Breast Reconstruction

For many women who have lost a breast during a mastectomy, breast reconstruction represents a meaningful and life re-affirming aspect of recovery after breast cancer. By restoring the breast or the portion of the breast removed, breast reconstruction allows women to return fully to the life they enjoyed before the diagnosis of the cancer.

In the past, the majority of women who had Mastectomy surgery wore an uncomfortable prosthesis in their bras - a breast form made from synthetic materials. The latest technology and advanced techniques have made it possible to create a breast that greatly resembles and feels like a natural one.

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and most patients recover within two to three weeks.
