Breast Reconstruction

When a breast has been removed (mastectomy) because of cancer or other disease, it is possible in most cases to reconstruct a breast similar to a natural breast. A breast reconstruction can be performed as part of the breast removal operation or can be performed months or years later.

Breast reconstruction is performed by specialist Plastic & Reconstructive surgeons and you would be referred to their service to discuss appropriate options of reconstruction.
