Breast & Nipple Reconstruction- Fort Worth, TX
Breast reconstruction is the process through which a patient with breast cancer has restored ‘breasts’ through either implant and/or tissue based techniques. Reconstruction is planned when a breast cancer diagnosis is first received and generally combined with the mastectomy…either one breast or both depending on many factors. Reconstruction is most commonly a staged technique requiring a series of surgeries with the timing influenced by the need for chemotherapy and/or radiation.
