Finally finished!
Finally finished and happy with the result. 6 years, 9 operations, 3 surgeons. Double mastectomy, 1 failed reconstruction, Lat Dorsi transfer and a second reconstruction after all the badly burned skin from radiation was removed. They look fabulous in clothes.

- mum2jjMemberWow.amazing :)
- BatwomanMemberA friend of mine in England is having a double mastectomy today with expanders straight in. She just sent me this picture of the nipple tattoos she is planning on getting when she finally has her implants. I think they look great, so I'm sharing, with her permission.
- SisterMemberWhat an amazing smile @Batwoman - it says it all! Good luck with the next surgery - no doubt it'll be a doddle after everything you've been through.
- lrb_03MemberYoue tattoo is amazing. You've had a long road to get to this point. So glad you're happy :)
Take care - mum2jjMemberWell look at you after all this time. Amazing result for you. So happy.
Paula xx - BatwomanMemberNow I have an amazing tattoo to cover the lumpy bits. Jackson May based at Youngbloods Tattoo in Rockingham WA. He can also do 3D nipple tattoos if it's your thing and he is such a nice guy. My tattoo took 9.5 hours, 2 days ago and I still have another 4 to go. It's life changing. Now I don't see a mess that brings back scary memories, I just see art. I'm so happy.
- mum2jjMemberBugger. So sorry to hear this. Hope the ultrasound goes we'll. Paula
- BatwomanMemberThank you everyone. Apparently it's not quite over yet. One of the implants moved and now I need more tests to see if it's bleeding underneath and more surgery if it is. Oh well. I'll keep you informed, ultrasound on the 21st. It's all good, I would just prefer not to have to do a 600km round trip at this time of the year.
