Benefits of Breast Reconstruction

Improved Self-Esteem: Enhances self-confidence and emotional well-being.
Clothing Fit: Allows for more clothing options and better fit.
Emotional Healing: Supports emotional recovery after breast cancer treatment.
Personal Empowerment: Provides women with more control over their bodies.
Why Choose Breast Reconstruction Surgery?
Most commonly breast reconstruction surgery is tailored for women who suffer from the removal of internal and/or external tissues of the breasts due to breast cancer.
However, reconstruction breast surgery may be necessary if a previous breast surgery had resulted in complications.
When Will I See the Results of the Surgery?
Results are visible immediately, but final results may take some time due to the gradual resolution of swelling.
Breast reconstruction is a personal decision, and it’s crucial to discuss options, expectations, and potential risks with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine the most suitable approach for your individual needs.

Downtime The recovery period will depend on the extent of surgery (1-3 weeks).
Most patients can begin to get back to normal activities within 6 to 8 weeks.
Types of Breast Reconstruction
Breast reconstruction is a reconstructive surgery, not a cosmetic procedure. There are various techniques, including:
Implant Reconstruction: Involves using an implant to restore breast volume post-mastectomy. It can be done in two stages with a temporary expander or in a single stage using a biologic dermal mesh.
Latissimus Dorsi Flap Reconstruction: Uses muscle, fat, and skin from the back, keeping blood supply intact, to create a breast shape. This can be done with or without an implant.
DIEP Flap: Transfers skin and fat from the lower abdomen to the chest, combining a tummy tuck with breast reconstruction. Blood vessels from the donor site are connected to chest vessels using microsurgery.
Fat Injection: Harvests fat from other body areas, purifies it, and injects it into the breasts. Typically used as an adjunct to other reconstruction techniques for enhancing results.
