Breast Lift After Weight Loss Insurance Coverage

December 26, 2009
Asked By:1992 in Illinois

I'm almost 18 years old, I lost a lost of weight weight, 80lbs in about 2 months. My weight gain was due to side effects of meds I was on for almost 2 years (Depakote and Zyprexa). At my biggest I was 210lbs and now I weigh 125lbs. I'm self conscious and embarrassed of my breasts; they look disgusting and saggy. Is there any way my insurance (BC/BS) would cover a breast lift?
