Answer: Botox or Dysport not covered by insurance carrier for cosmetic usage
I would not waste time and energy attempting to get insurance coverage for Botox or Dysport for cosmetic indications, e.g. wrinkle reduction on forehead. Even with excessive sweating, which is a FDA-approved indication, you may have great difficulty in getting coverage with certain insurance carrier. On the other hand, if you have flexible spending account via your employer and had set aside enough fund last November, you may be able to get some pre-tax deduction if you can obtain a letter of medical necessity for medical indication such as excessive sweating or migraines.

Answer: Botox for frown lines is not covered by insurance Botox, when used for cosmetic improvement, is not a covered service. Insurers focus on functional imorovement as a criterion for coverage and the use of Botox for facial rejuvenation is inapplicable to this definition, Botox is not an expensive procedure and I would encourage you to consult with a plastic surgeon about it's estimated cost.

Botox is not covered for cosmetic applications. Insurance may cover necessary and functional medical applications of Botox, but not to change a person's appearance.

Answer: Insurance and Botox
Quite simply, No. Insurance companies are not dumb. Gone are the days they they cover procedures without asking. Take rhinoplasty for example. Patients still come in thinking that the insurance company is going to pay for their cosmetic rhinoplasty. Likewise, they are not going to pay for your Botox. So, my suggesting is to not waste your time with the issue. Good luck.

Answer: Insurance coverage of Botox
Unfortunately, insurance company consider Botox as cosmetic treatment just like facelift. However, certain conditions that can be treated with Botox may be covered by health insurance. Conditions such as migraine headaches and excess sweating (hyperhidrosis) may be covered. Check your health insurance policy.
