Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) Financing

The increasing popularity of cosmetic surgery has made available many new and convenient methods for financing treatment. For many, affording cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to enhance their appearance and improve their self-esteem is no longer an insurmountable obstacle. Today, traditional payment options, as well as financing, are offered by many surgeons to help ease the financial burden of many forms of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Below you will find information on some of the payment and financing options available to you, as well as instruction on the application process.

Eyelid Surgery Payment Options

Most surgeons offer the option of paying for eyelid surgery with cash, check, or major credit card. In some cases, when the surgery is not elective but is to be performed to correct an impairment of vision, some insurance providers will cover a portion, if not all, of the total cost of the procedure. The surgeons themselves may also contract with individual financing companies that allow you to utilize loan options to pay for your eyelid surgery. Some surgeons provide discounts when several procedures are performed at once. It is also a growing trend to give and receive cosmetic surgery as a gift.

Financing the Cost of Eyelid Surgery

When insurance will not provide the necessary coverage for your blepharoplasty procedure, and the cost is more than you are willing or able to manage out of pocket or with your pre-existing credit cards, financing may be an option. Many surgeons contract with various finance companies to provide patients the ability to pay for their procedure through the assistance of a qualified lender.
