Targeted Body Shaping
Breast reconstructive surgery restores the shape, size, and appearance of a breast after mastectomy, significant tissue loss, or trauma from accidents. Techniques include implant-based or autologous tissue reconstruction, with options for immediate or delayed surgery. This procedure aims to enhance body confidence and quality of life for women seeking restoration after breast-related challenges. It often involves a collaborative approach among specialists and is customized to each individual’s needs and preferences. Beyond physical restoration, breast reconstruction can contribute positively to emotional well-being and self-esteem.
The primary goal is to recreate a natural-looking breast contour that harmonizes with the patient's body shape and size.
Patients can choose between implant-based reconstruction using silicone or saline implants, or autologous tissue reconstruction utilizing tissue from other parts of the body like the abdomen or thighs.
Each patient receives a tailored treatment plan based on their unique anatomy, preferences, and medical history.
Reconstruction can be performed immediately after breast surgery or delayed until later, depending on individual circumstances.
Breast reconstruction involves a multidisciplinary team including plastic surgeons, specialists, and support staff to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care.
The procedure aims to improve body image and self-confidence by restoring a natural breast appearance and symmetry.

Women who have undergone mastectomy, lumpectomy, or experienced significant breast tissue loss due to illness or congenital conditions are potential candidates for breast reconstruction.
Breast reconstruction can be done either at the time of mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or at a later stage (delayed reconstruction) after treatment for the illness is completed.
The main types include implant-based reconstruction using silicone or saline implants, and autologous tissue reconstruction using tissue from the patient's own body (such as abdomen, back, or thighs).
Sensation may gradually return to the reconstructed breast over time, but full sensation may not be restored completely.
Recovery time varies depending on the type of reconstruction and individual healing. Patients generally return to their regular activities gradually over a period of weeks to months.
