  • Breast Reconstruction
    Patient 162

    Age: 58 Gender: F
    Height: 5' 5" Weight: 130
    Recon Procedures: TRAM Flap
    Implants: None
    Nipple Notes: The nipple reconstruction was performed via a modified skate flap 3 months after the second stage of reconstruction. When the flap is appropriately constructed there will be good blood supply to allow it to survive with good projection.
    Notes: The expander was never filled. The patient was happy with the size of the TRAM flap so the expander was removed.

    **Individual results may vary. You will be able to see more patient before and after photos during your consultation. Photos are of actual Hess Plastic Surgery patients and are shown with permission.

    This patient underwent a right modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.  She then underwent a right pedicled TRAM flap with tissue expander reconstruction.  To match the left breast with the reconstructed right breast a breast lift was performed.  These early post operative pictures demonstrate good symmetry and shape.  The scars will fade and eventually turn white leaving little evidence of breast reconstruction.
