Reconstructive plastic surgery focuses on restoring form and function to areas of the body affected by trauma, congenital abnormalities, disease, or surgery. This field emphasizes improving both physical functionality and aesthetic appearance. Here’s an in-depth look at reconstructive plastic surgery services (excluding facial procedures):
Breast Reconstruction
- Post-Mastectomy Reconstruction: Rebuilding the breast shape after a mastectomy, which can include options like implant-based reconstruction or flap techniques (e.g., DIEP, TRAM, and latissimus dorsi flaps).
- Correction of Asymmetry and Breast Implants: Addresses differences in breast size or shape and offers implant replacements or modifications to match a natural look.
- Reduction and Lift: Reduction mammoplasty relieves discomfort from overly large breasts, while mastopexy (breast lift) restores shape and position.
Body Contouring after Weight Loss
- Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck): Removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen, especially following significant weight loss, improving core stability and appearance.
- Arm Lift (Brachioplasty): Removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms to address sagging and achieve a smoother contour.
- Thigh Lift: Reshapes the thighs by removing excess skin and fat for improved tone and definition.
- Lower Body Lift: Includes procedures that lift and tighten loose skin on the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.
Hand and Upper Extremity Reconstruction
- Carpal Tunnel Release: Surgical intervention for carpal tunnel syndrome to relieve nerve compression and restore hand function.
- Tendon and Nerve Repair: Corrects damage from injury or disease in tendons and nerves, essential for restoring grip and hand movement.
- Dupuytren’s Contracture Release: Treats the hand deformity caused by tightening of tissue under the skin of the palm and fingers.
- Replantation and Complex Trauma Repair: In cases of severe hand trauma or amputations, surgical techniques can restore and reattach limbs or digits, maintaining maximum possible function.

Reconstruction after burns
- Scar Revision: Improves the appearance of scars caused by burns and addresses functional limitations from contractures.
- Skin Grafting: Transfers skin from one part of the body to another to treat severe burn injuries and improve healing.
- Tissue stretching (Expander dermotension): Stretches existing, healthy skin over a burned area to replace damaged skin and minimize scarring.
Reconstruction after Cancer Treatments
- Limb Salvage Surgery: Often used following bone cancer surgeries, this reconstructs the limb to avoid amputation.
- Lymphatic Surgery: For patients with lymphedema after lymph node removal, options include lymphatic bypass or lymph node transfer to improve drainage and reduce swelling.
Each of these services supports physical healing and functional restoration, with a commitment to achieving aesthetically balanced outcomes. Reconstructive plastic surgery is designed to help individuals recover both physically and emotionally after life-altering events, chronic conditions, or congenital issues.
