Undergone mastectomy: will breast augmentation helps?

Hey, I was suffering from breast cancer and I have undergone the mastectomy. Its been a month after mastectomy. I planning to undergo breast augmentation surgery from a clinic in London as it takes a longer period to regain full and healthy figure.  I am planning to undergo implant along with the augmentation. Since I was suffering from breast cancer will there be any scope for breast cancer if I undergo breast implant? I have heard that there are many things that I should take care after the surgery. Are there any restrictions in using undergarments? How many days will it take for removing the stitches? Is there a chance for redness and inflammation for the surgery region? Is there a need for a special diet that can heal the wound faster? It will be nice if you can share your experience in undergoing the augmentation!

One of my friends has a similar problem, but she decided to do her breast augmentation surgery in Asia. She always wanted to go to Asia and to visit it’s tourist attractions, but she never had time. Finally, she decided to go to the Middle East for doing her breast surgery, but she’s still not sure which country to choose?

She researched many websites for medical tourism, and she found Ariamedtour in Iran and Medigo in Turkey, are anyone went to these countries for any surgery? Do they have high-quality hospitals and clinics?

For clarifying the reason why my friend wants to go there, I should add that she heard those countries have professional specialist and the cost of surgery is very affordable. But the risk of going abroad for surgery is made her unsure.

I didn’t know where should I ask my question, so I hope somebody sees my comment and answer to me.
