   The answer to your question is going to depend on if it is "cosmetic surgery" or is it medically necessary. Medicare and all health insurance policies have strict regulations about paying for "cosmetic surgery" and then what happens if you have complications from the suregery? I would recommend you rule out "cosmetic surgery" because once the invasion is made it exposes you to all the possiblities of infection or other complications. You can go to www.medicare.gov and type the procedure into the inquiry window and see what medicare says
