Most insurance companies would argue that breast augmentation surgery, including breast reduction is considered purely cosmetic and serves no health benefit to the woman getting the breast reduction. However according to a study done by plastic surgeon Dr. Nolan S. Karp of NYU Medical Center, out of the 59 patients in the study, all of them agreed to a dramatic increase in their quality of life.
Three months and then one year after their surgery, the women were asked about changes in pain and quality of life. They were asked to rate their pain from a score of 1 to 5 (5 being highest).
Scores fell dramatically after the reduction mammoplasties — in categories including lower-back pain, neck pain, headache and bra-strap “grooving.”
“Women were also greatly relieved that they were more able to engage in healthful activities such as running or playing sports — demonstrating that breast reduction surgeries have even wider health implications,” Dr. Spector says.
Women who have had breast reduction surgeries can attest to the idea that their procedure has indeed brought them many enhancements in life. Would you agree that pain relief and new opportunities to stay fit are a viable reason to be reimbursed through breast reduction surgery? What do you think?

A recent study showed that women who have had cosmetic breast surgery are more likely to commit suicide. Although simply just a corollary, meaning there is no direct relationship between women who get breast implants and suicide, the study does in fact bring up some important issues.
“It appeared there was no excess risk of suicide in the first 10 years after receiving a breast implant,” Lipworth tells WebMD. “But after that, the risk went up and continued to go up. There was a 4.5-fold risk for 10 years after surgery and a sixfold risk for 20 or more years.”
“Nobody is saying that silicon breast implants themselves make women commit suicide, although scientists cannot yet totally rule out that remote possibility, says Louise A. Brinton, PhD, MPH, chief of the hormonal and reproductive epidemiology branch of the U.S. National Cancer Institute”
What the researchers are drawing from the data is that the women who are depressed or are committing suicide were predisposed to psychiatric issues and problems. Many women used cosmetic surgery as a vehicle to meet their physical needs but have ended up unsatisfied or more distraught at the outcome. Which is in effect the opposite to what cosmetic surgery does for most women. Most women find increased self esteem and confidence and a new spark in life.
“What our data suggests to us is there is a subset of women choosing to get cosmetic breast implants who have psychiatric illness prior to implantation. This results in high risk of unnatural cause of death — suicide and deaths related to alcohol dependence and drug abuse,” says Lipworth, an assistant professor of medicine at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn.
So do breast implants cause suicide? Of course not. There is no solid evidence of silicone toxicity or that any part of the surgery results in a chemical imbalance in the system. If there are problems that result from the surgery, they were most likely a part of the person to begin with - before the surgery.

A new liposuction technique has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. This new procedure is less invasive and uses, instead of a vacuum, a laser.Some doctors say that this laser liposuction is better and safer than the traditional surgery.
By using a local anesthetic, doctors insert a small tube with a laser under the skin, and as the laser probe comes into contact with the targeted fat cells, it melts away the fat and then is drained from the body.
The benefits are that there is minimal bruising and swelling afterwards and doctors say the incision is so small, there’s no need for stitches.
However, the new procedure isn’t for everybody.
The ideal candidate for the laser system is best or targeting small and stubborn fat deposits in otherwise healthy people, and should not be used to address obesity.

ABC news reports on a 16-year old girl who underwent gastric bypass surgery or bariatric surgery. There was a lot of controversy with this surgery because of her age. She went from 368 pounds to 170 pounds losing 198 pounds. She went from an overeating, overweight, depressed girl to a healthy dieting and happier person. The psychological and health benefits are obvious, but the question remains, was she too young? How young is too young? Doctors are most concerned about the long term effects, she’s still a growing girl, and the procedure is practically impossible to reverse.
What do you think? Was she too young? Or are the benefits worth the risk? You can read and watch the story here: http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/Story?id=3101888&page=1
