Hello! I'm down 26 lbs and was wondering about my breats today. Do allaen need a breast lift? are there any exercises or tricks to prevent needing surgery? I know that insurance companies don't pay for plastic surgery.

From what I understand it depends on your genes, weight, skin elasticity and luck!

There was no exercise or cream that would have helped mine... I was overweight for most of my adult life, bore a child and lost 220 lbs. and the fact that i was overr 50 added to the orry state of affairs..

Even heavy I wasn't ever large chested...I was only a C cup because of the fat.... So I was doomed.

In December I had the girls lifted and since after all the skin was removed I would have been left with an A cup I added the augmentation. The results are picture perfect and I don't regret it at all.

I consulted with a plastic surgeon and he said my ins shld cover. I was a 46 DD before sx. I lost 110 lbs at maintenance stage now and now I'm 38 c. They look the same as before saggy but not full if you know what I mean. He said if i still have back pain and still get indent marks on shlder that will qualify me. Just had unexpected back sx so maybe this summer will look further into it. Just a FYI I had my yearly mammogram today and since weight loss they had to take extra pics to get a new baseline something I wld of not thought to tell technician but she noticed weight loss and said that makes a difference when radiologist reads films.

Any word back from your insurance yet?

you could complain about ur back to get ur breast lefted

insurance might pay

Insurance will pay for a breast reduction/lift if proven it is medically necessary....just as jenc87 stated above. I did have dents from my bras in my shoulders, as well as shoulder/neck/back pain from my size F breasts & insurance paid for mine....any my TT!!

I had a friend get 2 lifts through insurance. All u need is documentation have ur dr refer u to physical therapy, go to a chiropractor & some type of spine dr. Have them all write letters & that should do it. I found 2 drs here in atl that are so familiar w/ working w/ ins. To get it done. They will pretty much know what to tell the ins co. To get u approved. Im in the process now

ur results is what im hoping for bc i am a 38DD but they r saggy & i dont want to be small i just hope after they lift me & remove the excess skin ill look about the same except the girls will be sitting up on their own to like a 36C/D?
