Since insurance pretty much considers them cosmetic, are there financing options / payment plans for those that don't have thousands in cash lying around the house?

I went from a 42-F to a 36 D and they are depressing... Kelly gave me the green light for my breast and tummy tuck even though it's only been 7 months. I don't think you will break your bank... have you had a consultation yet?

Thanks to all for the support! You are all such a wonderful, helpful group. Really gave me some good info to think about. I still have a ton of research to do, a mammogram to get (I'm at "that age") and possibly a plastic surgery consult. I'll be sure to let you all know what I decide to do!

For sure keep us updated......on what you decide, costs, and thoughts and feelings along the way. It's good to hear and see the process as you come up on it. Right now I am not sure about the TT and maybe chin lift, but just can't imagine living with these 75 yr old boobs.

At the PS office, there are brochures fo the various companies that only do PS lines of credit. One of them I think is Unicorn financing. They have a variety of payment options and rates.
