Wil insurance cover breast implants?
Um, really, you're seriously asking this question? If that was the case then every woman out there who didn't like their small breast or after nursing kids would be getting a lift w/ implants. Implants are purely cosmetic and a self-pay surgery. Might be able to have implants covered if you're going in for reconstruction after a mastectomy.
Implants will only be covered if you are having a reconstruction, usually after cancer. A breast reduction may be covered if youa re having more than 500g (or so) of tissue removed from each side.

I needed BR/BL, and went from a 34 rolled up D to a 32 swollen D. I have no idea where I'll end up when the swelling goes down, but I'll either like it or get implants when it's all healed.
I started at 48DD - it's a huge change, but you know, the 32 D actually looks a bit too big on my current frame. I might actually LIKE being a larger B or smaller C. DH - now that's another story! LOL!
