Hi, I am going to have a double mastectomy May 10, 2010 and my plastic surgeon is going to do my reconstruction. He is using the Brava bra system after I finish chemo. I will wear this at night for 3 weeks to loosen skin in order for him to use my body fat to rebuild breasts. THis is not surgery, it's outpatient process and I will only need 3 or 4 visits to complete this. THis is in Little ROck, Arkansas. You can look at this procedure by googling 'brava bra' Good luck. BTW I am HER2+++, ER+, PR- and don't know anything else about stages, etc.
