Breast Reconstruction

Restore breast appearance after mastectomy or injury

Breast reconstruction restores the shape, contour and symmetry of the breast after mastectomy or significant breast trauma. Options range from implant-based reconstruction to complex flap procedures using your own tissue — each planned in collaboration with your oncology team where relevant.

Reconstruction can be performed at the same time as a mastectomy (immediate) or at a later stage (delayed), depending on medical circumstances. We work closely with oncologists and breast surgeons to ensure reconstruction planning does not compromise cancer treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can reconstruction be done at the same time as a mastectomy?

Yes — immediate reconstruction is often the preferred approach when medically suitable, as it reduces the total number of surgeries.

Does reconstruction affect cancer surveillance?

No — reconstructed breasts are still monitored appropriately; your oncology team will guide the surveillance plan.
