This 36-year-old woman was found to have a gene that causes breast cancer (BRCA.) Due to a very high risk of developing breast cancer, she elected to have bilateral skin-sparing mastectomies with simultaneous latissimus flaps and tissue expanders. At a second stage, she had silicone implants placed and had nipple areolar reconstruction.
This 29 year old woman was BRCA positive and had breast cancer. She 5'11" and weighed 150 pounds. Tissue expanders were placed at the time of her bilateral nipple-sparing mastectomies. Three months later, she 655cc cohesive gel ("Gummy Bear") implants placed.
This 44 year old underwent bilateral nipple-sparing mastectomies for a left breast cancer. Tissue expanders were placed at the time of her mastectomies and subsequently replaced with 740 cc cohesive gel (gummy bear) implants.
This 42 year old developed a left breast cancer following an augmentation mastopexy. In order to maintain her breast volume, she underwent bilateral latissimus flaps with tissue expanders at the time of her mastectomies. Subsequently, her expanders were replaced with 700cc round, smooth silicone implants.
