Follow-up cost insurance

What happens if follow-up treatment is needed after cosmetic surgery? Follow-up cost insurance can protect you against the costs.

Why cover can make sense

Even with careful planning and professional execution, complications after cosmetic surgery can never be completely ruled out, for example secondary bleeding, seromas (fluid accumulations), infections, thromboses or wound healing problems. Aesthetic procedures are generally not medically necessary. German statutory health insurers can therefore reclaim the costs of follow-up treatment in whole or in part from the patient under § 52(2) SGB V. Follow-up cost insurance can cover these financial consequences, also after gynaecomastia surgery, liposuction or eyelid surgery abroad.
