What Options Do You Have to Pay for Treatment?

Our financing and insurance options give patients the flexibility to pay for their surgeries and treatments in a way that matches their budgets and lifestyles. Financing options such as Care Credit® and Alpheon® mean patients can pay for their treatments in affordable monthly installments.

We also accept insurance from a number of providers. Depending on your healthcare provider and the treatment you choose, part or all of your costs may be covered by plastic surgery insurance.

How Much Will Treatment or Surgery Cost?

Your cost can vary significantly based on the treatment, procedure, or surgery you choose to have; your treatment goals; and your eligibility for insurance coverage. During your initial consultation, we will discuss all these variables, so we can tell you exactly how much you can expect to pay. We can also walk you through your financing options to help you choose the option that is best for you.

CareCredit® is a healthcare credit card that you can use to pay for cosmetic procedures and many other healthcare-related services.

Alphaeon® is similar to CareCredit® in that it comes in the form of a credit card and allows you to finance many cosmetic services at your convenience. However, Alphaeon® advertises a wider range of payment options, which may give you more flexibility when it comes to paying for treatments and services. Unlike CareCredit®, Alphaeon® can only be used at plastic surgery and dermatology practices.

What Kinds of Plastic Surgery Procedures Are Covered by Insurance?

Most forms of plastic surgery are elective procedures, which means they aren’t typically covered by health insurance. In some cases, certain procedures may be partially or fully covered. Whether or not your surgery is eligible for insurance depends on the procedure you’re having and the reason you’re having it. It may also depend on who your insurance provider is.

In most cases, for insurance to pay for plastic surgery, the procedure must be either:

  • Reconstructive, or
  • Essential to preserving or improving your quality of life or bodily function

It can’t be a procedure that’s performed purely for cosmetic reasons.

For instance, insurance doesn’t cover the cost of breast implants for a woman who wants to increase her breast size. However, for a woman who has had a mastectomy to remove breast cancer, insurance will cover the cost of any breast reconstruction surgery she needs to replace the lost breast.

Some other instances where plastic surgery might be covered by insurance include:

Abdominal surgery (e.g. tummy tuck): If performed to remove excess skin that causes health problems such as back pain, rashes, or skin irritation

Breast surgery: If performed to reduce breast size or correct asymmetry that’s causing back problems or other health issues, or a breast reduction for men with gynecomastia

Ear, nose, or facial surgery: If performed to correct birth defects or deformities caused by injury, or disease. For instance, if you have a nasal issue such as a deviated septum, your health insurance may cover the cost of surgery if this issue causes breathing problems.

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery): If eyelid drooping causes vision problems

How Can I Get My Insurance to Pay for Plastic Surgery?

Regardless of the reason you need plastic surgery, there’s no guarantee your health insurance provider will agree to cover the cost. Therefore, it’s always important to confirm your coverage with your provider before having any surgery, especially if you’re depending on insurance to cover the cost. To confirm your coverage:

  1. Call your insurance company:
    • Find out what plastic surgery coverage you have.
    • Find out what documentation you need to supply to have your surgery covered.
    • Find out if you have full or partial coverage for the procedure and what your deductible is.
    • Find out if any needed medications, such as painkillers or antibiotics, are covered by your insurance.
  2. Speak to your plastic surgeon:
    • Get an estimate of the cost of your surgery.
    • Get a list of any painkillers or antibiotics you’ll need for your recovery.
    • Obtain any needed documentation.

Be sure to get confirmation of coverage in writing from your health insurance provider before going ahead with the surgery.

Note: When full insurance coverage is declined because surgery is being performed for both cosmetic and medical reasons, some insurance providers may be willing to pay part of the cost of the surgery.
