Hi @Mjames, I had a single nipple sparing mastectomy just over 12 months ago. I guess the main difference between us is that I am only a small B cup and perhaps because of this I haven't noticed any extra heaviness from the implant. The implant feels well supported by a mesh sling and sits under my pec muscle. You will find other stories and photos in Choosing Breast Reconstruction. Wishing you good luck with your decision.
I also wanted to welcome you to this forum. None of us ever wanted to be here, but it is a great place for support and information. There will always be some who understands how you are feeling. Take care, Jane xx
