Breast reconstruction surgery
Breast cancer treatment plans can include breast reconstructive surgery. Our experienced surgeons perform advanced microsurgical breast reconstruction using your own tissue to create whole and balanced breasts. This tissue may come from several sites on your body including the abdomen (DIEP flap), back (TAP or lat flap), buttocks (SGAP flap) or thighs (TUG flap). Reconstruction can also be performed using breast implants. Other reconstructive procedures include:
- Nipple reconstruction
- Breast reconstruction revision
