Saline or Silicone?
I'm going to have to make a decision in a couple of months when my reconstruction is due to be finished and my tissue expander gets swapped out for a breast implant. Do I go saline or silicone? I've...
Nice Profile Pic there. I'm a little bit of a fan too.
I am about to change over from my tissue expander and I am having the same thoughts. I'm not sure which way I will go. Part of me wasn't going to go with a reconstruction, but I am big busted (even though I had a reduction when I had the xpander put in) and I was having a lot of pain in my neck, back and shoulder. When I went to a different surgeon (first one told me it was a waste of time with me being advanced) he told me it needed to be done as I shouldn't have to go through other pain along with anything else I might have to go through.
I am still unsure which way to go. I think I prefer the thought of saline, as after all I am really only after the bump and some weight so that the other pains go.
Good luck with your choice.
