Restoring Your Body and Confidence After Breast Cancer
Undergoing a mastectomy for breast cancer is an emotional and physical journey. Breast reconstruction is not merely a cosmetic choice; it is an integral part of comprehensive cancer survivorship that restores natural body proportion, clothing freedom, and emotional wholeness.
Dr. Vishal Purohit collaborates closely with surgical oncologists at Jaipur Hospital to offer both immediate reconstruction (performed during the same surgery as the mastectomy) and delayed reconstruction (performed after chemotherapy and radiation are complete). Every surgical plan is customized to your body type, cancer stage, and personal preferences.
Reconstructive Options Tailored to You
1. Autologous Reconstruction (Your Own Tissue)
DIEP Flap (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator): The gold-standard autologous reconstruction. Uses excess skin and fat from your lower abdomen (similar to a tummy tuck) while preserving your abdominal rectus muscles. The tissue feels warm, natural, and permanent, withstanding radiation therapy far better than implants.
Latissimus Dorsi Flap: Transfers supple muscle and tissue from the back, often combined with an implant to restore full projection.
2. Implant-Based Reconstruction
Utilizing prepectoral or subpectoral cohesive anatomical silicone gel implants, often prepared using a temporary tissue expander to gently recreate the skin envelope.
3. Nipple-Areola Reconstruction & Symmetry Surgery
Balancing the other breast with a lift, reduction, or augmentation, accompanied by 3D local flap nipple creation and medical micro-pigmentation tattooing.
