Breast reduction

How long is it reasonable to wait for breast reduction on opposite side to the reconstruction to balance things up a bit? This is the one thing that is holding me back from just moving on although it seems trivial  compared to what some people  are going through 

  • Hi Jane, 

    I have found some information on our website about breast cancer surgery here that may help with this although I would suggest giving our cancer nurses a call as well as they will be able to discuss this with you in moe detail. You can call them for free on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9am - 5p.m.

    I hope this helps Jane and you get to hear from others that have been in the same situation soon.

    All the best,
