Many people think that going to a plastic surgeon is the best way to get the body they want with the least amount of work. Liposuction is advertised on billboards everywhere. Breast reduction, lifting, and enlargement, face lifts, full body lifts, and stomach stapling are seemingly on everyone's wish list. Unfortunately, it isn't as easy as they lead you to believe.
What will a doctor and my Health insurance expect of me before any body modification surgery?
If you want your health insurance to cover your plastic surgery, there are several hoops to be jumped through. Literally and figuratively. First and foremost, if you are over weight, the insurance company is going to insist that you lose weight before they will approve the surgery. They will want to see if the body part you are wanting reduced will get smaller on its own if you lose weight and fat. Your insurance will most likely want you as close to your ideal weight as possible. The best and quickest way to get in shape before any surgery is by working with a personal trainer.
You will have to see several specialists to confirm that the pain you might have is not caused by some other injury. For instance, if you are looking into breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) they will want to make sure that your neck, back and shoulders don't have any problems unrelated to the size and weight of your breasts. These are just two requirements that most, if not all, insurance companies will lay down before they will cover the cost of any body modification. Your doctor will also want to make sure you are in great health to minimize any complications that could arise if you are in poor health. Surgery should not be taken lightly and being over weight or out of good physical condition can cause complications with surgery
