mewlicious said:Maybe just a consultation might be a good idea. See how into it she is and also many insurance companies help pay for breast reductions since it saves chiropracter, pain med cost in the long run. A little checking won't hurt.
I can see it being a positive thing for her if she accepts the whole consultation process and medical talk from the Dr. Also, it might be good for her before college. Kinda new body, new life positive outlook.
I am the same breast size as your daughter, but taller. I consider it sometimes, but can't get used to the whole surgical process. Good luck to you and her whatever you both choose.

If you decide to go make sure the surgeon discusses all the potential risks and answers your questions. I'm not sure the lift part would be covered, as that seems more cosmetic. Keep us posted.
