Any regrets after going flat?
I'm seriously considering having my other breast off, and going flat. I don't have a cancer gene, and have not had this recommended for that reason. But I am finding my remaining breast a nuisance. ...

Hi @Abbydog,
I opted to go flat 12 years ago after a double mastectomy. I have never regretted my choice for one minute. The surgery was on Monday, went home on Thursday, drains out on Saturday. Since then I wear Amoena bras for special occasions, but usually go bra-free most days. I was a c/D cup before. Lightweight scarves over tank tops with a shirt/jacket are my go-to items, and there is a real sense of freedom as far as movement is concerned. The scar is a very fine line across my chest, barely noticeable. It is very much a personal choice. I was over 60 and my husband was 100% behind my choice. I wish you all the best whatever you decide. xx
