Breast Reconstruction
Every patient offered a mastectomy should also be offered reconstruction. There are two main approaches:
Implant-based reconstruction: Using a silicone implant to recreate the breast mound. As a BreastSurgANZ-accredited surgeon, Dr Ofri performs implant-based reconstruction, often as an immediate procedure during the same operation as the mastectomy.
Autologous (DIEP) reconstruction: Using tissue from another part of your body (commonly the abdomen) to form a new breast. This is performed in collaboration with a plastic surgeon and can provide a natural result with the added benefit of abdominal contouring.
Dr Ofri takes time to ensure you understand each option, its risks, and the reasoning behind his recommendations, supporting you to make the best choice for your situation.
