Cranial Prosthesis & Medical Wig FAQs

Medical-grade wigs are designed with comfort, fit, and a natural appearance in mind. They often feature softer materials, breathable caps, and construction suitable for sensitive scalps.

A medical wig, also called a cranial prosthesis, is specifically designed for individuals experiencing medical hair loss. These wigs prioritize scalp comfort, secure fit, breathability, and natural appearance for sensitive skin and long-term wear.

Regular fashion wigs are primarily cosmetic and are not typically designed for medical conditions, scalp sensitivity, or insurance eligibility.

Medical wigs may also qualify for insurance reimbursement when prescribed by a healthcare provider.

A prescription is often recommended if you plan to seek insurance reimbursement for your cranial prosthesis. Many insurance providers require documentation from your physician indicating medical hair loss due to chemotherapy, alopecia, or another qualifying condition.

If you do not have a prescription yet, we can help explain what information is typically needed before your appointment.

Many insurance providers may offer partial or full reimbursement for cranial prostheses when hair loss is related to a medical condition. Coverage varies depending on your insurance plan and provider.

We recommend contacting your insurance company to verify benefits for “cranial prosthesis” coverage. BNB Medical Wigs can assist by providing documentation, receipts, and guidance to help simplify the reimbursement process whenever possible.
