Breast Reconstruction Benefits

beautiful girl with magnificent breasts chic. If you’ve had a mastectomy or are facing one, you may be wondering about breast reconstruction. There are many benefits to breast reconstruction surgery, from improved self-esteem to a more natural appearance. Read on to learn more about the options available to you and the benefits of each.

Breast reconstruction is a type of surgery that restores the shape of the breast after a mastectomy. A mastectomy is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of the breast. Breast reconstruction has several benefits. For instance, the loss of breasts can be psychologically traumatic for most ladies. This can negatively impact their body image and sexuality.

But breast reconstruction has numerous benefits, including improving overall satisfaction levels, self-esteem, body image, and feeling attractive. It can also give a more balanced look to your chest, especially when wearing a swimsuit or a bra. When performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, breast reconstruction surgery is usually successful in creating a natural-looking breast shape.

The quality of life also seems to improve among women undergoing reconstructive surgery. In fact, a study published in the National Library of Medicine (NCBI) showed that the quality of life among women who’ve undergone this procedure was similar to that of the general population after one year of the procedure. Not only that, but the same study found that the overall satisfaction, sexual well-being, and psychological well-being of patients went up as early as three weeks after the procedure.

It’s been said that one of the best ways to get over a bad experience is to turn it into a positive. For many women, breast reconstruction surgery after cancer is just that – turning a negative experience into something positive. Breast reconstruction can improve your self-image and body image and make you feel more comfortable in your own skin.

However, as with any surgery, risks and potential complications are involved. Also, despite all the benefits of breast reconstruction, this procedure is not for everyone.

For such reasons, you should talk with a professional plastic surgeon to find out if it is right for you. At American Surgical Arts, Dr. Sean Bidic and the rest of the team strive to provide patients with the best options and techniques at their practice in Mullica, New Jersey.
