Hey @Flaneuse a warm welcome to you, it is incredibly overwhelming especially with waiting to see your Surgeon next week. We get it!
Hopefully you have clicked on the link for Breast Reconstruction at the top you will see photo stories click on it, if you scroll to the top of that all the different types of reconstructions are listed, so you can go in and see each.
I had a single mastectomy/diep flap reconstruction in late february this year, it is a big op as it involves a tummy tuck as well, I'm really happy with the result. I also had my revision surgery late July, 5 months later as I had some fat necrosis in the reconstructed side I had to get rid of. So I had more fat grafting, they reopened my tummy incision by 34cm, nipple reconstruction and right breast lift to match. Really happy with the result. Surgery all done! oh apart from tattooing lol.
All the best.
