Tummy Tuck and C Section Cut and Financing

I have a bikini c section cut. It looks just like a crease but how does this work when I want to get a tummy tuck. Will there be a problem? Also we have something called Care Credit for those who cant afford to pay for the surgery all at once here in Chicago. I dont know if this is all over but what other ways can I finance it. Did insurance by any chance cover you guys. (Fat Chance I know, but I wanted to still ask)

I can't answer all your questions, but I do know that there are insurances that will pay for plastic surgery if it is deemed medically necessary. All you need to do is call your insurance to find out if they cover it if it is "medically necessary". Then find a good qualified surgeon that takes your insurance, and then they can answer your questions about the C-section. Good luck I hope this helps. Oh ask your insurance if you need a referral too.

My insurance will cover a tummy tuck an breast redution if deemed necessary- My doctor just needs to document if I have rashed where my belly sags and bak problems from my breast being too big for my size. He has been documenting the rashes I have been getting from being overweight for over a year now, so hopefully when it is time it will all go through :)
