Preventive Mastectomy Reconstruction

Thoughtful reconstruction planning following risk-reducing mastectomy.

Preventive mastectomy reconstruction focuses on restoring breast shape and contour following a prophylactic or risk-reducing mastectomy. Because surgery is planned in advance, reconstruction can often be staged strategically to optimize aesthetic outcomes. Patients seeking this approach often have a personal genetic mutation or a significant family history of breast cancer.

Approaches may include natural tissue reconstruction, implants, or a combination of both.

Some patients are also good candidates for a breast reduction in preparation for a mastecomy in the future.

WHO THIS IS FOR:

  • Are planning a risk-reducing mastectomy

  • Carry a genetic risk for breast cancer

  • Want a proactive, personalized reconstruction plan

Reconstruction may begin with preparatory procedures such as a breast lift or reduction prior to mastectomy. After mastectomy, reconstruction is performed using implants, autologous tissue, or a hybrid approach depending on individual anatomy and goals.
