What is LaserAway?
LaserAway is a national chain of aesthetic clinics.
It says it has over 200 locations nationwide — a figure from its own homepage, read in October 2026 — and it says its first clinic opened in West Hollywood, California in 2005.
Its own timeline says the chain then opened its first out-of-state clinic in Scottsdale in 2012, a 50th location in 2019 and a 100th, in Honolulu, in 2022.
LaserAway calls itself an "aesthetic dermatology clinic—not a med spa." The treatments on its pricing page fall into five groups: laser hair removal; injectables (Botox, Xeomin and Juvéderm fillers); skin treatments (Clear + Brilliant, Potenza RF microneedling, SkinPen, HydraFacial and Thermage FLX or XTherma); CoolSculpting; and laser tattoo removal.
That menu places LaserAway in the chain landscape our all med spa chains guide maps out: it goes beyond laser hair removal into injectables and skin treatments, and it publishes prices instead of selling by quote alone — the contrast with Milan Laser comes later in this page.
Its staffing model, in the chain's own words, is covered in the legit section below.
Where are LaserAway locations?
The count LaserAway published on its homepage when we read it in October 2026 was "over 200+ locations nationwide." That figure is the chain talking about itself, and it moves as locations open and close.
We have not verified a state-by-state breakdown, so we won't estimate one; the chain's own site is the live source for whether there is a clinic near you.
The dated milestones give the footprint's shape: West Hollywood first in 2005, Scottsdale as the first clinic outside California in 2012, a 50th location in 2019 and the 100th — Honolulu — in 2022, all per LaserAway's own history page.
LaserAway milestones, per LaserAway
| Year | Milestone |
|---|---|
| 2005 | First clinic, West Hollywood, California |
| 2012 | First out-of-state clinic, Scottsdale |
| 2019 | 50th location |
| 2022 | 100th location, Honolulu |
How much does LaserAway charge?
LaserAway publishes menu prices online, which not every chain does — Milan Laser, for one, says it sells by personalized quote instead of publishing package prices.
LaserAway's pricing page, read on October 16, 2026, prices laser hair removal by treatment area, at $99 to $649 per treatment depending on the area, available as single sessions or packages of 3, 8 or 10.
The rest of the menu is priced by product type: injectables per unit (Botox, Xeomin) or per syringe and per treatment area (Juvéderm); skin treatments per treatment, with six-session packages on Clear + Brilliant, Potenza, SkinPen and HydraFacial and a two-treatment package on Thermage; CoolSculpting per treatment with volume discounts; and laser tattoo removal by tattoo size, in packages of 3, 10 or 16.
Two caveats come from LaserAway's own page: it states that "prices may vary by location" and directs you to book a consultation for a personalized quote.
A time-limited "70% off laser hair removal" promotion was also running when we read the page in October 2026, so the sale price on screen was not the regular published price.
Every figure in the next section is the regular published price, dated.
LaserAway prices by treatment
Here is the menu as published on October 16, 2026.
Every figure is LaserAway's own, and any location's actual price can differ.
| Treatment | Published price | Package price |
|---|---|---|
| Laser hair removal, by area | $99–$649 per treatment | Packages of 3, 8 or 10 sessions |
| Botox | $15 per unit | $10 per unit in a 300-unit bank |
| Xeomin | $12 per unit | $7 per unit in a 300-unit bank |
| Juvéderm, lips | $450 per full syringe | — |
| Juvéderm, face | $450–$900 per treatment | — |
| Juvéderm, cheeks | $750–$1,500 per treatment | — |
| Clear + Brilliant, face | $500 per treatment | $375 each in a 6-pack |
| Potenza RF microneedling, face | $750 per treatment | $562.50 each in a 6-pack |
| SkinPen, face | $400 per treatment | $300 each in a 6-pack |
| HydraFacial | $200 per treatment | $170 each in a 6-pack |
| Thermage FLX or XTherma, face | $1,500 per treatment | $1,200 each for 2 treatments |
| CoolSculpting | $550 per treatment | 25% savings at 4–7 treatments, 50% at 8+ |
| Laser tattoo removal, quarter size | $200 per treatment | $82 each in a 16-pack |
| Laser tattoo removal, dollar-bill size | $420 per treatment | $169 each in a 16-pack |
Two notes on reading it.
