My local beauty salon, for example, offers facials for acne prone, dry, oily, sensitive, and mature skin. A typical facial has the following steps: 1  Deep cleansing with professional products. 2  Thorough skin analysis under a magnifying lamp.  Exfoliation and opening of the pores with a steamer directed towards the face.
1 According to Vimo.com, a health care cost comparison website, the average list price for a kidney transplant is $143,500, while the average negotiated price, through a health insurance company, is just under $33,500. Patients of any age with kidney failure that requires dialysis are eligible for Medicare, which might pay up to 80% of the costs of a transplant; however, Medicare covers only 36 months of anti-rejection drugs.
Not to be overlooked is the fact that a transplant is tremendously more cost-effective than dialysis. While a transplant is by no means inexpensive, it is far less costly than dialysis: The average cost of a transplant--which can extend a patient's life by ten to twenty or more years--is between $100,000 and $259,000.ialysis can do only about 10% of the work that a functioning kidney can do and frequently causes other severe health problems such as anemia, infection, bone disease, heart disease, and nerve damage.
