How much lipo is covered by insurance for stage 2 Diep surgery? I need lipo on my stomach AND flanks!

Asked By:Wingracie in Seattle, Washington

I want to make sure my expectations are in line with what is covered by insurance. I think my stomach is looking very"boxy" after diep, and it looks like I have a second set of hips! Very obvious in clothing, which fit poorly now(muffin top with those hips!) What can I get done with insurance, vs do I pay out of pocket to get the look I'm after.