Botox units and Xeomin units are not interchangeable between the two products, so the $15 and $12 per-unit prices are not a like-for-like comparison.
And this is one chain's menu, not a national average for these treatments — for the laser hair removal piece of it, see our laser hair removal guide.
Does LaserAway have a membership or packages, and is it worth it?
Package pricing runs through every group on the menu we read except the Juvéderm fillers: laser hair removal in bundles of 3, 8 or 10 sessions; six-packs for Clear + Brilliant, Potenza, SkinPen and HydraFacial; a two-treatment package for Thermage; bundles of 3, 10 or 16 for tattoo removal; volume discounts on CoolSculpting; and 300-unit "banks" for Botox and Xeomin that lower the per-unit price.
A monthly membership is a different question, and our research could not confirm whether LaserAway offers one.
If a location offers one, get the terms in writing before you sign.
At least one competitor sells them — Sev Skin's laser hair removal memberships start at $15 per month, for example.
As for whether a package is worth it, the menu alone can't answer that.
What the published numbers do show: wherever the menu lists both, the package price per treatment is lower than the single-treatment price — what it doesn't tell you is whether you will use the sessions.
The decision turns on three things the published prices don't cover: how many sessions you will actually complete, whether unused sessions expire, and what happens to a package if you move.
We have not verified LaserAway's expiry, refund or transfer terms, so ask before you prepay.
On financing, the pricing page's own example is a 12-month deferred-interest program "for well-qualified borrowers only," subject to credit approval: no interest on the promotional balance if it is paid in full within the promotional period, otherwise interest of up to 32.99% APR.
The page we read did not name the lender.
If the promotional balance is not paid in full inside the promo window, the interest is charged from the purchase date — in LaserAway's example, at up to 32.99% APR. The CFPB found consumers paid $1 billion in deferred interest on healthcare purchases between 2018 and 2020.
What do LaserAway reviews say?
We don't publish an aggregate LaserAway rating, and our research didn't collect one: a score for a 200-plus-location chain averages the reviews of that many separate clinics, so it can't tell you how the clinic near you performs.
We have no verified data on review themes or complaint rates for the chain either.
What we can add is the rulebook reviews now play under.
The FTC's Consumer Reviews and Testimonials rule (16 CFR Part 465) bans fake reviews, paying or giving incentives for reviews that express a particular sentiment, undisclosed insider reviews, company-controlled "independent" review sites, and suppressing negative reviews through threats or by hiding reviews based on rating.
The rule was announced August 14, 2024 and took effect October 21, 2024, and it lets the FTC seek civil penalties against knowing violators.
Practically: read recent reviews for the specific location you are considering, weight detailed accounts over one-line scores, and treat every review — good or bad — as one person's experience rather than an outcome you should expect.
Is LaserAway legit? Who performs treatments there?
LaserAway's own description of its staffing: every treatment is performed by a registered nurse, nurse practitioner or physician associate, all clinics are overseen by board-certified dermatologists (the pages we read do not name the board), and it uses no estheticians, cosmetologists or technicians.
That is the chain describing itself, and we have not verified staffing clinic by clinic.
It also brands itself an "aesthetic dermatology clinic—not a med spa." No federal law defines "med spa," so the label carries no single federal meaning; whether a provider is regulated as a medical practice, and who may own it, is determined by each state's medical-practice, nursing and corporate-practice rules, and some states add med-spa-specific statutes or registries on top.
What LaserAway says
- Every treatment is performed by an RN, NP or physician associate
- No estheticians, cosmetologists or technicians
What we have not verified
- Staffing clinic by clinic
- Which board certifies the overseeing dermatologists
- A full enforcement history; our FTC and state AG search was not exhaustive
For injectables, the baseline question is the same anywhere.
AmSpa says injecting a botulinum toxin is the practice of medicine because a prescription drug is used on living tissue, so it must be done by a physician, an independent-practice nurse practitioner or another licensed professional acting within their scope, under rules that vary by state.
On devices: LaserAway, Milan Laser and Sev Skin describe their devices as FDA-cleared (510(k) clearance), which is a different standard from FDA approval.
On enforcement, we can only report what we found: one combined search of FTC and state attorney-general sources on October 16, 2026 turned up no enforcement action against LaserAway or Milan Laser.
That search was not exhaustive — court dockets, among other sources, were not searched — so it is not a clean bill of health, and it is not a finding that nothing has ever happened.
