Hi there , yes go for it. I had lump removed with conserving the breast. That means it's smaller only slightly, looks & feels like I have a normal breast. Do it I say feel like a woman ,will swim no hesitation. Pip

Thank you for the opinions, probably need a bit more info from my consultant too before I make a decision.  It is valuable to know what other people have decided though as it sheds light on factors which I haven't thought about.

Take care all x

A very personal choice. Discuss in detail with your surgeon and ask to see photos of outcomes if possible. Mammoplasty, reconstruction using implants, mastectomy without reconstruction and lumpectomy may be your choices. 
I had  bilateral breast cancer and was offered a lumpectomy or a mammoplasty. I chose a mammoplasty and I am delighted with the results. 
Good luck . 

Thank you, I'm so grateful to hear of other people's experiences. I know it's a personal choice but hearing other stories is useful. I know a lumpectomy is out of the question for me unfortunately but hopefully things won't be as scary with a bit more information.

Take care x

Hello Amy, I find the wording, ie deformed inappropriate.  Be a little kinder. Yes its not symetrical .I prefer it was designed or modified.  Either way less invasive than a full mastectomy or fake implant. Only I know, see & feel the benefit from this procedure. At 66 I have a normal figure & confident  to wear a swimming costume.agreed not for everyone, down to personal choice. Pip
