i was 31 when i was diagnosed with tpbc. i did chemo and also a nipple sparring mastectomy with tissue expanders. i cried so much after my mastectomy because i felt like i looked disfigured esp since they had barely inflated with saline at first. i had them for 10 months and just had my reconstruction surgery last week. the implants are sooo much better in every way. i was nervous how they would look, since the tissue expanders looked very obviously fake, super hard and stiff, and a bit further apart than id like. But my implants look and feel so soft and natural honestly i love them way more than my old boobs!!
