it's not a problem :) I can understand how the subject coud also feel very personal, so if you dont wish to reveal yourself I completely understand! I had wanted the surgery ever since I can remember, so I had a long time to do the research for it. The way I went about it was read articles and doctor reviews and I asked around personally about different doctors. (I live by Scottsdale, Arizona so almost everyone there at least knows someone who has gotten plastic surgery)
I narrowed my list down to just a few doctors that I read about and had heard amazing things from and I called each doctor on my list to make sure that they accepted my insurance so I could further eliminate the doctors who did not accept them. Afterwards I called my insurance plan to see if I met their specialized requirements to get the procedure covered (different plans require that you take different amounts out according to your weight and height and such because the only way they will cover it is if they deem your chest medically hazardous to your health.)
It turned out that I needed at least 750 grams taken out to meet their requirements, which I exceeded by an extreme amount. So I talked to each doctor, decided which one I felt the most comfortable with, got my insurance to preapprove, and everything was set.

The most important thing to do it make sure that the doctor you choose is licenced specifically for plastic surgery. By law, any doctor (no matter what they specialize in) can preform plastic surgery.. however I wouldn't trust it as much as someone who actually went to school to be a plastic surgen.

It was the best decision of my life, but I had years to prepare for it. Make sure to look up photographs of what the scars will look like right after the surgery so you know what you are in for. If you want the surgery more then you care about having the scars, I say go for it! Just make sure you know exactly what you are getting yourself into. :)

Sorry if that was just a crap load of info! lol
feel free toask me any additional questions you have at all about anything! :)
