My insurance company will not approve my breast reduction unless the surgeon takes 850 grams of fat. My surgeon has recommended 650 grams. Is the extra 200 grams too much?

Answer: 200 grams for Breast Reduction This is one surgery that really gets me going. There is nothing more aggravating than having some pencil pusher tell me how I have to do my surgery. Breast reduction is just this surgery. By setting an arbitrary amount of breast volume to be removed only to, in the end, make the stock holders happy is outrageous. Get your surgery done in the best cosmetic way possible. Your insurance company will raise their excision amount more and more just so they don't have to pay for it. You're lucky they'll pay anything. I know money is often the issue but never compromise the appearance for the rest of your life for the sake of some over paid insurance company.

Answer: Breast reduction volume Breast reduction volume can vary a great deal. While 200 gms may be a 'spit in the bucket" for very larger breasted women, in others it may be all that they have. It would be hard to tell without examining you first. Taking out too much may make your breasts look too small.
