What is Breast Reconstruction?
Breast reconstruction is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring the shape, size, and appearance of the breast following mastectomy or injury. This procedure helps patients regain their confidence and sense of wholeness after breast cancer surgery or trauma. Dr. Swaroop Singh Gambhir, a skilled and compassionate surgeon, offers advanced breast reconstruction options tailored to each patient’s individual needs and health goals.
Why Consider Breast Reconstruction?
Breast reconstruction can play a significant role in the emotional and psychological recovery of individuals who have undergone mastectomy. By restoring the natural appearance of the breast, patients may feel more complete and regain a positive body image. Breast reconstruction can be done immediately following the mastectomy or at a later stage, depending on the patient’s health, treatment plan, and preferences.
Types of Breast Reconstruction
There are two main methods of breast reconstruction: implant-based reconstruction and autologous reconstruction (using the patient’s own tissue). Both methods aim to create a breast mound that is aesthetically pleasing, but the approach differs based on individual factors like body type, preferences, and medical history.
Implant-Based Reconstruction:
This method involves the placement of silicone or saline implants to rebuild the breast. The implant may be placed under the chest muscle or directly under the skin, depending on the patient’s anatomy and the extent of tissue removal. Dr. Swaroop Singh Gambhir takes great care to select the most suitable implant type and size to ensure natural-looking results.
Autologous (Tissue-Based) Reconstruction:
This approach uses tissue from another part of the patient’s body (such as the abdomen, back, or thighs) to create a new breast mound. Autologous reconstruction is often preferred for patients who do not want implants or have insufficient tissue for implant-based reconstruction. It offers a more natural feel and appearance as it uses the patient’s own tissue, which also avoids the risk of implant complications.

FAQ
Immediate breast reconstruction is performed at the same time as the mastectomy, while delayed breast reconstruction takes place after the mastectomy, often after chemotherapy or radiation treatments. The choice depends on the patient’s health, preferences, and treatment plan.
The best method depends on several factors, including the patient’s body type, medical history, and personal preferences. Common methods include implant-based reconstruction and autologous tissue reconstruction (using your own tissue). Dr. Swaroop Singh Gambhir often prefers autologous tissue procedures, such as the DIEP flap, which preserves abdominal muscle and provides natural results.
The duration of the surgery depends on the technique used. Most procedures take between 2 to 6 hours. This can vary based on whether it is a simple implant reconstruction or a more complex tissue-based procedure.
Recovery time varies depending on the procedure performed. For autologous tissue reconstruction, recovery can take 2 to 3 weeks, while implant-based reconstructions typically have a shorter recovery period of 1 to 2 weeks. Your doctor will provide specific aftercare instructions to support the healing process.
Like any surgery, breast reconstruction carries some risks, such as infection, scarring, or complications related to anesthesia. However, the risk can be minimized by choosing an experienced surgeon and following post-operative care instructions. Your surgeon will discuss all potential risks with you before the procedure.
