Breast reconstruction is achieved through several plastic surgery techniques that attempt to restore a breast to near-normal shape, appearance and size following a mastectomy. It can be physically and emotionally rewarding procedure for a woman who has lost a breast due to cancer or other condition.
Gregg Anigian, M.D., plastic surgeon on the medical staff at Texas Health Dallas, discusses the different methods of breast reconstruction.
For many women, the creation of a new breast can dramatically improve self-image, self-confidence and quality of life. Although surgery can give you a relatively natural-looking breast, a reconstructed breast will never look or feel exactly the same as the breast that was removed.
Because breast reconstruction is often an important part of a woman's total recovery, reconstructive surgeons on the medical staff offer advanced treatment with attentive personal care. Follow this link to schedule an appointment with one of our plastic surgeons.
