Houston Breast Reconstruction Surgeons – Breast Surgeon in Texas

According to statistics from the American Cancer Society, almost 10 percent of all women will experience some form of breast cancer in their lifetime. Fortunately, as medical technologies and treatments continue to become more sophisticated, breast cancer is becoming more treatable than ever before. In most cases, breast cancer is treated with mastectomy, or a surgical procedure that removes a part of the breast. Some women choose to undergo mastectomy despite not having breast cancer, in order to prevent it in the future.

Following mastectomy, women often feel self-conscious about the appearance of their breasts. Breast reconstruction is a cosmetic breast enhancement procedure that specifically addresses patients' concerns that arise after mastectomy. Using sophisticated technologies, top breast reconstruction surgeons in Houston reshape the breast and nipple area to help women achieve their pre-surgery bustlines. Breast reconstruction is typically covered by health insurance providers, which eases the financial burden for several patients.

Aesthetic surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures for the facial area, body and breast. Less invasive cosmetic procedures can be used for skin treatment. Breast lift and breast reduction are other types of breast surgery typically performed primarily for cosmetic reasons. Visit these pages in our website to learn about these procedures.
