Breast Reconstruction After Breast Cancer - Los Angeles, CA

Hi, back in 2005 I had breast cancer and had a mastectomy . I waited one year to do reconstruction. I had a free tram flap.they take the fat from your stomach and tunnel blood vessels up under your chest wall and use your own fat as a breast. Then you got a kind of tummy tuck after the fat is removed. My doctor was Andrew Dalio at UCLA. He did a fabulous job. The breast I show you is actually the fat from my stomach. I never bothered to get a nipple made. My insurance paid for this. By law your insurance has to pay for your reconstruction.
