Breast Reconstruction

Breast Reconstruction Surgery in Maryland

Serving Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland, Plastic Surgery Services know that understanding your breast reconstruction options can offer a sense of hope for women who have undergone mastectomy or lumpectomy, or for those beginning breast cancer treatment. Plastic surgery can restore your breasts through a variety of ways, either through implant-based reconstruction or autologous (tissue-only) reconstruction. In some cases, the reconstructive process can begin at the same time as your mastectomy, allowing you to wake from your mastectomy with a new breast mound already in place. In other instances, reconstruction can be performed at a later date.

“Such a warm-welcoming place from the moment you walk in the door! The staff and Doctor are friendly and knowledgeable, they provided step by step for the procedure I was getting done which caused me to be calm and excited for it rather than nervous, everything has been going perfect from the surgery to the healing! They went beyond of what I expected. They followed up and were easy to contact when needing assistance with something. Definitely recommend getting cosmetic surgery and the other services they provide, done here! You won’t be disappointed! I can’t say enough good things about this place.” – Real patient review, June 2023

Maryland plastic surgeon Dr. Henry Garazo is a skilled plastic surgeon offering several breast reconstruction options to women after mastectomy. He can not only restore the cancer-affected breast, but reduce, enhance, or lift the other breast to create a symmetrical appearance. Dr. Garazo will work with you and your medical team to create a reconstructive strategy to fit your individual situation. Dr. Garazo and his staff understand that the decision to have breast reconstruction is a personal one. Dr. Garazo can help you understand your options, empowering you to create the strategy that is best for you.

Breast reconstruction must be covered by an insurance policy that covers mastectomy, according to federal law. This insurance includes both the restoration of the cancer-affected breast and surgery on the other breast to create a symmetrical appearance, as well as prostheses and physical complications during all stages of your mastectomy.

“From my consultation until now almost 3 weeks after my surgery these people have been wonderful and very welcoming, one of the friendliest offices I’ve ever walked into. They are very personable and make you feel very comfortable. They show genuine concern about your healing and comfort, they check on you regularly, they see you regularly to insure everything is going as it should. If you think somethings wrong they bring you in immediately without question. They are very kind people and I’m extremely happy with the work that I had done, I don’t think I’ll ever go anywhere else to have “work” done. This office is amazing and his employees are amazing, they are all so sweet and caring. I’d recommend them to everyone.” – Real patient review
