I suffer from back and shoulder pain from my 38G/F breast and I frequently suffer cuts on my shoulders from some of my bras . Plus I have eczema and depending on my day can suffer sweat breakouts that leave my skin underneath extremely irritated. I understand that the Tummy Tuck is considered cosmetic and I would have to pay for it, but is it possible for the two surgeries to be combined to only have to go under once and save myself time and money?

Answer: Combo cases In some cases this is definitely possible. Even if your surgeon does not accept insurance that doesn’t mean your insurance provider won’t reimburse you for part of of the reduction. I would visit with a few PS in your area to learn more. Good luck!!

Answer: Breast Reduction and Tummy Tuck To quickly answer your question: yes! If it very plausible to have an insurance based breast reduction and the cosmetic abdominoplasty at the same time. Depending on your surgeon, this combo surgery could take anywhere from 4-6 hours. I would recommend postoperatively to stay overnight in a hospital or around the clock nursing care for appropriate aftercare. Good luck and hope this helps!

Answer: Breast reduction and abdominoplasty Thank you for your question. Yes, it is possible to have your insurance breast reduction and cosmetic abdominoplasty done at the same time. Your surgeon will bill insurance for the breast reduction, and your abdominoplasty will be paid out of pocket, generally prior to your surgery. Many patient choose to combine these surgeries so they only have to go under anesthesia one time, and only have one recovery. Good luck.
