Deciding on Reconstruction or not

Hi Kel, I was in hospital for 4 days with the mastectomy and insertion of bilateral tissue expanders. This was a little more painful than just mastectomy alone, but not much more. I didn't have lymph nodes taken this time, and that makes for a much better operation. As far as your boobs looking fake, I wouldn't worry. My implants are tear drop shaped, and in my old underwire bras, I look the same as before. I have my cleavage back again, which was important to me. However this cleavage is really just a nice gentle rise on my chest wall, which replaces the divet left from the mastectomy. In a low front T shirt, my cleavage looks very normal, and I doubt that anyone would look at me and know that I had fake boobs, if I hadn't told them. I didn't go too big, and I do wish that I had gone another 100 ml,as I am a bit flatter on top. My old and new size is a 14B, and my implants were Allergan extra full projection and were 495g each. The weight of my mastectomy was 380g, and I was worried that I would be enormous, and nearly rang my surgeon about going down a size. I think I would fill my bra better with a bit more silicone. Having said all that, I am still very happy with my new fake boobs. Good luck on Monday. Love Chris xx
