i am a 19 year old 5”2 white female with two children. i am having problems with my breasts since having them. i roll over on them and they get in the way a lot, it’s affecting my day to day life now. i have scoliosis and my breasts sag and make my back hurt even more. i am wondering if insurance will cover some of the cost. my breasts are too large for my body, my nipple and areola point downwards. it is causing me pain and self image is hard as it is.
Answer: Breasts You would do well with a small reduction or lift. However, your breasts are probably too small to be covered by insurance. You might check with your policy and see what requirements are needed.

Answer: Breast reduction or breast uplift? I recommend you breast uplift surgery. Your breasts will be smaller, fuller, perkier and areola reduction is also part of this surgery. However, I recommend having this surgery if you aren’t planning on getting pregnant again. During pregnancy, the weight fluctuations may cause sagging again. You are a great candidate for this surgery.

Answer: Breast lift vs. Breast reduction. Hi, it is best to ask yourself what your cosmetic goals are first. Do you want significantly smaller breasts, lifted breasts, improved shape, and/or improved symmetry? Insurance plans will vary on their requirements for coverage in terms of breast reduction surgery and may require significant amounts of tissue removed to achieve those requirements. This sometimes is technically not possible if insufficient tissue is present (you must maintain certain amounts to preserve blood supply to the skin and nipple) or it may result in poor cosmetic results. I can't provide an accurate recommendation without seeing you in person to perform a physical exam and get a complete medical and surgical history. However, based on your images your best option may be a bilateral breast lift with a small Right side breast reduction for improved symmetry. This procedure will maintain a breast size proportional to your body, round out and lift your breasts, reduce areolar size, and improve symmetry.
