Excess Skin
RNY on 03/26/13
Hey everyone...I don't post very often but i am starting to worry about something...After loosing LARGE amounts of weight there will be a large excess of skin. Yes the gym helps, but i am sure my stomach will defiantly have skin that just won't bounce back no matter what you do. Is this surgery covered by health care? Or is this considered "Cosmetic"? Thanks!

Hi Miss Curves,
I believe the panniculus and/or apron is usually covered by RAMQ, but most often not, the upper tummy, breasts, arms or legs are not, unless it's a health issue.
