Has anyone had a breast reduction or lypo for medical reasons?


are breast reductions free if you have a health card?? how painful is it and whats the recovery time like? does anyone know if they will do some small amounts of lypo for free on other parts of body if its for medical reason? I have such back ciatic nerve problems that somedays I can barely sit or lye down I know if I lose about 50 pounds I will be in way less pain, but the pain is so intense and so bad (like back labour) on a constant basis that I cant even exercise to lose the weight? any suggestions?

You can get it covered by insurance. I was in no pain after the surgery and I was back to work in two weeks. Full recovery was about four months.

Breast reductions may be covered by insurance if there is medical history/documentation to show that the size of your breasts is a causal factor for other health issues. The medical documentation should also show that a breast reduction will reduce or eliminate these medical condition(s).

I don't believe lipo is covered under any circumstances by insurance. But there's a first time for everything. It depends on your doctor and your insurance company.
