Laser Hair Removal Prices in New Jersey

Bella Medspa has two locations just over the bridge from New Jersey. (Center City and Newtown, PA) We consequently treat many New Jersey residents from the Trenton, Princeton and Cherry Hill areas. Many of our New Jersey clients remark on the substantial differences between our laser hair removal prices and the prices offered by New Jersey clinics. The reason for the price difference has to do with New Jersey regulations on who may perform the treatment.

The state of New Jersey appears to have a strong Medical Doctor’s lobby. Somehow, regulations were passed that require a doctor to pull the trigger for laser hair removal.
While regulations vary form state to state, nearly all other states allow for either a nurse or esthetician to perform the treatment under the direction of a doctor.

In Pennsylvania the regulations don’t require that the person firing the laser have any particular certification or background. (This is a good question to ask any laser hair removal provider you may be considering) To assure that Bella Medspa technicians meet high standards we require that they be an esthetician. Some of our technicians are also registered nurses. But all of our technicians, regardless of qualifications, must go through an extensive training program and be certified by our Medical director, Dr. Chris Porter.

So you can see why laser hair removal is more expensive in New Jersey. To pay a doctor to perform the treatment will cost top dollar. And this is why many New Jersey laser hair removal customers make that trip over the bridge to Philadelphia or Bucks County.
