Michigan Plastic Surgeons



Recommended Posts

Hello!!

I'm looking for reputable, insurance approved plastic surgeons in Michigan!

I hope to be able to get my insurance to cover my breast and tummy by my Blue Cross PPO plan.

If anyone has any referrals.....please let me know!!!!

Depends on the employer purchasing the plan

Go to the u if you're near Ann Arbor of course

I went to Ellen Janetzke in Birmingham, and had my surgery at Beaumont Royal Oak. I think I have had a good outcome, so far. I'm just 4 weeks out, and not totally healed. I had lower body lift, and brachioplasty. I'll be going back for a thigh lift, and breast lift/augmentation. There are lots of sites out there where patients rate plastic surgeons. I also suggest talking to more that one to see what they offer and suggest.

I'd found Dr Pramit Malhotra (Ann Arbor, MI and Jackson, MI) on realself but when I called they said BCBSM wouldn't cover my Tummy Tuck and it would be $6800 out of pocket :(

They suggested I check with my WLS surgeon as they could get insurance to cover better although I have no idea why.

My understanding is that they will cover if you have issues due to the remaining skin, ie rashes, irritation, etc. (I'm in Michigan too. Yay!)

I think it just depends on your insurance. Mine covered the abdominoplasty. Everything else is self pay.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
