Loose skin after breast cancer

Hi, back in 2020 I had surgery for breast cancer. Since having my chemo & radiotherapy, I've actually lost a fair bit of weight and am wondering WHAT I can do about the loose, wrinkly skin that I've been left with? I moisturise regularly and I'm a bit stumped as to what else I can do.

Thanks Sharon

Re: Loose skin after breast cancer

Dear Sharon,
I would recommend you look into having a breast uplift, since this is a common concern among women with a history of breast issues. Your starting point is to discuss your concerns at the next follow up with the breast surgery team.
