Breast reconstruction can be performed at the same surgical time of cancer resection (immediate reconstruction), or after the end of treatment with the cancer group (late reconstruction).
It is necessary that the patient has an acceptable health condition, and the residual tissue of the breast is free of cancer cells.
Reconstruction can be performed with neighboring or distant tissues (regional or microsurgical flaps), or by fatty grafts, prostheses and / or expanders. The surgeon will give you the options that in your case agree.
This process will go hand in hand with the type of surgery that the patient, together with the opinion of the doctor, have decided.
Medically it is impossible to achieve perfect symmetry with the healthy side, however, the volume and appearance will reach an aesthetically pleasing aspect, which will allow the patient to improve their confidence and regain their self-esteem.
