Making a breast reconstruction decision? Wondering about going flat?

If you are facing a mastectomy and deciding between breast mound reconstruction and aesthetic flat closure (going flat), you may be getting a lot of clinical explanations, limited visuals, and incomplete narratives. How do we know? This was Still’s founder’s experience, and a common one for many.

What’s often missing in breast reconstruction consultations is the answer to this question: What does going flat actually look like and feel like to live with—will I still feel like me?

Still has answers.

MADE FOR YOU—BECAUSE WE’VE BEEN THERE

Still is your resource for learning what the experience of going flat and living flat can be like.


A view you’re not getting elsewhere.

Still’s resources share the real, long-term lived experiences of individuals who chose to go flat after mastectomy—and insights about going flat that healthcare providers often don’t have.



Still shows it how it is.

  • Not summaries

  • Not before-and-after snapshots.

  • Not filtered outcomes.

Still provides real context that can make a breast reconstruction decision clearer.

Real Stories. Real Bodies. Real lives.

You may have read snippets of stories and seen photos of people that have gone flat in your doctor’s office or on social media. But what’s relevant to you and your story? Enter Still’s open and diverse approach.


Still goes deeper and wider.

  • Complete unfiltered personal journeys, from decision through long-term outcome

  • Nuanced experiences across ages, identities, and life stages

  • What aesthetic flat closure can look like on different body types

  • The emotional, physical, and social realities that unfold over time

  • Insights that are rarely documented or openly shared elsewhere


A beautiful message society doesn’t tell.

The societal narrative says that women cannot be whole, happy, feminine without breasts. Yet around 60% of women who have mastectomies choose to go flat.


Still shares what many know firsthand.

  • Flat is not a concession—but a powerfully beautiful first choice

  • The benefits of going flat go way beyond the medical benefits

  • That flat is unequivocally beautiful—despite what society says

  • Those that choose to go flat are not sitting around, languishing and despondent—they are Still themselves, Still strong, Still fabulous…
