Breast reconstruction surgery is a procedure that is used to restore the shape and size of the breast after the mastectomy for cancer. During the procedure, surgeons use implants or tissues from other parts of the body to rebuild the breast mound. Breast reconstruction surgery helps improve a patient's quality of life after a mastectomy by restoring the natural appearance of the breast. The advantages of breast reconstruction surgery include a natural looking aesthetic result, improved physical comfort and improved self-image. Reconstruction surgery also can help restore normal body image and self-esteem and can provide psychological healing to those who have gone through the trauma of breast cancer. Patients can also find relief from physical pain caused by a mastectomy, and in some cases, surgeons have used reconstruction surgery to reduce the recurrence rates of cancer. The type of reconstruction technique performed will depend on the type of mastectomy procedure, the patient’s anatomy, and desired aesthetic outcome. Commonly performed techniques include tissue expander and implant reconstruction, which uses either an external expandable device or an internal tissue expander to stretch the skin, allowing for placement of a smooth or textured silicone breast implant which will provide the volume and shape of the new breast. Autologous reconstruction is also available, which involves taking tissue from elsewhere in the body and transferring it to the chest to create a new breast mound. Regardless of the breast reconstruction technique, post-surgery recovery usually includes pain medication and wound care. Adherence to post-surgical instructions is key to a successful reconstruction. In any case, it is important to consult with a plastic surgeon regarding the best approach to restoring the breasts after a mastectomy. Breast reconstruction surgery can provide a powerful psychological benefit, and a return to feeling proof-positive after a life-changing experience.
