Understanding Breast Reconstruction Options
Implant-Based Reconstruction (Silicone)
When you’re seeking a straightforward approach to breast reconstruction, silicone implants offer a reliable solution. Designed to look and feel natural, these advanced breast implants can help you regain your confidence. Our skilled plastic surgeons select implants that match your body shape and size, ensuring a symmetrical and comfortable result that helps you feel better in your daily life.
Autologous Breast Reconstruction
Your body has incredible healing potential and autologous reconstruction gear that power. Using your own tissue from areas like your abdomen or back, we create a breast that feels completely natural and integrates seamlessly with your body. This approach means no foreign materials and a reconstruction that moves and ages with you, giving you a more organic path to restored confidence.
Flap Reconstruction
Flap reconstruction represents the most advanced technique in breast restoration. By transferring your body’s tissue, our plastic surgeons can create a breast that looks and feels incredibly natural. This method allows for a more personalized approach, using your unique anatomy to rebuild what was lost. You’ll benefit from a reconstruction that not only looks beautiful but feels like a genuine part of you.
