I had an extended tummy tuck done through my insurance BCBS.  I had documentations from my family doctor stating I had rash/yeast infections under the hanging skin.  Got approved right away.  I am getting breat lift and implants and they will not cover them.  I got a quote for 6200.  You can call your insurance up and ask, they will let you know what all you need and if your would be approved.  Good Luck!

Check with your insurance.

Every bit of mine was covered.

I have Aetna. They will generally cover PS if it is medically necessary.

None of mine was "medically necessary", thus not covered.

I just had TT done on Friday it was covered my ins. you have to prove it is medically neccassry documentation of creams from the doctor and pictures. My Ins also had the plastic surgeon take lots of photos. It does not hurt to try good luck
