Financing — HEVA Health

HEVA Health offers patient financing for elective surgery. Financing is provided by HEVA Health, not by this website or by The Ariel Center. Approval, loan terms, interest rates, and monthly payment amounts are determined by HEVA Health based on the applicant's individual credit profile.

Important Disclosures About Financing

Most US and international insurance plans do not cover elective cosmetic procedures. In rare medically-documented cases (severe rashes, infections, or functional impairment from excess skin), partial reimbursement may be considered. This should be verified directly with the insurer in writing.
