Frequently Asked Questions about Breast Reconstruction
Can breast reconstruction restore sensation to my breast?
While reconstruction can restore the breast's appearance, it may not fully restore sensation. Some patients regain partial sensation over time, and advances in surgical techniques continue to improve outcomes.
What are the different types of breast reconstruction procedures?
There are primarily two types: implant-based reconstruction and autologous (flap) reconstruction. Implant-based reconstruction uses saline or silicone implants, while autologous reconstruction utilizes tissue transplanted from another part of your body, such as the abdomen or back.
When is the appropriate time to undergo breast reconstruction?
Breast reconstruction can be performed immediately during the mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or at a later date (delayed reconstruction). The timing depends on individual circumstances, including cancer treatment plans and personal preferences.
