Miami Breast Center

Can breast reconstruction with fat be done after a skin sparing mastectomy or lumpectomy?

Yes, our procedure provides the best reconstruction after both: skin sparing mastectomy and lumpectomy. It works extremely well after lumpectomy, and it will help treat the radiation damage your might have developed after the lumpectomy. Radiation causes changes to you skin (pain, redness, increased pigmentation, fibrosis, etc.). These can be reversed using fat grafting. We will therefore treat both the breast deformity as well as the secondary effects of radiation on your tissues.
