How is Breast Reconstruction Performed?
Your breast reconstruction will be performed by Dr. Breister Ghosh in an accredited outpatient surgical center. Each patient has different needs and goals when seeking breast reconstruction surgery, so your procedure will be custom-tailored to your concerns by Dr. Breister Ghosh. In general, this surgery typically involves using your existing breast tissue and donor tissue to reconstruct the breast or breasts and prepare them for a breast implant. Dr. Bresiter Ghosh will go over the details of your breast reconstruction procedure in detail during your private consultation.
What Can I Expect After My Breast Reconstruction?
Following surgery, drains are usually placed to collect and drain any fluid that may accumulate throughout your recovery period. Dr. Breister Ghosh may also fit you with a compression bra after surgery. This bra will provide your breasts with support, reduce swelling, and promote healthy healing throughout your recovery process. Dr. Breister Ghosh and her team may recommend wearing your compression bra for up to 4 weeks following surgery. During this time, it is recommended you refrain from exercise. Patients should talk with Dr. Breister Ghosh about the physical demands of their job, but should usually plan for around 5 days off work.
How Much Will My Breast Reconstruction Cost?
