Reconstruction - not everyone is happy with the results - updated
The New York Magazine has a recent article on Breast Reconstruction - and claims that up to 40% of women are dissatisfied with the results.
Many women are VERY happy with their results and sail thru the surgery & recovery .... but others may be unprepared for the 'wait time ', particularly if they aren't on private health cover, let alone the chances of complications and a less pleasing aesthetic result than expected. Big out of pocket expenses may apply to private reconstruction surgery, whilst long waits (sometimes many years) are common if having reconstruction in the public hospital system.
Having Inserts may also require further surgery if they rupture - plus many have a 'limited life span' anyway, requiring surgical replacements 10+ years later .....
