Please check with your FSA (flexible spending account) to see if this is allowed. I thought it was universal, but I know that with my current and previous employers you could not play for cosmetic surgery with FSA dollars. The only exception was lasix (sp?) because that is to correct a medical problem. I'll have to check the SPD when I get back to work to be sure. I am in HR, but benefits is not my thang.
