Breast Lift or Reduction? Let’s clear up the confusion 🩺✨
Dr. Slocum explains the key differences — from incision patterns to insurance requirements, and what defines medical necessity.
💡 Something to keep in mind: When a reduction is covered by insurance, surgeons must remove a specific amount of tissue (based on the Schnur Scale) to meet criteria. This can sometimes result in a smaller breast size than envisioned.
If maintaining more fullness or having more control over your final shape is important to you, a cosmetic lift or reduction may be worth exploring.
