I am trying to get a breast augmentation and at my first consultation they told me I have tuberous breasts. After doing research I see that my tricare insurance might cover this after I talked to them. So I’m curious if my tuberous breasts are noticeable or if they are only slightly off.

Answer: Tuberous breasts Your photos suggest that you do have tuberous breasts. Depending on your goals the recommended treatment would likely be a breast lift and placement of breast implants. It is unlikely that Tricare would actually cover your surgery but there is no harm in making an inquiry.

Answer: Tuberous breast Thank you for your question. I do agree that you have tuberous breast. Each insurance carrier will have their own protocol in regards to covering a procedure. I would suggest a breast augmentation with the implant placed under the muscle and a breast lift. This will help with the shape, size and droop to the breast. I would suggest seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Tuberous breast and tricare You do have tuberous breasts, but you will be lucky to find someone to take insurance for this issue. State run insurance plans are notorious for not paying for surgeries that they can argue are cosmetic in nature. The best plan is to do breast implants and perform a breast lift at the same time.
