Goop,
Sept 2007 I had silicone put into my reconstrution (DIEP) that I had done prior. It did not look all that great the first wk post surgery. It took a few wks for it to settle down and by one month it looked really good. It is now about 6 months and I LOVE the natural look of the silicone implants.
