  1. Plastic Surgery- How can so many afford this expensive last step on WL journey?

      I'm ~25-30lbs from goal - getting saggy & feeling badly (self-image naked). I'd love to have a few procedures; TT, lower bod lift, breast lift, arms.... nose lol. Anyway, how is it that so many are able to afford these procedures? Does Ins. cover it all, in-part, not at all?

       

      I'd hate to go into $20K debt at my age when I already have significant retirement 'catch-up' to do after 8 ortho surgeries in 4 yrs, for which I missed a LOT of work.

       

      Is there a Plastic Surgery Fairy that helps people afford this last important WLS step?

      Maybe you can find some help here, with this bariatric organization that gives out grants for both bariatri surgery and post-op plastics.

      Insurances at times will pay for plastic if certain conditions have been met. like how much loose skin. rashes etc. check and see
