Double mastectomy and immediate Reconstructive surgery

Hi All, 

I am looking for a little advice. 
 

I am due to have a double mastectomy and immediate reconstructive surgery in the upcoming months. I have chosen to have implant reconstruction however I am unsure what shape implant to have. 

Has anyone elected to have the tear drop implant instead of the round implant? 
 

If so, would you make any changes now your surgery is complete? 

Thanks in advance
 

 

  • Might not help you. I have recently had a mastectomy but chose not to have implants. 
     

    Previously however I have had 2 sets of implants prior to my cancer. 
     

    I had tear drop in 2012, and July last year I had round. 
     

    I noticed the tear drop ones sagged quite quickly and didn't end up being a great shape long term. Obviously I didn't get a chance to see how the round would end up, but went for the round implants on recommendation from cosmetic breast surgeon. Hope that helps x
