Common questions
Can I have reconstruction?
Reconstruction is often possible, either at the same time as the mastectomy or as a separate later procedure.
Will I need treatment after surgery?
This depends on the pathology; some people need radiotherapy, chemotherapy or hormone therapy afterwards.
How long until I recover?
Most people return to light activity within a few weeks, with full recovery taking longer if reconstruction is done.
