I'm nervous/anxious and second guessing the decision to have this done. Never thought I would do it but I'm tired of this tummy and these long boobs. Currently I'm 5 ft. 7in weigh between 175 and 180 lbs; and have 36DDD breast. My highest weight was 230 a few years ago; I've tried everything except surgery to lose weight. I carry the majority of my weight in my breast and stomach. I've scheduled with Dr. Withers in Houston who I heard about through co-workers. My insurance will cover the majority of the cost for the breast reduction. I'm concerned that I'll be disappointed at the outcome, I've read so many horror stories.

Pre-op Appt.

Just finished my pre-op with Dr. Withers. The price I was quoted and paid did not include lipo of the flanks and bra fat area. Which means I would would still have a muffin top and under arm fat.....Uurrgghhhh!!!!!....cost another $750 per area.

Omg.... really... I need to make sure mine is covered...and 750 per area... how.many areas .. so are u still getting it done on the 13...
April 12, 2016
Yes, still getting it done but I was really surprised that wasn't included...why would it not be? When they quoted lipo in the original price I assumed that meant everywhere...NOPE, just front tummy area..2 areas an additional $1500 (Flanks and underarm fat). Insurance doesn't cover any lipo because it's not medically necessary.
April 12, 2016
Oh my I'm calling them in the morning.. I pay extra for lipo.. cut now I'm wondering where.. is it only in the front also..
April 12, 2016
How much did you pay after the insurance paid they part...I'm scared now..
