it. It's medical. Breasts large enough to warrant a reduction surgery are large enough to interfere with daily functioning, and cause back trouble, posture trouble, dents in shoulders (from heavy breasts pulling on bra straps), and other medical problems.
Nose job will be covered by insurance occasionally, if it is primarily to correct breathing difficulty.
Braces - covered by insurance. This affects the bite of the mouth.
None of those things are always, truly cosmetic. Although there is a cosmetic component to them.
Things that are truly cosmetic, for which insurance never covers, as far as I know: breast augmentation, liposuction, tummy tuck. Things like that.
