For reasons related to safety and achieving superior aesthetic results, Dr. Rad often performs breast cancer reconstruction in several stages:
Stage 1: A tissue expander is placed at the time of a mastectomy. This acts as a spacer to hold the breast shape until stage 2.
Stage 2: After a 3 to 9 month healing period (depending on whether radiation is needed), the tissue expander is removed and implant or tissue reconstruction is done.
Stage 3: An outpatient touch-up procedure is usually (but not always) necessary to achieve symmetry - this can involve scar revision, fat grafting and/or breast lift on the normal side.
