Prosthetics Are NOT
Cosmetics
When children lose their hair, whether a result of medication or illness, the change in their appearance can drastically alter their self-image and negatively affect their self-esteem. It is not just about the hair; it is about social acceptance, a sense of belonging, and fitting in. Most insurance companies nationwide do not recognize the need to cover hair pieces for those with medical hair loss. Wigs are considered an aesthetic; a cosmetic “want” rather than a Cranial Prosthetic “necessity.
