Asked By:BBLdoll2015 in Chicago, IL

I want to get a brazilian butt lift&need 3 wks off work, cant afford using pto,need that for a vac in Aug. I know bbl is not covered by fmla but what if I say it's for a "breast reduc"to help back pain? which I do plan getting in the future anyway.I know its not good to lie but I like to think of this as a "white lie" lol, would my employer ever find out like would this be possible to get by? How does the fmla process work for non elective surgery&does a breast reduc. to help w/back pain qualify
