of $900 for the initial three lasers and $1,750 for the next seven lasers for a total of $2,650. Considering many doctors in NYC charge $1,800 for one treatment, I’d say we are the most fairly priced laser for nail fungus in NYC. BTW: after 10 lasers, he was cured!
We use the most advanced Laser for nail fungus:The Cutera Genesis Laser is 80 Watts. This is 20 times more powerful than the first generation of FDA approved lasers for nail fungus. The Cutera Genesis 1064nm laser is a safe and effective option for treatment of nail fungus. The heat generated by the laser penetrates deep inside the nail where the fungus resides. It kills the fungus that causes nail disease (Dermatophytes). It is relatively painless. Most patients report feeling some heat and occasional discomfort. The heat does not damage the surrounding skin. The laser procedure is done in our office and takes 20-40 minutes depending on how many nails are effected. No anesthesia or pain killers are necessary and patients may return to normal activity and work immediately after the procedure with zero down-time. |
