Scarring with diep flap reconstruction

Hello

I wonder if anyone who has had this type of reconstruction can give me advice on the scars that will be on your breasts and abdomen? Im considering this type of reconstruction post dual mastectomy but the images and information on scarring is a bit inconsistent.

Hello LesleyAnnH,
You can find information on the types of reconstruction here, including DIEP flap, which I hope will help you feel more informed. I'm sure other members can offer their thoughts and your surgeon and breast cancer nurse are also there to address any concerns.
Best wishes,
