Experienced Providers. Empathetic Care.
A breast reconstruction procedure is commonly performed on women who’ve undergone treatment for breast cancer and a subsequent mastectomy or lumpectomy. Some may also choose this procedure due to a congenital deformity. Regardless of the reason, the decision to reconstruct the area is a highly personal one. Should a patient choose to receive a breast reconstruction in Tuscaloosa, Indian Hills Plastic Surgery can ensure a personalized, compassionate care experience.
How it Works
What to Expect During Breast Reconstruction in Tuscaloosa
Before a breast reconstruction surgery, you’ll meet with Dr. Wallace for an initial consultation to go over your needs and your goals post-procedure. A breast reconstruction may involve one of several different techniques, including saline-filled, silicone gel-filled implants or utilizing your body’s own tissue.
Ultimately, this will depend on factors such as age, lifestyle, and whether or not a patient still requires breast cancer treatment. Dr. Wallace can perform cosmetic surgery on one or both breasts at one of our plastic surgery centers in Tuscaloosa.
