As with any surgery, depending on your overall health and habits, your complication profile may vary. In breast reconstruction Toledo, there are a variety of options that fit some patients better than others depending on your heath, history, and goals.

It is important that your breast reconstructive surgeon can offer all forms of breast reconstruction in Toledo to be sure that you are being offered all options in breast reconstruction equally. It is imperative that you look at your surgeon’s training history. Surgeons not seeking advanced training after their plastic surgery residency do not have the expertise to offer all the complex nuances of this vast field.

Much of our time is spent with revision breast reconstruction in Toledo. This often requires reversing what has previously been done to eliminate pain or discomfort, removing implants, repositioning implants, and sometimes performing revisional breast reconstruction to improve your aesthetic result or make you feel better.

Recovery or downtime after breast reconstruction or revisional breast surgery will depend on the surgical technique, position of the implant (sub muscular or sub glandular) and patient age and this should be individualized. It is helpful to remember that ‘recovery’ is a process and goes through stages. At EVOLV Plastic Surgery, we have found that extensive patient preoperative teaching and education, specific supplements for healing, post-operative lymphatic and sound wave massage, and LED phototherapy can significantly reduce downtime and improve the recovery experience after breast surgery. Our professional staff will review expected recovery times with you to assist with your post procedure planning.
