Breast Reconstruction with Implant

Patient 1

This active, healthy 50 year-old mother of three was found to have a right breast mass. On further evaluation, she in fact had breast cancer involving both breasts. She had bilateral skin and areola-sparing mastectomies and 2-stage breast reconstruction. She had 550cc Moderate Plus Profile silicone gel implants and is seen 9 months after the second stage reconstruction. She decided not to have a nipple reconstruction.
