Breast Cancer Reconstruction
in New York and New Jersey
Our board-certified plastic surgeons combine advanced technique with a deeply personal approach, so every result reflects the body you’ve always envisioned, not a template.
Aesthetic
Flat Closure
This approach removes remaining breast tissue and contours the chest wall to create a smooth, symmetrical flat profile after mastectomy. The technique focuses on careful skin shaping and scar placement to produce a clean chest line and comfortable, long-term results.
Implant-Based
Reconstruction
Implant-based reconstruction uses tissue expanders or implants to rebuild breast shape after mastectomy. It restores volume and symmetry with a smooth, natural contour, often through staged steps that allow the chest to heal and gradually achieve the desired shape.
Lymphedema Surgery
Lymphedema procedures improve lymphatic drainage and reduce swelling in the arm or chest after cancer treatment. Techniques such as lymphatic bypass or lymph node transfer help restore comfort, mobility, and a more natural appearance in the affected area.
Male Breast
Reconstruction
Male breast reconstruction restores a natural chest contour after mastectomy for breast cancer or risk-reducing surgery. The approach focuses on creating a flat, defined shape with clean lines and symmetry that aligns with masculine chest anatomy.
Nipple & Areolar
Reconstruction
Nipple and areolar reconstruction restores the appearance of the nipple through surgical shaping, tattooing, or a combination of both. It adds natural detail and symmetry to the reconstructed breast, completing the final stage of the reconstruction process.
Natural Tissue
Flap Reconstruction
Natural tissue flap reconstruction uses skin and fat from another area of the body to rebuild the breast without implants. This technique creates a soft, warm, naturally contoured breast with long-lasting results and a shape that changes with the body over time.
Preserving
Nipple Sensation
This approach focuses on protecting or reconnecting nerves during mastectomy or reconstruction to support the return of nipple sensation. It enhances long-term comfort and creates a more natural-feeling result as healing progresses.
Oncoplastic Reduction
Oncoplastic reduction combines lumpectomy with breast reshaping to remove cancer while improving breast symmetry and contour. It creates a lifted, balanced shape and helps maintain a natural appearance after breast-conserving surgery.
Revision Reconstruction
Revision reconstruction refines or corrects results from previous surgeries, addressing concerns such as asymmetry, contour irregularities, or changes over time. It restores a smoother, more natural shape with improved balance and comfort.
