Will I Qualify for Insurance Coverage on a Blepharoplasty Procedure? (photo)

March 14, 2013
Asked By:keene1bc

I am 23 and I've had droopy eyelids for as long as I can remember and it just seems to be getting worse. It's mainly my right eye that droops the worst and sometimes I notice that my right eyebrow is lower than my left eyebrow. Judging from my picture.. do you think it's at all possible I will qualify for insurance coverage? Would I be better off just getting botox? Thank you!
