Financing for Plastics



Recommended Posts

So I've gone to a couple of plastic surgeons for consults and one Dr I was really really impressed with. He was actually really impressed with me as well. He stated that a full on Tummy Tuck might not be necessary because my abs are solid. I guess with tummy tucks they also do some Lipo but he told me I have no fat to lipo, even though another Dr wanted to lipo and I was wondering where and what she was going to suck out. I'm very bony just have excess skin hanging in the tummy area and my tatas have so south and not just for the winter. I was a 42 DDD to a 42 F depending on where I purchased my bras and now I'm a sagging 36C. My main priority right now is getting my girls back.

I've seen where people are getting financed for the sleeve surgery and would that financing go towards plastics too and who did you go through. I tried Care Credit through the Dr's office and got denied.

Any help with insurance covering this or financing would be greatly appricated

I think I have read some posts where some DRs can get any procedure covered by insurance. But most can't or won't. I think if you can get your insurance to pay for a panni, due to rashes and such, you can just pay the difference to get the full Tummy Tuck. That is what I plan to do if I really need one in the end.

My sleeve was finance through Mysurgeryloans.com give them a try it seems like they work with all types of credit if you're willing to pay the high interest rate. Good luck getting the girls back. I will get mine done too as soon as I reach my goal.

Thank u,

I see my WL surgeon on Thursday and his nurse who is the greatest said she's going to try and get primary care Dr on board to say it's medically necessary. My primary Dr won't do anyhting I suggest unless it's brought up by another Dr, he's very irritating on that aspect.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
