My daughter is 14 and has dealt with 32ddd breast for the past 3 years. It causes back and neck pain and the straps on her bras also leave marks on her shoulders so she goes to a physical therapist which has not helped relieve her pain. My question is, Is it legal for an minor to receive breast reduction surgery and would an insurance company even consider covering part of the cost?
