does insurance pay for micropigmentation?

Question

had breast reduction surgery. aerola needs some "touching up" will insurance pay?

Answer 1

I'd say no to micropigmentation being covered, because it is for cosmetic reasons. But I'm not 100% sure.

I know some girls who have had that done on a site I frequent, you could ask one of them... http://www.breasthealthonline.com

There is a post about it here: http://www.breasthealthonline.org/cgi-bin/mwf/topic_show.pl?tid=110733&pid=908663&hl=micropigmentation&hlm=phrase#908663

With her explanation of what occurs, I'd say no it is not covered by insurance.

Answer 2

Breast reduction surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.

Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

If it is medically necessary, yes. If it is cosmetic only, no.
