I need recommendations for a PS in the North Hills part of Pittsburgh PA. I would like to use insurance if possible so they would have to accept highmark. Speaking of insurance was anyone else able to get a breast reduction/lift approved and also a panny removal? Thanks!

If you want to pay for PS with insurance, you will need to check with your insurance company for your coverage and participating doctors. Good luck because most Plastic Surgeons don't take insurance and most insurance won't cover any plastics other than mastectomy reconstruction.

Most folks end up traveling for PS. You want a surgeon that has dealt with formally obese people. Our skin took a lot of hits with our losing weight/gaining weight cycle during the years.
