*Informed financial consent fee breakdown: A fee ranging from ~ $590-$640 is charged at the time of your visit. You then receive a Medicare reimbursement ranging from ~ $280-$325. The final figure depends on whether this is a new visit or a review visit, and whether you have a valid Medicare referral, but the out-of-pocket fee remains similar. After your visit, a medication co-contribution fee of ~$40 will be charged by the Government for the injected medication. Combining these fees and rebates, the total out-of-pocket cost to you is approximately $350 for any visit where the Dermatologist performs an anti-sweat treatment.
