It may be extremely difficult to get cosmetic surgery on the National Health Service. Many would say that the health service simply cannot afford to offer cosmetic surgery.

If you need reconstructive surgery, such as after mastectomy, then you would be considered for surgery including cosmetic improvement. Surgery purely for vanity reasons is likely to be rejected at most, if not all, NHS Hospitals

Do you not think that the NHS should pay for cosmetic surgery?

I think that there are lots of examples of plastic surgery that the NHS should pay for - for example removal of moles that may become cancerous, breast implants for women who have lost theirs to cancer, labiaplasty for people who have long labia that cause pain, skin grafts for people who have been burned, surgery for people who have been involved in accidents. When it is a health benefit it is important for NHS to support plastic surgery, it's when it is purely about a person wanting to change how they look for vanity sake that NHS shouldn't pay.
