Lumpectomy with breast reduction

  • Oncoplastic breast surgery is a procedure that combines tumor removal with reconstruction.
  • After our surgeons perform a lumpectomy, our plastic surgeons reconstruct the breast to restore its natural appearance.
  • Oncoplastic provides you with a symmetrical look in a single surgery, even if you had a larger lump removed.

 

Mastectomy

  • Mastectomy removes your breast tissue, skin and nipple.
  • Our surgeons use mastectomy to treat cancer and to reduce breast cancer risk in high-risk patients.
  • We offer mastectomy with or without reconstruction, depending on your preferences.

 

Nipple-sparing and skin-sparing mastectomy

  • Nipple-sparing mastectomy combines mastectomy and reconstruction in one procedure.
  • Our breast surgeons remove your breast tissue while leaving your breast skin and nipple intact.
  • Cleveland Clinic in Florida is a Center of Excellence for nipple-sparing mastectomy.
  • Another option is a skin-sparing mastectomy, which removes your nipple and areola but leaves most of your breast skin intact.
  • This technique allows us to perform an immediate reconstruction and avoids scars on your breast.
  • After these procedures, our plastic surgeons reconstruct your breast.
  • We create surgical incisions on the bra line, making scars much less visible.
  • Our anesthesiologists use a safe, long-lasting local anesthetic that allows you to go home the same day with your rebuilt breast.

 

Breast reconstruction

  • We provide a full range of options for breast reconstruction.
  • Our breast surgeons partner with our board-certified plastic surgeons for the best aesthetic outcome.

 

You can choose :

  • Immediate breast reconstruction : Combined mastectomy and reconstruction in one procedure, also called direct-to-implant reconstruction.

 

Delayed breast reconstruction : 

  • Breast reconstruction months or years after a lumpectomy or mastectomy.
  • You choose the timeframe that’s right for you.

 

When you’re ready, we explain your options for reconstruction, which include :

  • DIEP flap : Also called a flap procedure, our surgeons take tissue from another part of your body to reconstruct your breast.
  • Our plastic surgeons pioneered this advanced technique.
  • Usually, we use fat from your abdomen to create the flap.
  • When a DIEP flap isn’t an option, we can often use tissue from your back or body.

 

Silicone or saline breast implants :

  • Synthetic implants are a safe and popular option after mastectomy.
  • We explain the pros and cons of each type of implant and what you can expect.
