Breast Reconstruction

Surgery may be necessary for benign as well as malignant disorders of the breast. In these cases, tissue may be removed from one or both breasts by a breast surgeon leaving a possible deformity or residual defect.

Breast reconstruction encompasses any number of plastic surgery procedures to restore the original form, shape, and symmetry between the breasts. These techniques include: breast rearrangement or breast reduction-type reconstruction after lumpectomy or partial mastectomy; tissue expander or implant-based reconstruction; autologous “flaps” using tissue from the back or abdomen; fat grafting; nipple-areolar reconstruction; and nipple-areolar tattooing.

Breast reconstruction often includes any procedures on the unaffected breast which are done to restore symmetry between the two breasts. You and your surgeon will discuss the best options for you.
