Where Medicine Meets... Artistry
Breast reconstruction surgery is the best option available to women who have lost one or both breasts due to mastectomy or lumpectomy surgeries or due to accident. In a mastectomy procedure a surgeon removes the entire breast to prevent breast cancer from spreading. Lumpectomy is removal of a breast portion that has a cancerous tumour.
The breast reconstruction surgery option is a tough personal decision. Living without one or both breasts can be psychologically difficult. Getting back breasts by implants or by own tissue of a patient can change a patient’s appearance and can be physically and mentally satisfying. Due to this breast reconstruction surgery is gaining wider acceptance among women.
A client’s initial consultation with the surgeon will help to decide the type and extent of surgery best suited to her. Breast implants involves initially stretching the skin with a tissue expander and then inserting a silicone gel or implant. A tissue flap procedure is to take woman’s own tissue from a body part like thighs or abdomen and transferring it to reconstruct breasts. Nipple and areola reconstruction is done as an outpatient procedure after breast reconstruction is complete.

when i came to dr.yv rao i had one breast that was much smaller and very odd shaped. i had previously had multiple surgeries on my breast due to a reoccurring abcess. i was not very optimistic about it being able to be fixed. at my first appointment dr.yv rao made me feel so much better about my situation. now, 2 months after surgery i am very happy with my results.
i had had previous breast reconstruction but it was not satisfactory. dr yv rao performed a revision to fix the surgery and i am very pleased with the outcome. the end result of my surgery is great!!
after surgery i no longer had pain or discomfort. my new breasts look natural with old mastectomy scars nearly invisible and new scar placement less obvious. i felt confident that dr. holland would give me the best possible outcome. pain and discomfort free, able to move and exercise without problems.
i love the staff they are amazing! i felt very safe. the work was amazing.
