Is CoolSculpting ever covered by insurance?

CoolSculpting is not covered by insurance because it is a cosmetic procedure, however there is a discount offered based upon the treatment package.  Our office also offers care credit as a form of payment. 

Unfortunately this is not something covered by insurance. Coolsculpting is considered fully cosmetic. Although, lots of office do offer financing options through Care Credit or Green Sky. Both offer low financing and even 6 months with zero interest when paid in full.

Insurance does not cover this procedure because this is a cosmetic procedure. My office offers care credit to help with the cost.

Best of luck, Sheila Nazarian  

Thank you for your question. CoolSculpting is a cosmetic procedure and is unfortunately not covered by insurance. The price varies from clinic to clinic. Regards, 

CoolSculpting is considered to be an elective procedure as opposed to one that is medically necessary. Generally speaking the first requirement towards having insurance reimburse is that the procedure be medically necessary. With regard to pricing, in our office the average treatment plan ranges between $2,000.00 - $6,000.00 and would generally treat 1 - 4 areas twice. Each area generally sees about a 20% reduction in the fat layer per treatment so we generally see about a 40% reduction in the fat layer at the treatment sites after a two treatment protocol has been fulfilled. Hope that helped to answer your questions. Have a wonderful day.

The short answer is no. Insurance does not cover elective cosmetic treatments and that is what they classify Coolsculpting as. It's a great procedure, but it's not medically necassary.

Hi,It would be nice if it did!  No, unfortunately it is considered cosmetic and therefore not covered by any insurance company.  The pricing varies on area of country and by applicator so it is best to get an in-person consult in your area for an estimate.Warmly,Dr. Liu

CoolScultping is a noninvasive procedure that can reduce fat in unwanted areas. The procedure is considered cosmetic only and the cost range per procedure and area can vary by provider and by the area treated. You should get a consultation to see if you are a candidate and then they can give you the cost specific for your body.

Thank you for your question.Coolsculpting is not covered by insurance as it's considered an "elective" procedure.  Pricing depends on how many areas are treated and if multiple treatments are necessary.It will be in your best interest to visit with an office that can discuss options and pricing with you after in person evaluation.Best wishes.

Coolsculpting is an "elective" service and is not covered by insurance.  However, many Coolsculpting certified clinics offer financing options.  As the largest provider of Coolsculpting in NY state, our Lipo Spa clinics offer multiple payment options to our clients.  Most clients can expect to invest anywhere from $600-2,000 depending on the areas treated and the number of treatments your specialist recommends.PS- if you choose the Coolsculpting route, be sure to choose a provider who is certified and who has a lot of experience.  Not all providers are created equal and experience really matters with this type of treatment.
