Had my initial Plastics consultation

So I had my plastics consult.. My surgeon said that she's had really good luck with insurances paying for most of the plastics..

We are trying for a 360 lift, I have good reason, cause I get rashes in the back where I sweat a lot (TMI, but butt crack area :( ). She also believes I don't need much in way of a breast lift, just removal of some skin to tighten them up.

She also thinks I don't need arms redone, but a little lipo she says will tighten my arm, and then I'm hoping for a little neck lift as well..

I'm so excited!

    Can I ask what insurances you have that approved the tummy tuck?

    I have BCBS Federal. My tummy is all skin now, and actually hurts when I run. We put in for a 360 lift, boob lift, and neck lift, and they only approved a paniculectomy (my surgeon does a tummy tuck, and includes a new belly button).

    Chrystee - I also have BCBS federal. If you could provide more information on what documentation you needed to provide to get the panni approved I would really appreciate it. Thanks and congrats!

    I didn't provide anything. My Doctors office did everything.
