subject: How Breast Augmentation Relates To The Cure [print this page] Breast augmentation has some unsung benefitsBreast augmentation has some unsung benefits. The operation will not eradicate any disease, of course. The cure for breast cancer could be around the corner in a research lab somewhere. Women everywhere are waiting for that cure. As they wait, many of them are undergoing chemo and mastectomies. Both of these treatments take a lot from and out of a woman. With the chemo treatments, a woman will lose immune system power and her hair. After a mastectomy, she loses defining characteristics of her femininity.
Although a woman may feel disheartened after going through these problems, many of the women who experience them come through strong and ready to face the world and help other women. Breast augmentation that involves reconstructive surgery might be a helpful thing for a woman who has had a mastectomy.
There is so much talk of raising money to find a cure, and that is wonderful. While these women wait for that cure, perhaps this plastic surgery procedure can boost their spirit and help them have even more confidence to face this disease with vigor and help the cause.
Losing one or both breasts can leave any woman feeling insecure about her figure. Breast augmentation after a mastectomy involves reconstructive surgery and breast implants to help the woman look like she never lost anything. The benefits of simply returning to a normal sense of self after such an operation cannot be overstated.
Perhaps you know a woman who has breast cancer and is going to have a mastectomy. Encourage her to look into having this reconstructive plastic surgery in combination with her mastectomy. It may sound overwhelming, but it will be so beneficial to do it in this order.
Maybe you know cancer survivors who cannot afford plastic surgery of this type. Insurance may or may not cover such surgeries. It might depend on what they consider physical and cosmetic. If you know someone who does not have insurance and cannot afford it, you could suggest they set up a website to help raise money for their surgery. Many people would empathize with her plight, and it is possible that she would get the funds for this reconstructive procedure with implants.
If you have the means to help someone who has survived cancer, make every effort to help. All assistance is not monetary. A kind word, listening ear, and even an empathizing nod of the head can make a difference.
