Reconstruction

Hello has anyone had the nipple reconstruction using the rib technique? 

  • Hi Janeymoon, 

    It's difficult to know sometimes what type of reconstruction to go for as there are so many different options available and you can find out more on our website on types of breast reconstruction including nipple reconstruction options. If you would like to talk things through with someone then do give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040. They're available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and will do all they can to help to answer your questions on nipple reconstruction. 

    I've also found this thread from a couple of years ago from  - this member was at the time looking for others who had gone through a nipple reconstruction and I am not sure whether they are still active on the forum but they could be a good person for you to chat to so don't hesitate to respond to her thread.

    I hope that it all goes well for you and that you will hear from the experiences of others who have had a nipple reconstruction using the rib technique.  

    Best wishes,
