Breast Reconstruction
For women who have had to undergo a mastectomy, double mastectomy, or lumpectomy, a breast reconstruction surgery can improve your self-confidence and help you feel like yourself again. There are many different options available to reconstruct the breast and we will discuss the them in detail to you before choosing the most suitable method, because of the variations and sensitivity of the process.
RECOVERY
You’re likely to feel tired and sore for a week or two after implant surgery, and longer after flap procedures. We will give you medicines to control pain and other discomfort. You may be discharged with one or more drains in place, but should be up and around in 6-8 weeks. You will want to avoid any overhead lifting, strenuous sports, and some sexual activities for 4 to 6 weeks after reconstruction.
