Hi @Twiggyjumps and welcome to the forum. I had a single skin and nipple sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction using silicon implant last June so am now approx nine months post surgery. Was offered lumpectomy but was also told the amount of tissue that had to be taken would result in a very deformed breast even under clothing, there was also the possibility of a satellite cancer in the breast as well so for me it was a no brainer.

If I can be of any assistance in answering any questions you may have I'm more than happy to assist. Xx Cath
