Breast Reconstruction Basics
Advertisement
This surgery is designed to create a breast that matches your other in terms of size and shape. If you've lost a breast due to a mastectomy, or if one of your breasts is underdeveloped, you can benefit from this surgery. Cancer survivors find that it helps them heal emotionally, and women with an undersized breast report a real boost to their self-esteem.
How it's done
If you've had a mastectomy, a more radical approach to this surgery may be needed. Tissue and skin may be removed from your back, or your surgeon may choose to move some of your abdominal muscles to your chest; while, this is complicated surgery, it will definitely provide you with a flatter tummy!
Recovery
5 days to 2 weeks.
Complications
You may experience circulation problems with your new skin, and weakness where muscles and tissue have been removed.
Cost
Covered by provincial health plans.
