Waxing Against Laser Hair Removal Costs

Two hair removal quotes can look alike and still total very differently. A waxing total is the per-visit price times the number of visits. A laser total is the price per session times the number of sessions in the plan, plus any touch-up fee. Set both over the same period before comparing them, and read every input off a written quote, because this page prints no waxing or laser price: none is sourced.
Under the formula sits the data for 14 Upper East Side providers, each with its category count and its Google numbers.
Which count sorts this table
Rank follows the category count named on the next line, from highest to lowest. Apollo House's count of 15 was read on apollohousenyc.com on 2026-10-16, and the table names the site behind every other count.
The ledger line behind the order reads "Number of 15 longevity and wellness services offered": a point per category on the provider's own site.

Filling in the formula for each provider
The count includes a laser and energy skin category, yet it does not say which providers list that category or which body areas they treat. Worth a line in your budget notes for the questions to bring: the American Academy of Dermatology laser hair removal FAQs.
From the top: Apollo House at 15, Georgia Louise Beauty Longevity Atelier at 7, Youtherapy Medspa at 6, ReBalance NYC at 5, then Renaissance Medical by Dr. Yixiu Zheng and Skinney Medspa at 4 each. For each, get the per-session price, the session count and the touch-up fee, then fill in the formula above.
Extension Health - Midtown, Hamptons BioMed - Upper East Side, Modern Age Upper East Side, Timeless MedSpa NYC and VJ MedSpa tie at 3. SkinTight MedSpa and Thérapie Clinic Upper East Side tie at 2. On the page read, MD Longevity listed none of the counted categories, which puts it last.
Check what else is printed on a hair removal quote:
- With an IV item attached, ask what the quote comes to without it.
- With an injectable item attached, ask what the follow-up visit involves.
- With a chiropractic item attached, ask how many visits the quote assumes.
- With a laser skin treatment attached beyond hair removal, ask what it is for and how many sessions it assumes. For that line, the American Academy of Dermatology page on skin conditions that lasers can treat and the Cleveland Clinic page on laser skin resurfacing, laser types, skin conditions and what to expect explain the treatment.
Waxing and laser totals over the same months
Neither waxing nor laser is called cheaper here, because no price is held for either. Of everything printed here, only the category counts are sourced. Apollo House shows all 15 on apollohousenyc.com, the most of any provider in the table.
Work the sum. Get the per-visit waxing price and the laser session price, session count and touch-up fee in writing. Total both over the same period and compare the totals. Have a licensed clinician weigh whether laser suits your skin and hair.
