What is a Breast Reconstruction?

Breast reconstruction surgery restores breast shape after a mastectomy, primarily using two methods: implant-based reconstruction or flap reconstruction, where tissue from another part of the body is used.
The goal is to create a breast that resembles a natural breast in shape and size.

Why it's done?

Breast reconstruction is performed to restore the shape and appearance of a breast following mastectomy due to cancer or other diseases, significantly improving psychological well-being and quality of life.
