Surgery details: Preventative double mastectomy with aesthetic flat closure (AFC). Nipples removed.

 

“I was afraid I would hate myself after the surgery, but I actually love the way my body looks now. I think AFC really suits me. Although I occasionally feel self-conscious and would have preferred to not have DMX at all, I do not pine for my breasts and do not regret having the surgery.”
