A mastectomy due to breast cancer may often times result in wounded self-esteem and lack of confidence. More commonly women feel stripped and torn from their femininity; but for those women struggling with such issues plastic surgeons may have a viable and brilliant option to boost your confidence again. Thanks to this revolutionary procedure women can not only have new breast implants and augmentations; they may be able to have a nearly perfect nipple replacement. The first women to get this reconstruction done was Christine Davey, 63, she actually had a nipple tattooed onto her reconstructed breast 5 years after her mastectomy.
"The procedure, medically dubbed areola pigmentation, recreates the nipple lost during breast removal and often helps to boost women's self-esteem, which is so often damaged as a result of the operation."
