A plastic surgeon specializes in reconstructive surgery (to restore the appearance of surgically removed or injured parts of the body) and cosmetic surgery (to improve the appearance of parts of the body). Women who have had a partial or total mastectomy and desire reconstruction procedures will consult with a plastic surgeon.
Together with your surgical oncologist and any other types of oncologists involved in your treatment, the plastic surgeon can determine the best type and timing for breast reconstruction surgery.
