BREAST RECONSTRUCTION
Breast reconstruction surgery might be an option if you had breast surgery to treat cancer or another disease
The decision is entirely yours and you should not feel rushed into making it. Breast reconstruction can be performed at any time, and the best time to have it is the time that suits you.
Reconstructive surgery is complex and must be tailored to your specific needs. The type of surgery you have – lumpectomy, mastectomy, node removal – will have a big influence on the type of reconstructive procedure you require. Dr Hunt will thoroughly explain all of your options in an understanding and supportive environment.

Recovery after Breast Reconstruction Surgery
The recovery period after breast reconstruction surgery can take up to two weeks for most patients. During this time, make sure to take the analgesic medication to alleviate the potential pain and discomfort.
It is best to avoid strenuous physical activities during the first two weeks after breast reconstruction surgery and make sure to take time off from work to allow your body to heal. Here are more recommendations for the recovery period after breast reconstruction surgery:
- Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol for at least two weeks
- Avoid steam rooms and saunas
- Keep the incisions clean and dry at all times
- Have a healthy and balanced diet
- Keep your body hydrated
To avoid risks and complications that could occur during the recovery period make sure to follow Dr Hunt’s indications.
