Type of Breast Reconstruction:
It reshapes and reforms the breast after mastectomy or lumpectomy. Breast reconstruction can be of two types,

Breast implants:

It restores the shape and volume of the breast by placing it either in front of or behind the muscle present in your chest. The following steps are performed in the procedure of breast implants. The surgeon will start the procedure by administering local or general anesthesia to the patient depending upon his choice
For most of the people, it is a two-stage procedure. During the first stage, a surgeon places a tissue expander that temporarily and gradually stretches the tissue. After completely healing, the surgeon injects the sterile saline or saltwater in the tissue expander every week. When the tissues heal and when the surgeon has added enough saline to the tissue expander in preparation for the implants, the implant’s insertion process begins,
After that, He removes the tissue expanders and places the implant (silicone or saline) into the breast. In some cases, a surgeon places a permanent implant at the time of the mastectomy, without using the tissue expanders.
Flap reconstruction:
