3.10 Cosmetic treatment

Treatment undergone for cosmetic or psychological reasons to improve your appearance, such as a re-modelled nose, facelift or cosmetic dentistry. This includes:

• dental implants to replace a sound natural tooth
• hair transplants for any reason
• treatment related to or arising from the removal of non-diseased, or surplus or fat tissue, whether or not it is needed for medical or psychological reasons
• any treatment or procedure to change the shape or appearance of your breast(s) whether or not it is needed for medical or psychological reasons:
• unless for reconstruction carried out as part of the original treatment for the cancer, when you have obtained our written consent before receiving the treatment (see “Reconstructive or remedial surgery” in this section).

Examples: We do not pay for breast reduction for backache, or gynaecomastia (the enlargement of breasts in men).