FDA warned on April 16, 2024 that counterfeit Botox had been found in multiple states and given for cosmetic purposes, causing adverse events including hospitalizations. FDA advises confirming with your provider that the product comes from an authorized source and asking whether the provider is licensed and trained to give it. CDC's line is blunter: "If in doubt, don't get the injection."
LaserAway vs similar chains and independent med spas near you
Milan Laser is the closest comparison: it calls itself the largest laser hair removal company in the nation and says it has over 400 locations nationwide (its own count, October 2026).
It sells differently: Milan says it does not publish package prices online — you get a personalized quote — and it offers installment plans it says start at 0% APR, which may come from third-party lenders.
Its Unlimited Package, which Milan includes with every body area purchased, is described by Milan as unlimited treatments for life on that area at no additional cost, and Milan says the average person needs 7 to 10 treatments to be "up to 95% hair free" — while Milan's own disclaimer notes that "permanent results" does not necessarily mean the elimination of all hairs in the treatment area.
LaserAway, by contrast, publishes a menu and sells fixed-count packages.
Sev Skin is the smaller, membership-flavored option: it says it has more than 70 US studios — its own location selector listed 77 in 15 states, 28 of them in California — with laser hair removal memberships from $15 per month and single sessions from $29.
Three chains, in their own words (Oct 2026)
| LaserAway | Milan Laser | Sev Skin | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Locations | Over 200 | Over 400 | More than 70 studios |
| Pricing | Published menu | Personalized quote | Memberships from $15 per month; sessions from $29 |
| How it sells | Fixed-count packages | Unlimited Package with every body area | Memberships and single sessions |
Independent med spas are the other option: AmSpa's 2024 industry survey estimated 10,488 US med spas in 2023, 81% of them single-location, but its public summary does not say how individually owned franchise studios were counted, so that figure does not tell you how many med spas belong to chains.
What our research does not establish is whether a chain or an independent is cheaper or better for a given treatment.
The workable comparison is a dated published menu against quotes from independents near you — and the same staffing question for either: who will perform the treatment?

MedSpaStandard is a guide, not a clinic — we don't take bookings.
Getting a real price from LaserAway starts where its own pricing page points: book a consultation for a personalized quote, since prices vary by location.
Four questions to bring with you, each drawn from the sources above:
- Who will perform my treatment, and what is their license? FDA's advice is to ask whether the provider is licensed and trained to give the injection.
- Is the product from an authorized source?
- What is the total package price, and what happens to sessions I don't use?
- What are the financing terms — deferred interest, or a true 0% plan?
Then compare the quote against the published menu above, and against one or two independents near you, before you prepay anything.
Frequently asked questions
Is LaserAway a med spa?
LaserAway describes itself as an "aesthetic dermatology clinic—not a med spa." The label is the chain's own branding: no federal law defines "med spa," whether a provider is regulated as a medical practice, and who may own it, is determined by each state's medical-practice, nursing and corporate-practice rules, and some states add med-spa-specific statutes or registries.
AmSpa's position is that med spas are medical practices.
What matters for you is the law where the clinic sits and who performs your treatment.
How many LaserAway locations are there?
LaserAway's homepage said over 200 locations nationwide when we read it in October 2026 — the chain's own count, and one that changes as locations open and close.
For history, LaserAway says its first clinic opened in West Hollywood in 2005 and its 100th, in Honolulu, in 2022.
The chain's own site has the current location list.
Are LaserAway's lasers FDA-approved?
No — and neither are the devices of Milan Laser or Sev Skin, the other chains compared here: all three describe their devices as FDA-cleared, meaning 510(k) clearance, which is a different standard from FDA approval.
Ask any provider which device they would use on you and what that device is cleared for, and be skeptical of any marketing that says "approved" for a laser.
Does LaserAway offer payment plans?
Its pricing page shows a financing example: a 12-month deferred-interest program for well-qualified borrowers only, subject to credit approval — no interest on the promotional balance if it is paid in full within the promotional period, otherwise interest of up to 32.99% APR.
The page we read did not name the lender.
Deferred interest differs from a true 0% plan: if the balance is not paid off in the window, interest applies from the purchase date.
The CFPB found consumers paid $1 billion in deferred interest on healthcare purchases from 2018 to 2020.
Ask the clinic which plans apply.
