I am a 108 lb 5'3" 20 year old woman. I currently wear a 30H bra. Would I qualify for a breast reduction? What would be my options for cup size following a reduction? I will be 21 in November. Am I too young to have this procedure done currently?
Answer: Breast reduction Thanks for your question! Whether or not you can have it done through insurance is based on your insurance and their requirements. It certainly sounds like it should be covered! Please seek out in person consultations with qualified plastic surgeons. Good luck!

Answer: Breast Reduction Candidacy Without pictures or a proper examination, it is difficult to say. However, with a 30H bra size it is likely that you are a candidate for a breast reduction procedure. When you meet with your surgeon, they will go through the insurance process with you as well as finding your body surface area. This calculation will determine the mass in grams per breast that will need to be removed in order to qualify for insurance coverage. I recommend speaking with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

Answer: Breast reduction From your description it sounds like you would be a good candidate for breast reduction. This would relieve some of the weight of the breasts and also lift and reshape them. The amount to be removed would be discussed during a consultation with your surgeon. Together you can select a volume that meets your goals and fits your lifestyle. You are not too young to have this procedure, but there are considerations such as future breastfeeding. I encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to learn more.

Answer: Options for breast reduction You are not to young for a breast reduction. In regards to if you qualify for a reduction that would depend on what your insurance company states. Typically during a consultation and after the surgeon with give the recommendations and documentation to the insurance company and they will determine if they feel you fall into their guidelines for the reduction. If this is something that you would be paying for as a cosmetic procedure that would be a different story and may not have as many guidelines. I hope this answers your questions.
