A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review for our Serena Bra!

“This has been such a great bra for me since my breast lift.

Did you know our Larissa and Serena Bra can be covered by insurance for breast cancer related surgeries? Typically 2 are covered with a prescription from your doctor using the L8015 code. Contact your insurance company to get details about reimbursement. Many doctors/nurses don’t realize that, or patients aren’t told so we like to share this information. 💕
