Healthcare for electrolysis

At Golden Touch, we believe that everyone deserves access to effective, lasting hair removal solutions. That’s why we’re proud to partner with Kaiser Permanente and the Veterans Affairs (VA) as an approved provider of medically necessary electrolysis treatments.

If you are a Kaiser or VA patient and have been prescribed or referred for permanent hair removal due to a medical condition (such as gender-affirming care, pilonidal cysts, PCOS, or pre-surgical hair removal), your treatments may be covered by insurance.

How to Get Started

  1. Obtain a Referral or Prescription
    To be eligible for insurance-covered electrolysis, you must have a formal referral from your primary care provider or specialist. This must outline the medical necessity of the treatment.

  2. Verify Eligibility
    Once you have your referral, contact your insurance provider to confirm that Golden Touch is an in-network provider and that your treatments will be covered.

  3. Schedule a Consultation with Golden Touch
    Bring your referral and insurance information to your initial consultation. We’ll review your treatment plan, confirm coverage, and help you understand what to expect throughout the process.

  4. Begin Treatment
    After approval, your personalized electrolysis sessions can begin. Electrolysis is the only FDA-approved method for permanent hair removal, and we tailor each treatment to your individual needs and medical goals.

Important Information

  • Insurance only covers medically necessary electrolysis—cosmetic hair removal is not eligible for reimbursement.

  • A valid referral is required before we can begin insurance-covered services.

  • VA and Kaiser patients should coordinate with their care teams to initiate the referral process.

  • If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, we’re happy to help guide you through the process.

At Golden Touch, we are committed to compassionate care and excellence in every treatment. Let us help you navigate your coverage so you can focus on feeling confident and comfortable in your skin.
