Goldilocks surgery after radiation

cancer123

Hello,

Did anyone get Goldilock breast surgery after getting radiation treatment?

I am wondering the risks of this surgery for patients who already get radiation.

Also, I am a 38C bra person. After this surgery, what is the change that I have a breast-like apperance. Thank you

Here is a link to an older thread regarding this type of surgery. It does not seem as if this type of surgery is offered widely and the thread has been inactive but it may give you some information.

I’m in the same boat… did you proceed?

My plastic surgeon says they call it a “complex flat closure” or something, maybe for billing?
