Breast Reconstruction Can Be Performed Right After A Mastectomy, Or Up To Three Months After
I have been wondering when breast reconstruction can be performed. I did some online research and found a Chicago plastic surgeon’s website with my answer. It says, “The most common surgical procedure to reduce the physical deformity following mastectomy is referred to as a breast reconstruction. This is a staged procedure, that is, the surgeon first inserts a tissue expander either at the time of the mastectomy or as a delayed procedure approximately three months later.”
