The cosmetic classification is unfortunately common with scar treatments, even when scars significantly impact quality of life. Most specialized clinics offer payment plans or financing options since they understand it's often not covered by insurance. Some people save up over time, others use medical credit cards with promotional interest rates. It's worth asking about package pricing if you need multiple sessions, as some places offer discounts for paying upfront for a series. During consultations, don't hesitate to discuss budget openly so they can work with you on a realistic plan.
