- Patients scheduled for mastectomy can do breast
reconstruction in the same operation, which can have
a big impact on the patient’s psychological well
being.
-Breast reconstruction can be done using silicon implants, fat or muscle flaps from the body, or using a
combination of implants and body muscles.
- Patients who already had a mastectomy can benefit
from doing breast reconstruction even after several years from treatment. To get a good symmetrical result, surgery on the other breast is usually needed.
