Breast Procedures and Reconstruction

Breast reconstruction is a surgery for people who have had a breast removed (mastectomy) — usually because of breast cancer. The surgery involves rebuilding the breast to restore size and shape. You have a wide variety of options for breast reconstruction at Benefis. We can even work directly with your breast cancer surgeon.

If you need a specific reconstructive surgery, call us for a consultation. Common reconstructive surgeries we provide include:

• Abdominal hernia surgery
• Cancer reconstruction
• Facial reconstruction to repair the face after injury
• Skin cancer surgery
• Trauma reconstructive surgery, including support for wound care

Gender confirmation surgery helps people be more comfortable with a physical appearance that matches who they are. This type of surgery is complex, involving different surgical types. Contact us to discuss how we can help you.

Gynecomastia is a condition that affects males with enlarged breasts due to excess fatty deposits and enlarged nipples. Gynecomastia surgery is male breast reconstruction. During this procedure, we surgically remove enlarged male breast tissue by cutting out the tissue or by using liposuction.

Whether for look, form, or function, our breast plastic surgeries can help you get the look you want to achieve.

• Breast Lift — A breast lift (mastopexy), reconstructs your breast to remove extra fat and skin and tighten breast tissue. You may get a breast lift to reverse the effects of pregnancy, breastfeeding, or dramatic weight loss, which can decrease breast volume, shape, and symmetry.
• Breast Augmentation — Augmentation mammaplasty involves surgically inserting a breast implant prosthesis under the breast’s fatty tissue or muscle. This breast surgery can increase breast size and shape, give your body more balance and symmetry, and bolster self-esteem and confidence.
• Breast Reduction — This surgical technique is designed to reduce or eliminate problems associated with having very large breasts, including pain and discomfort. Removal of surplus fat, skin, and glandular tissue results in smaller, firmer, lighter breasts. Breast reduction makes the breasts more proportionate to your body size and type.
