It was a double mastectomy, but not the one for breast cancer.

The one for breast cancer, people who maybe have the BRCA gene or preventative or they've had cancer and need to have surgery to remove them, that is a little more invasive because that cuts all the muscle, the tissue.

They can't leave your muscle.

And the cuts might not be as straight because they just are scooping out.

My scar is right along my pectoral muscle.

But if you have the BRCA gene one, which is not a plastic surgery, they're removing your pectoral muscles.

Do men and women have basically like the same pectoral muscle?

Women just have mammary glands and basically fat.

It doesn't go straight to organs.

Every part of your body is also covered in a layer of muscle.

you know, put the scar neatly somewhere where it's hidden, just, you know, on where you would have a crease anywhere with your pectoral muscle.
