I am having a single mastectomy in September. I am going to have the mastectomy and they will then reconstruct my breast using blood vessels, tissue, and muscle from my tummy. They are going to lift and reposition my other breast on the same day to match my reconstructed breast. I have been told to consider what size I would like to be. This is a very difficult decision. I am naturally a 34HH with natural sagging, but I wear good supportive bra and do enjoy being big busted. The plastic surgeon has said my breast will look more lifted and sit higher, so going up to a 34HH could look too much. I am considering going down to a 34D, but I am not sure if this would look too small. The surgeon said the bigger the size the more blood vessels and muscle they need to use from my tummy so I want to reduce the risk to that area following the operation.
Any advice about how breasts sit after reconstruction and how to judge sizes?? I m 48 and love dressing up, going out and feeling feminine, but don't want to look ridiculous lol. Thanks.
