Hello, I am considering my surgery reconstruction choices (I can have reconstruction at same time as mastectomy on left breast). My breast surgeon has recommended DIEP surgery but I am very concerened about the scarring that I will be left with post-op and would be grateful for any advice.
If you have undergone DIEP surgery please get in touch and tell me your thoguhts about your post-op scars. Have they settled, faded, healed well? Do have any regrests and wish you had chosen implants?
I am torn between chosing DIEP or implant, and any feedback would be helpful. I am worried that post DIEP op I will look down at my body and only see a big scar smiling back at me.
Thank you so much
