Can I get a breast reduction and implants in at the same time?

September 14, 2017
Asked By:tmuneca in Atlanta, GA

I am a 38 E and have had progressive back problems due to this. I was wanting to get my natural breast reduced to a B cup so that not much fat is left and getting implants to put me back at a DD. Implants are weightless compared to fat so I would achieve the aesthetic I want without the back issues. Will my insurance pay for the breast reduction part of this, if it was ordered by a physician to help with my back problems? Or will I have to pay for it all since I would be adding on Implants?
