Frequently Asked Questions
The information here is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Consult a licensed healthcare provider about your specific situation.
Do I need a referral to see a dermatologist in Montreal?
For medical dermatology (acne, eczema, mole checks), most provinces require a referral from your family doctor. Wait times are typically 3-12 months. For cosmetic procedures (Botox, fillers, laser), you can usually book directly without a referral.
How much does a dermatologist visit cost in Montreal?
Medical dermatology is covered by provincial health insurance with a doctor's referral. Cosmetic procedures are not covered: Botox $300-$600, fillers $500-$1,500, laser treatments $200-$800 per session, chemical peels $150-$400.
What's the difference between a dermatologist and an esthetician?
Dermatologists are medical doctors with 5+ years of specialized training who can diagnose diseases, prescribe medications, and perform surgery. Estheticians provide skin care treatments like facials and peels but cannot diagnose or prescribe. For medical skin concerns, you need a dermatologist.
How long is the wait to see a dermatologist?
In Canada, wait times range from 3-12 months for non-urgent referrals. Urgent cases (suspected skin cancer) are typically seen within 2-4 weeks. Cosmetic dermatology clinics often have shorter waits since they operate outside the public system.
When should I see a dermatologist vs. my family doctor?
See a dermatologist for: persistent acne not responding to treatment, changing moles, chronic skin conditions (psoriasis, eczema), hair loss, suspicious growths, or cosmetic concerns. Your family doctor can handle mild skin issues and refer you when needed.
