BREAST RECONSTRUCTION
​
Every woman seeking breast reconstruction is unique. Most of the time, breast reconstruction is needed after the removal of the breast gland to treat an existing breast cancer. In other women who have a strong family history of breast cancer or who carry the BRCA gene, reconstruction follows a prophylactic mastectomy designed not to treat, but to reduce the future risk of developing breast cancer. In yet others, reconstruction may be needed to address a defect following lumpectomy or a congenital problem.
