For someone to qualify for free breast reduction you should contact the NHS. The NHS only provide this service if your condition is causing you pain or illness.
Breast enlargement on NHS is not highly available, however there are long waiting lists and exceptions when NHS pay for BA, before you get on the waiting list they will send you to the psychiatric assessment to see if your problem affects your state of mind and everyday life. They will ask a lot of personal straight forward questions to see your true reasons.
Breast augmentation can be performed on the NHS only when there is some valid medical reason to justify it, such as an obvious size difference in the breasts or the patient is able to demonstrate that having small breasts is causing psychological problems. The NHS will not perform breast augmentation surgery for cosmetic reasons alone. What size of implants will be offered to a patient is dealt with on a case-by-case basis and there is no general rule about the size of implants on offer.
There are many companies that specialize in breast augmentation in the UK. Among them are HarleyMedical, NHS, Mya, TransformingLives, Natrelle, and Bupa.
If the nipple is a third one, it may be possible if your doctor thinks you are undergoing damage to your mental health about it. Otherwise, it may be deemed as cosmetic surgery if it is not causing any harm to you.

All PCTs (NHS Primary Care Trusts) have different rules and criteria. Some will fund exceptional cases for mastopexy and some will not consider it at all. Abdominoplasty will be considered by most PCTs after a specific drop in BMI that has been maintained for a certain amount of time so it seems strange that mastopexy does not also come under these rules because a heavy weight loss can affect the breasts as much as it can affect the tummy. The best way to find out the answer is to check with your own PCT or GP.
Bupa cosmetic surgery specializes in breast enlargement, breast uplift, liposuction, weight loss surgery, nose surgery, breast reduction, tummy tuck, laser eye surgery, face lift, neck lift, etc.
Yes, because I have the same issue as yourself and I went to see my GP about it and I have been referred to a plastic surgeon and my appointment to meet with him is in eight weeks.
