FAQ
Does TLC take insurance?
Yes. Our insurance team pursues coverage for medically necessary lipedema surgery for patients with PPO plans. We cannot pursue coverage with HMOs, Medicare, or Medicaid.
Do you offer financing if insurance doesn’t cover everything?
Yes. We partner with third-party financing to offer flexible monthly payments, and many patients use HSA/FSA funds for eligible expenses. We’ll provide transparent estimates and guide you through applications and timelines.
Do patients travel to Beverly Hills for lipedema surgery?
Absolutely. As a national leader in lipedema treatment, we see patients from around the U.S. and world. Our concierge team shares vetted hotels, recovery suites, transportation, and sample itineraries for consult, surgery, and follow-ups. Virtual visits are available for out-of-town patients.
