Tayla Surace asked 4 years ago

Hello i was wondering if you could give me advice..

i have 6 benign tumours in my breasts (3 in each) and i had them looked at mid last year, i have one the size of about a golf ball and my breast cup size is about a 8C -10C depending on the brand so there not very big.

i was told by my doctor that if i remove them i would most likely loose my breast size and he even considered for me to get a breast augmentation.

i was wondering for this situation that it could possibly be covered by medicare

Hi, in simple terms no – unless you are left with significant deformity that needs reconstructing and in that case implant may not be the best option.

Very unlikely, and her chances are dropping with the proposed Medicare changes to re-define ‘cosmetic surgery’
