Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Breast Reconstruction: Breast cancer surgery, such as mastectomy, can often result in changes to a woman’s breast appearance. Our plastic and reconstructive surgeons specialize in various techniques of breast reconstruction, including implants, tissue expanders, and autologous tissue transfer, to restore a natural-looking breast contour and symmetry.
Facial Reconstruction: Head and neck cancers or cancer surgeries in these areas can significantly impact a patient’s facial appearance and function. Our plastic surgeons are skilled in various facial reconstruction techniques, including skin grafts, tissue flaps, and microvascular surgery, to restore facial aesthetics and preserve essential functions such as speech and swallowing.
Body Contouring: Cancer surgeries, such as tumor removal or lymph node dissection, may lead to changes in body shape and contour. Our plastic surgeons offer body contouring procedures, such as liposuction, abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), and thigh lift, to improve body symmetry and restore a more youthful appearance.
Scar Revision: Scarring is a common outcome of cancer surgery and other cancer treatments such as radiation therapy. Our plastic surgeons employ advanced techniques to minimize the appearance of scars and improve their texture and color, helping patients feel more comfortable and confident in their skin.
Limb Reconstruction: Cancer surgeries involving the limbs may require reconstructive procedures to restore function and appearance. Our plastic surgeons are experienced in limb reconstruction techniques, including skin grafts, tissue flaps, and limb salvage surgery, to optimize limb function and cosmesis.
Microsurgery: Microsurgery involves intricate procedures performed under magnification to repair and reconstruct small blood vessels, nerves, and tissues. Our plastic surgeons are proficient in microsurgical techniques, enabling them to perform complex reconstructions with precision and success.
Supportive Care: We understand that undergoing reconstructive surgery can be emotionally and physically challenging. Our supportive care team provides comprehensive services, including counseling, wound care, pain management, and rehabilitation, to help patients navigate their recovery and achieve the best possible outcomes.
At Oncoheal Cancer Centre, we are committed to providing compassionate care and innovative reconstructive solutions to help our patients regain confidence and quality of life following cancer treatment.
