I have friends that have the nipples tattooed and others that have the

honestly?

They all look fantastic!

Hi , I hope everything goes well for you. Remember to ask any last minute

questions you have before your surgery. There has always been something I forgot

to ask before and because of the anesthesia I didn't remember until I got home

and started coming to my senses.

I have just finished my fourth and hopefully my final surgery. I had

bilateral mastectomies w reconstruction in Feb 05. Its been a long road but I am

glad I did it. This last surgery was nipple and areola recon. Everything went

well as I am sure it will for you. Make sure you have all your perscriptions

filled and ready for you when you get home.

I will light a candle for you and keep you in my thoughts. Theresa

Theresa -

I had breast mound reconstruction at the time of my mastectomy. The plastic

surgeon said he would have to do the nipple and areola recon later. Can you

tell me, where do they get the tissue from to do this part? Does it look at

all natural?

Thank you,

, I think it depends on a lot of what the doctor has experience in

doing first. Sometimes they graft the skin for the nipple from the inner thigh

or I hate to tell anyone this they can use skin from a cadaver. Another is a nip

tuck using the skin on the breast itself that's what I had done. then, they also

do the tattooing at that time. After everything settles down and no complication

with the areaola they inject this new material into the nipple called radiance.

They cannot inject it at the time of the construction because they said that the

body will absorb the radiance material and the nipple will not be firm. So, in

six weeks if all goes well I will be radiant heeheehee.

Or the doc is skimming some off the top of all his patients that is why he

didn't put it in at the time of the recon. Just kidding. My plastic surgeon came

highly recommended.

I did the skin spearing mastectomy in Feb of 05 with tissue expanders. I went

in about every three to four weeks to have them filled to stretch the tissue,

muscle and whatever else needed stretching. Then in Aug. 05, I had the expanders

removed and my implants put in. wahoo. In Nov 05 I had to have a complete lift

on the right side because it had stretched too much and a z-plasty to loosen

things up more on the left side. The left was my trouble side.I had previous

breast cancer in the left breast and the radiation kinda did a number on that

boob. they had to move some tissue around in there to fill up the gap. So, last

Tues. I went in and had the recon. work done. everything looked good until Fri.

evening. The area around my left areola started getting red and irritated. I

called the doc and they put me on more antibiotics with warm compress. So today

it is looking better but the doc wants me to come in to see what might be going

on. More antibiotics. they want to do a

culture maybe some blood work make sure nothing else is going on. But to get

back to your questions as how they look. Not bad. My right one looks almost

normal just 1 week later . My left one well, I think the jury is still out on

that one. It's looking a lot better that is was on Sat. My doc. is 3 hours away

so its like planning a day trip every time I have to go. And my husband bless

his heart takes off work to take me when I am not able to drive myself. Also if

I go with someone I can get in the carpool lane. All my doctors are in Los

Angeles. The freeways can be very hazardous to your health. Luckily, we used to

live there and we know how to get around the famous 405 and 5 freeways there.

Even though we all have bc our bodies react in tons of different ways so ask a

lot of questions and try not to stress out too much. good luck and I hope I

have helped a little. Sorry for rambling on so. theresa

taking back my kids and dogs untill all this is over and I am back

home ,I do know that I will be having both breasts removed I have come

to Idea this is just a new beging in my life the changes that are

ahead ....I posted a picture of a rose in my garden and took this new

rose bud as a sign ,,,,a beginning bud,in life.. comes with

thorns ...to find peace and enjoy what blessing I do have and treat

this breast canser as a next step in life and move forward ...my

coworkers gave me a really nice surprize a wounderful card and a gift

card with some money in it ...it was an emointional day at work ...I

very few that I have not crossed paths with in thease years ...I am

finding so much support ...and offers to help out with my kids and if

I need rides to the Dr. it is so nice to know that hands are out

thier to help me thru this time of stress ...thanks to this group it
