Breast Cancer Reconstruction Surgery

Breast Reconstruction Surgery is a procedure to rebuild the shape, appearance, and symmetry of one or both breasts after a mastectomy (breast removal) or lumpectomy due to breast cancer. This surgery is a vital part of the healing journey for many women, helping to restore not only the physical appearance of the breast but also emotional well-being, body image, and self-confidence.

Why Choose Breast Reconstruction?

·         Restores natural breast shape and contour after cancer treatment

·         Enhances body balance and symmetry in and out of clothing

·         Supports emotional healing and confidence

·         Can be performed at the time of mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or months/years later (delayed reconstruction)

·         Personalized approach based on your medical history, body type, and preferences

Types of Breast Reconstruction

1. Implant-Based Reconstruction

·         Involves placing a saline or silicone implant to recreate the breast mound

·         May involve a tissue expander placed first to stretch the skin

·         Typically less invasive with shorter recovery time

2. Autologous (Flap) Reconstruction

·         Uses tissue from your own body (e.g., abdomen, back, thighs)

·         Common techniques: DIEP flap, TRAM flap, LAT flap

·         Provides a more natural feel and appearance

3. Combination Reconstruction

·         Combines implants and your own tissue for optimal shape and support

4. Nipple & Areola Reconstruction (optional)

·         Can be done in a later stage using surgical techniques or 3D tattooing

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a candidate for breast reconstruction if:

·         You have undergone or plan to undergo mastectomy or lumpectomy

Recovery & Results

·         Recovery depends on the method used — from 1 to 6 weeks
