So if the Max on Reconstruction is 800cc What Size is That Comparable Too? Am I Going to Look Like a Freak?

Without examining you and seeing you in person, I cannot tell whether 800cc would be too large for you.  If you are tall and wide on the chest, 800cc may look good.  However, if you are very slim/petite, 800cc will be too large.  What size bra were you wearing prior to mastectomy? Do you have expanders currently?  How much is expander filled to?  You should talk with your plastic surgeon and discuss with him/her your desired look/goal.  Good luck to you.

This is a difficult question to answer without evaluating you.  If you are petite and place 800cc, it will look too big.   If you are very overweight, 800 cc might look too small.  

Bottomline, implant selection is dependent on patient goals and body habitus.  With communication during the expansion process of desired end result, I find most reconstruction patients are very content with their final size.

I wish you a safe recovery and fantastic result.

800 cc's results vary depending on whether you are a petite or large patient.  And if you are employing expanders, you can see how large you will be as you are filled.  So its difficult to look like a 'freak' since you should know beforehand, just about how you will look.  And if the fill port is not taken into account, you always will be smaller then what your expander volume was when you chose your implant.
