Every effort is made to achieve the best possible result from reconstruction.
But results from this type of surgery vary a great deal. When undressed you may find that the reconstructed breast has less of a droop and appears more proud and firmer to the touch than your natural breast. There is often much less sensation in the reconstructed breast. If the shape of the reconstructed breast differs greatly from your natural breast even when wearing underwear it is possible to insert a partial prosthesis into your bra to look more balanced. Breast prostheses come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and skin colours.
