This week, James E. Craigie, MD, of The Center for Natural Breast Reconstruction answers your question.
Question: Can you fix a bilateral mastectomy gone wrong? My breasts are now hideous to look at and I’m ashamed of my body now. They are lopsided and not even and I’m left with a 2 inch scar across my entire chest.
Answer: It is difficult to know what we might be able to do for you with the information you gave us, but usually something can be done to at least make things somewhat better.
Many of our patients had multiple prior surgeries elsewhere before we met them, and we were able to help many of them. We would be delighted to have our nurse Chris or PA Kim call to discuss your situation in more detail, if you wish.
Have a question about breast reconstruction or post-surgical you’d like answered from our surgical team? Just ask!
