A better breast implant after mastectomy

CBS Sunday Morning had a story about a model who, some 20 years ago, underwent a mastectomy and the photo of her scarred chest appeared in the New York Time Magazine. There were many reactions including from someone who said that she kept her scarred chest hidden from husband (really?)

Anyway, the model now decided to have a breast reconstructed and it was done from her own fat cells. No silicone, no foreign material.
