Yes you can as long as it wasn't considered cosmetic surgery. I am sure that the people that did it can write up something saying it was for medical purposes.
Prior to 2015 I think it is you could have claimed cosmetic surgery as a medical expense (boob job etc.). Not so after 2015.
Also an interesting tidbit that a lot of people miss is that in Alberta, massages aren't a legitimate medical expense! So if you've been claiming them as medical expenses and you are audited, CRA will deny them.
On the medical expense topic...

Never thought to do that, instead I would just use it on random stuff (glasses, etc) at the end of the year...

I'm not sure if you're suggesting that getting reviewed for claiming medical expenses on your tax return is "highly unlikely", but if so, I respectfully disagree. The personally claimed items which are most frequently reviewed are tuition, medical and moving, especially if the amounts are drastically increased in any one year.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.
