Plastic Surgery and Insurance

Hi Everyone, I am now 13 months post-op and am in the beginning process of figuring out this plastic surgery thing. I am going to need help with my tummy, arms and thighs. I am also praying that I can find someone to help me pass this through insurance deeming that it is medically necessary. Have any of you out there gone through this step yet? If so, please email me because I am unsure where to start. I am in the Portland area. Thanks! Happy New Year!!

Someone I know said her daughter is having it done by a burn center. The burn center offered to do it for free if they can have the skin to help burn victims. check it out.

I have heard of that too however, I am having trouble finding the information for it. Do you know how to locate this information? Would your friend be willing to share the info?? Thanks so much for your help!!

If you find out can you share it on the board -I'd love to know thanks, gail
