Ok, well here's a little background first.  I am 19 years old and go to college in St. Louis.  My family doesn't have much money and I don't have any to my name since I'm paying for school.  

I got a job over the summer and I calculated that I'd probably earn about $3k (after taxes) over the summer.  But I would like to get the surgery done before school starts up again.  Is there any way I could get a loan or are there any programs out there to help with paying for plastic surgery.

I am determined to get this surgery and the sooner the better.  Any comments would be appreciated.

Maybe you can find a PS who does Pro Bono work. ;D

As a full time student, you should be able to retain coverage under your parents medical insurance even though you are over 18.  

The Pro Bono Idea has real merit, but a person would likely have to have rather large breasts and resultant emotional problems to get this kind of service.
