Instead of having artificial implants inserted, you can have a new breast mound built or constructed using your own tissue. The tissue most commonly comes from your abdomen.
In this intricate microsurgery procedure, tissue from the lower abdomen is disconnected from its blood supply, transferred to the chest, and reconnected to a new blood supply to create a breast. The result of free flap breast reconstruction is a more natural look and feel for the patient, as well as one that ages more naturally.
