Medical Luxury Detox Facility in Beverly Hills, CA
Before our patients can start to make lost in changes in their lives, they first need to break the physical addiction they have to the substance they abuse.
In many cases this requires a process called detox, which is the period after stopping using the substance, while the body works to clear it from the system.
Because addiction is both physical and mental, many patients experience some discomfort during this time. This is why our team is available around the clock to help our patients cope with this important process.

What is Medical Detox?
Medical detox is the medically supervised process of safely eliminating toxic substances, like drugs or alcohol, from the body while managing withdrawal symptoms and preventing complications. It is important because some substances can cause severe or even life-threatening withdrawal, and detox provides medical support with in many cases 24-hour monitoring to reduce discomfort, stabilize the body, and create a safe foundation for ongoing treatment.
What Happens During Medical Detox?
During medical detox, the primary goal is to safely remove drugs or alcohol from the body while managing withdrawal symptoms and stabilizing physical health. The process begins with a thorough assessment of the individual’s medical history, substance use, and any co-occurring conditions. Throughout detox, patients are monitored by a team of licensed medical professionals, including doctors (MDs or DOs), registered nurses (RNs), and sometimes physician assistants (PAs), often with 24-hour supervision in high-risk cases. Vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, and breathing are closely observed to ensure safety. Medications may be used to ease withdrawal symptoms like pain, nausea, anxiety, or insomnia, making the process more manageable. While withdrawal can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful, medical support significantly reduces the intensity and risk of complications. Emotional support and counseling are also provided to address cravings and anxiety, and once the person is stabilized, guidance is offered for the next steps in recovery, such as therapy, rehab programs, or outpatient care. Medical detox ensures that withdrawal is conducted as safely and comfortably as possible, laying the foundation for long-term recovery.
Do All Addictions Need Detox?
Not all addictions require medical detox. Detox is usually necessary for substances that can cause dangerous or severe withdrawal symptoms, such as alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and sometimes stimulants. For other addictions, like nicotine, marijuana, or behavioral addictions (such as gambling or internet addiction), withdrawal is generally less medically dangerous, so formal medical detox is often not required.
Signs Someone Needs Detox
Medical detox may be necessary when a person’s substance use has reached a point where stopping on their own could be dangerous or extremely uncomfortable. Recognizing the signs early can help ensure they get the safe, professional care they need. Common signs that someone may need detox include:
- Physical dependence – Experiencing strong withdrawal symptoms when trying to stop or cut down.
- Severe cravings – Feeling an intense urge to use the substance constantly.
- Health complications – Rapid weight loss, liver problems, heart issues, or other medical concerns related to substance use.
- Uncontrolled use – Inability to reduce or stop use despite wanting to.
- Risky behaviors – Engaging in unsafe activities while under the influence.
- Failed attempts to quit – Multiple unsuccessful attempts to stop without professional help.
- Psychological distress – Anxiety, depression, or agitation that worsens when not using the substance.

How Long Does Medical Detox Last?

- Alcohol: Usually 5 to 7 days, but severe cases may take longer.
- Opioids (Fentanyl, Heroin): Typically 5 to 10 days, depending on the type of opioid and usage history.
- Benzodiazepines: Can last 1 to 2 weeks or more due to the risk of prolonged withdrawal symptoms.
- Stimulants (cocaine, methamphetamine): Often shorter physically, 2 to 4 days, but psychological cravings can persist longer.
How Much Does Medical Detox Cost in Los Angeles, CA?
The cost of medical detox can vary widely depending on the type of program, level of care, length of stay, and location of the facility. Outpatient detox programs, which provide less intensive care, generally cost between $250 and $800 per day, totaling around $1,000 to $5,600 for a typical short program. Inpatient medical detox, which includes 24-hour supervision, usually ranges from $500 to $800 per day, or $3,000 to $10,000 for a full course. Hospital-based or intensive care detox can cost $5,000 to $10,000 or more, while luxury or specialized rapid detox programs may exceed $10,000. Factors that influence the cost include the level of medical supervision required, the length of stay, the type of facility, geographic location, and whether insurance coverage or financial assistance is available.
Is Medical Detox Covered by Insurance?
Yes, medical detox is often covered by health insurance because substance use disorder treatment is considered an essential health benefit under current U.S. law, meaning many plans must include detox services as part of behavioral health coverage. Coverage depends on your individual plan, whether the facility is in‑network, if the services are deemed medically necessary, and any requirements like prior authorization. Many popular insurance providers may be able to cover the cost of detox in Los Angeles like: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Ambetter, and more.
What Happens After Medical Detox?
Medical detox is only the first step in the recovery process. Once the body is physically stabilized and withdrawal symptoms are managed, the focus shifts to ongoing treatment for addiction, which addresses the psychological, behavioral, and social aspects of substance use. This typically includes:
- Inpatient or residential rehab – A structured program where individuals live at a treatment facility and receive therapy, counseling, and support.
- Outpatient treatment programs – Flexible therapy sessions while living at home, which may include counseling, group therapy, and medication management.
- Therapy and counseling – Individual, group, or family therapy to address triggers, coping strategies, and underlying mental health issues.
- Support groups – Peer support such as 12-step programs, SMART Recovery, or other recovery communities to maintain motivation and accountability.
- Medication-assisted treatment (if needed) – Medications to reduce cravings or prevent relapse for substances like opioids or alcohol.
- Aftercare planning – Long-term strategies for relapse prevention, lifestyle changes, and continued support to maintain sobriety.
