I had left breast expandor put in with a right breast lift after having a mastemctomy for left breast cancer. There was alot of pain for the first few days and then it has gotten much better.

I feel that it will be worth it all when the procedures are all done, I will diffenetly feel better about myself.

I just started breast reconstruction after breast cancer, they are going to start filling tommorrow, can you tell me how the nipple is made and where the skin comes from?
Great review?

My Doctor: name not provided

He is very compasionate to what I have been through in the past 7 months

If you Google "nipple reconstruction," on the net, you will find several links that tell you how the reconstruction of the nipple is done. Good luck.
