I have read many answers that say a breast lift will not be covered unless it is part of a medically necessary breast reduction, which I do not want. My 40D breasts are large and sagging (I am only 23) and I sweat profusely. The heat and sweat causes me to get a fungal rash in the under part of my breast that oozes, causes pain, and even causes tears in the skin. My bras are washed regularly but the problem persists. Could insurance cover it if my surgeon thinks it will help?
