A woman who has only a localized portion of her breast removed will not usually have an effect. If the removal is more extensive, the appearance of the breast may be affected. When a woman has her breasts removed, if only the ducts are removed or part of the mammary glands are removed, the effect on the body will generally be less. If the body has a tumor that needs to be removed to a greater extent, the mastectomy may have some cosmetic effects. If necessary, it may also cause psychological stress to the woman. This is because the absence of the mammary glands can cause a woman to lose more confidence in her life. If a woman has a large mammary gland removed, she can go to the hospital to have her breasts restored through autologous reconstruction or prosthetic reconstruction.
