Will kaiser allow breast tissue to be removed while performing a breast lift without having to take out the full 500cc like with a reduction. My surgeon said 500cc was too much and would leave me with nothing. I am set on reducing size and weight but need insurance coverage. I am afraid a lift will leave me too big and a reduction will leave me too small. I wear a 36G and would like to be a small C cup.

Answer: Breast reduction Dear Larissa Miller,breast lift would not be able to achieve your desired size. For that you will need a breast lift. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Breast Lift Thank you for your question and submitting your photos. Your insurance coverage will largely dictate the amount of tissue that needs to be removed to be a covered procedure. If you don't want to have that much removed, you may fall into the category of a cosmetic breast lift and would need to pay for that procedure yourself. It is always best to see a board certified surgeon in your area and be familiar with your insurance coverage to make the best decisions that will allow you to achieve your desired look. Best wishes on obtaining a great result!
