Rash/sores from Very Saggy Breasts? Possible for Insurance to Cover Lift? (No Reduction)

stupidsexyflanders
My breasts are small and extemely saggy.(After breastfeeding 3 children) They are literally only hanging skin. When I wear a bra they kind of just roll/crumple up into the bra. It is causing me to have weepy,oozing painful areas on my areolas from the skin rubbing on skin. Is it possible that insurance might cover a lift, no implants or anything, just to remove some of the extra loose skin, since it is causing me sores and pain? Or are they likely to call it cosmetic? Thank you very much?
