How to get insurance to pay for vaginal rejuvenation?
Most insurers only cover vaginal rejuvenation if it is medically necessary—such as for pelvic organ prolapse, trauma, or severe symptoms impacting quality of life. Elective or cosmetic procedures are not usually covered.
Detailed Medical Explanation
To be considered for insurance coverage, you’ll need a specialist referral and medical documentation showing the procedure is necessary for health—not cosmetic—reasons. Examples include surgical repair after childbirth trauma, prolapse, or functional impairment (such as severe incontinence). Each insurer and country has different criteria, so consult your policy or call your insurer’s pre-authorisation team. Cosmetic treatments for tightening or appearance are typically excluded.

Clinical Context
Ask your provider for a full report and referral. Submit all documentation to your insurer for review. Always confirm what is and isn’t covered before proceeding.
Evidence-Based Approaches
Insurers and public systems require proof of medical necessity. Self-funding is the norm for cosmetic-only treatments. RCOG: Vaginal surgery funding.
