At Tran Plastic Surgery, Dr. Tran specializes in Breast Reconstruction Services designed to restore the natural look and feel of the breasts after mastectomy, lumpectomy, or trauma. Our goal is to help women regain confidence and feel whole again by carefully reconstructing the breasts to achieve balance, shape, and symmetry.
Every patient’s journey is unique. Some women prefer a result that closely matches their original breast(s), while others choose a different size or contour that better reflects their personal goals. When only one breast requires reconstruction, complementary procedures such as a breast lift, breast reduction, or breast augmentation may be performed on the opposite breast to achieve natural balance and symmetry.

Common Reasons for Breast Reconstruction
1. Mastectomy
A mastectomy, the surgical removal of breast tissue, is one of the most common treatments for breast cancer. It may also be performed as a preventive measure for women at high risk of developing breast cancer.
Depending on your health needs, breast reconstruction may be performed immediately during the mastectomy or delayed until after healing and additional treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation. Dr. Tran will guide you through the timing that best supports your recovery and long-term outcome.
2. Nipple & Areola Reconstruction
For many women, restoring the nipple and areola is a vital part of achieving a natural appearance. Dr. Tran offers several advanced techniques to preserve or recreate the nipple, tailored to each patient’s goals. These details will be fully discussed during your consultation.
Breast Reconstruction Service Options
1. Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction
This technique involves a tissue expander and breast implant. The expander is placed beneath the chest muscle to gradually stretch the skin and tissue. Over several weeks, it is filled with saline until enough space is created for a permanent implant.
-
Benefits: Less invasive than flap procedures, shorter surgery time, and quicker recovery.
-
Considerations: May require multiple office visits to fill the expander and achieve final results.
2. Tissue Flap Breast Reconstruction
In this method, Dr. Tran uses the patient’s own tissue from areas such as the abdomen, thigh, or back to rebuild the breast. This can be performed with or without an implant. The flap can remain connected to its original blood supply (pedicled flap) or be transplanted as a graft (free flap).
-
Benefits: Provides a more natural look and feel.
-
Considerations: Longer recovery due to donor site healing, but often results in highly realistic breast contours.
