Mastectomy and breast reconstruction pros and cons?

Newly diagnosed invasive cell carcinoma grade 3. My tumor is 5 mm. I am trying to decide if I should go with implants or the flap procedure. Any help on recovery times for both as I’m so scared about pain control and healing times. Leaning toward a double mastectomy.
