Breast reconstruction
Reconstructive surgery is an integral part of breast cancer treatment, especially after a breast is removed (mastectomy).
It will aim to restore a harmonious shape to the chest after an operation, by reshaping the remaining part of the breast or improving the symmetry of the chest.
Several reconstruction techniques are available and the one used will depend on the type of treatment chosen to treat the cancer.
Breast reconstruction is done as part of the care provided by the Hirslanden Clinique des Grangettes Breast Centre.
Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation is indicated in women with a breast of a volume that they consider insufficient in relation to their morphology. Breast hypoplasia can have several causes: insufficient development of the breast, weight loss, or even pregnancy.
Breast augmentation aims to create a breast of harmonious and natural shape, which respects the morphology of the patient with scars as discreet as possible.
This surgery does not prevent breastfeeding, does not slow down the natural process of breast ptosis due to aging (sagging of the breast) and requires the same monitoring of the breasts by your gynecologist.
