Dr. Capizzi’s patient is in her 30s (5' 4" tall and 120 lbs.) and was diagnosed with breast cancer in her right breast. Our patient was referred to us via her oncologist. Dr. Capizzi became part of her care team early in her treatment. Patient had breast reconstruction using tissue expander approach.

The first photo captures the patient preoperatively before any surgery. The second photo captures the patient after surgery: bilateral nipple sparing mastectomy with expander placement. After expanders were full they were exchanged for implants.
Implants: Sientra Gummy Bears, Textured Shaped Oval Base High Projection 480cc.
