The timing of your breast reconstruction is based on several things. Some patients decide to have their breast(s) reconstructed at the same time as their mastectomy, while others prefer to wait. Dr. Maglic suggests you schedule an appointment for a consultation following your cancer diagnosis so you can begin considering your options and when you want to have reconstruction surgery. If you decide to have reconstruction at the same time as your breast cancer treatment, Dr. Maglic can work with your oncology team to plan your surgery.
