Frequenly Asked Questions About Breast Reconstruction

What is Breast Reconstruction surgery?
- Breast Reconstruction is a surgical procedure that aims to restore one or both breasts to their natural size, shape, and appearance after a mastectomy, lumpectomy, or other trauma.
What are the different types of Breast Reconstruction?
- There are two primary types of breast reconstruction: implant-based reconstruction, which involves the use of saline or silicone implants, and autologous or “flap” reconstruction, which uses tissue from another part of your body to create a new breast mound.
When can I have Breast Reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy?
- Breast reconstruction can be done at the same time as the mastectomy (immediate reconstruction), or it can be done after healing from mastectomy and sometimes after additional cancer treatments (delayed reconstruction). The timing depends on various factors including the type of breast cancer, stage, and additional treatments required.
Can I have Breast Reconstruction surgery if I’m going to have radiation therapy?
- Radiation therapy can complicate the reconstruction process and increase the risk of complications. As a result, doctors often recommend waiting until after radiation therapy is completed before proceeding with reconstruction.
