5'2, 115lbs, 28i, Am I A Candidate For Insurance Covered Breast Reduction?

I'm large chested. I love my breasts but now that I'm in my mid-20s and have had a child they're becoming an issue. I have regular back and neck aches and have migraines. I'm about 115lbs and 5ft2in. I wear a 28i. What's the process? Do I need to see someone for my back / neck pains to document them? Can I go through my OBGYN? The girls are still perky. Will that change at all? Are there any schools in Denver where I could get it low cost? I have Medicaid so will probably pay OOpocket.

Breast Reduction Surgery

Thank you for your question. Breast reduction is designed to improve the appearance and symptoms of overly large breasts by reducing their size and reshaping them. The surgery is specifically designed to relieve symptoms of pain and discomfort in the breasts, shoulders, neck and upper back. New developments in breast reduction surgery include the limited incision techniques, including the LeJour technique and the use of liposculpture for artistic shaping of the breast. Each... more

Breast reduction options

If you love your shape, you may be a good candidate for liposuction breast reduction. So called "scarless breast reduction". Out of pocket, this may be a less expensive option as well. Find a board certified plastic surgeon in your area with experience in all types of breast reduction.
