Breast Augmentation a Tax Deduction?

According to a recent article on Kiplinger.com, breast augmentation made the list of "Top 11 Oddball Tax Deductions," coming in at number 7.

The deduction was claimed by "Chesty Love" a stripper who underwent breast augmentation to increase her tips--as well as her chest size to a whopping 56-FF. A Tax Court judge allowed the deduction of the cost of her surgery, equating the implants to stage props. Unfortunately, Ms. Love later tripped and ruptured one of her implants.

Other crazy deductions that made the list included pet food, body oil, a trip to Bermuda, beer, a swimming pool and a private airplane.

If you are considering breast augmentation, for a tax deduction or any other reason, San Francisco breast augmentation surgeon, Dr. Roy Kim, offers great information about the procedure, recovery and risks on his website.
