Unhappy with breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Any one satisfied with their breast reconstruction? (Photo)

Asked By:victorg in Houston, TX

Anyone out there with similar problems like me? I had a mastectomy in my teens. Then subsequent reconstruction. I have not been happy since the mastectomy because I don't have symmetry in my boobs, at least not for long, because I have an implant in just my left breast and a natural lifted right breast (that tends to sag over time). I also have problems with scarring badly. Any suggestions?
