Breast reconstruction is a surgical procedure that rebuilds a woman’s breast following a breast removal due to cancer or other medical conditions. This procedure aims to restore the breast’s shape and size, providing a sense of normalcy and confidence. Different techniques can be used to achieve the desired outcome. This is a valuable option that can help women regain both their physical and emotional well-being after breast cancer treatment.
Your new breast will not be a replica of your natural one, but the contour can often be restored for a similar silhouette. Usually, expanders and implants are used for breast restoration. Since there’s no flap donor site, donor-site surgery is avoided. Otherwise, flap surgery, a complex breast reconstruction method where the surgeon relocates skin, muscle, fat, and blood vessels to create a new breast mound, will be considered.
During the recovery stage, you may experience fatigue and discomfort for a few weeks, but pain medication can help. Drainage tubes may be temporarily used to remove excess fluids. Wearing a support bra reduces swelling and provides healing support. You’ll have absorbable stitches that don’t require removal. Returning to regular activities can take up to 6 weeks or more, with potential restrictions. Adhere to Dr Pinky’s advice and guidance.
