Flexible financing, when you need it
If insurance doesn't cover everything, low monthly payments keep it affordable.
Will insurance cover your reduction?
Often, yes. When heavy breasts cause documented physical symptoms, insurers may treat a reduction as medically necessary, not cosmetic. Here's what they weigh, and how we help you find out.
Every plan is different. We read your specific benefits and tell you what to expect.
Check your coverage-
Your symptoms are documented
Insurers look for a documented history of physical symptoms, things like neck pain, shoulder grooving, and back strain tied to breast size.
-
Conservative care is considered
Many plans want to see that you have already tried non-surgical measures such as supportive bras, physical therapy, or pain management.
-
A tissue-removal threshold is met
Coverage often depends on removing a minimum amount of breast tissue, scaled to your height and body frame.
-
Medical necessity is established
When the criteria line up, your reduction may qualify as medically necessary rather than purely cosmetic. We help you confirm where your plan stands.

In their words
Look no further. Dr. Pincus and his team are the absolute best. Not only is he the most skilled in the game, he listens and truly cares about his patients. The staff are all so nice and they treat you like family. I am so happy with my results.
Dr. Pincus is wonderful. He made me feel completely comfortable and guided me toward the right decision so I didn't need more surgery than necessary. The staff and nurses are so friendly and make you feel at home.
I waited a very long time for my procedure. Having a rare anesthesia issue, Dr. Pincus and his team made sure I was completely safe. I am beyond amazed with the results, and forever grateful for getting my confidence back.
