Breast Care Plastic Surgery Clinic

Plastic surgeons at the UCSF Breast Care Plastic Surgery Clinic offer breast reconstruction to women of all ages. Breast reconstruction – surgery to rebuild the shape of a breast – is often an option after mastectomy.

A reconstructed breast will look like a breast but it won't have natural sensation. If you're thinking about reconstruction, talk with a plastic surgeon before your mastectomy. Some women begin reconstruction at the same time as the mastectomy, while others wait several months or even years.

For more information, see our article on breast reconstruction.
