Breast Reconstruction Before & After Case 6

Dr. O'Brien preformed surgery on this 41 year-old patient with a recent diagnosis of left breast cancer. She elected to proceed with bilateral nipple-sparing mastectomies with the immediate placement of silicone gel implants.  By performing her reconstruction in this manner, she eliminated the 4-6 month time period for the more traditional tissue-expander approach to reconstruction.  She is thrilled with her results.  Aside from the scar along the lower part of her breast, it would be hard to tell that she had breast reconstruction at all.
