Losing one or both breasts to cancer or other types of trauma is a devastating reality for many women. Breast reconstruction performed by our expert plastic surgeons, Timothy E. Fee, MD, and Jordan A. Bilezikian, MD, will restore and rebuild breasts to a more youthful shape and size.

What Is Breast Reconstruction?

Breast reconstruction refers to a group of surgical procedures that utilize remaining breast tissue, breast implants, donor tissue, or tissue from other areas of your body to restore a woman’s breast shape and size following mastectomy. Breast reconstruction in Jacksonville is used to restore a more natural female contour and to help women regain their sense of femininity and confidence.

Do I Have to Have Implants for a Successful Breast Reconstruction?

Many women elect to have Breast Implants to give the fullness desired after a complete breast removal (Mastectomy) has been performed.

Appropriate candidates may be able to have a reconstruction by transferring their own fat. This often requires more than one procedure to achieve appropriate fullness and will be evaluated by your Plastic Surgeon during your consultation.

Furthermore, some patients may desire to only use their own tissue for reconstruction. This can be a more complicated procedure involving skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from other parts of your body, but it can also be a viable option that produces great results.

What Are the Benefits of Breast Reconstruction?

After struggling with the traumatic circumstances associated with a mastectomy, breast reconstruction in Jacksonville offers the following benefits:

Creates a breast shape that has a more natural appearance and feel.
No need to wear breast prosthetics that can be cumbersome.
Nipple reconstruction and areolar tattooing
Allows for a better fit in clothing
Restores confidence

“Dr Fee and his staff are hands down the best I have worked with. Every person that you encounter on your journey is so compassionate and supportive. Dr. Fee listened to my body concerns and never once tried to offer unnecessary services or extra procedures. He gave me procedure options that suited my comfort level with the results I wanted. From the consultation to surgery day and at all my post-op visits, I was treated like family by him and his staff. It also gives you peace of mind when a practice has its private OR in the office, and the majority of the staff have been there for 5+ years, some 10+. I will absolutely be coming back for my non-invasive services in the future as well.”

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Breast Reconstruction?

Breast reconstruction is ideal for any woman who has lost one or both breasts due to a cancer diagnosis or other types of trauma. Ideal candidates should have adequate breast tissue or donor tissue to reconstruct the breasts. Reconstruction can be done with women who have undergone chemotherapy or radiation treatments.

What Is the Procedure for Breast Reconstruction?

New medical techniques and advances allow for some breast reconstructions to occur immediately following mastectomy, in the hospital setting. The plastic surgeons at Coastal Cosmetic Center also perform breast reconstruction surgery in a delayed fashion—after the mastectomy has healed. This can be performed in their nationally accredited on-site surgery center, Coastal Surgery Center, located in Jacksonville, FL.

What Is the Recovery for Breast Reconstruction?

The recovery time following breast reconstruction in Jacksonville is completely dependent on the specific conditions of each individual patient, and consequently, will vary. A clearer understanding of your post-operative recovery period will be explained once our Plastic Surgeons have the opportunity to evaluate and discuss your case during your consultation.
