Cost & Funding Assistance

The total cost for the LOCband treatment is: £1950.00.

We are able to offer 2 types of payment options:

1: Pay the full amount of £1950.00 at the time of the first scan and your decision to proceed with the fitting of a LOCband. Once the initial payment has been made there are no further charges or any hidden costs for the duration of your baby's treatment.

2: Pay by instalments, this allows the cost of treatment to be spread over 4 payments.

We have arranged this No Interest method of payment to assist parents by allowing the cost of the LOCband to be spread over a period of time.

The full cost of £1950.00 includes:

  • All of your baby's required appointments from start to end of treatment, no matter how many are required
  • The LOCband
  • Appropriate cleaning fluid for the LOCband
  • All correspondence/reports to your GP/Paediatrician to inform them of your baby's progress
  • Full telephone support.
  • Extra reviews at short notice.
