1/3

Kari’s Story

Kari was in her mid-30s when she wanted a breast augmentation. What she discovered was cancer in her milk duct. After nearly 20 years and multiple painful failed reconstructions from other providers, Kari turned to Southwest Breast and Aesthetics for help.

2/3

Heather's Story

Heather had never considered reconstructive surgery following her breast cancer treatments because she didn’t want breast implants. After meeting with her surgeon at Southwest Breast and Aesthetics, she learned that donor tissue from her own body could help give her back her sense of self naturally.

3/3

Sophia's Story

Sophia had dealt with breast cancer before, so when she came to Southwest Breast and Aesthetics, she knew what she wanted. For her, having a surgeon who listened to her story was important. Now, you can, too.

DIEP Flap Reconstruction Surgery

For patients who want to sculpt their bodies during their surgeries in Phoenix DIEP Breast Reconstruction uses the skin from a tummy tuck to reconstruct the breasts.

PAP Flap Reconstruction Surgery

PAP reconstruction surgery uses donor tissue from the upper thighs in order to build the reconstructed breasts. This is an excellent choice for patients who may not have enough abdominal tissue to use as a donor site. LTP flap surgeries are similar to PAP flaps, but take their donor tissue from the outer thigh (“saddlebags”) as opposed to the upper thigh.

Composite Stacked Flap Surgery

Composite stacked flap surgery (also called combined autologous tissue breast reconstruction) is a type of autologous tissue reconstruction that uses multiple flaps to achieve the desired effect. This can include donor tissue from the abdomen, thigh, or hip areas. Our surgeons can also perform tummy tucks and thigh lifts as part of this procedure for an effect that achieves a full body restoration.

Hereditary Breast Reconstruction

Women who carry a gene that predisposes them to breast cancer may decide on mastectomy as a prophylactic (or preventative) measure. Hereditary breast reconstruction can restore the shape and size of the breasts following tissue removal.

Nipple Reconstruction

Nipple reconstruction refers to surgical procedures that use tissue from the area where the new nipple will be located to recreate the appearance of the nipple and areola. While this new nipple will not have the same function as the nipple did before mastectomy, it will attempt to match the size, shape, color, and texture of the original, which can have a profound effect on patient wellbeing.

Implant Reconstruction

Sometimes our patients aren’t eligible for flap reconstruction. Phoenix breast implant reconstruction solves the volume issue by reconstructing the breast and adding an implant (silicone or saline) during the same procedure.

Explant Surgery

Procedures that remove, exchange, or correct past breast surgeries are known as corrective breast revision. Explant surgeries remove implants and restore the breast using other methods decided on by the patient and doctor.

Because so many of our breast reconstruction patients wind up choosing augmentation on their paths to restoration, our surgeons must be adept in all forms of breast augmentation to ensure they have the right solution for each patient. That versatility gives you the freedom to choose the type of breast augmentation Phoenix patients desire to achieve their aesthetic goals.

Breast Implant Removal

Breast Implant Removal

Breast implant removal is a sensitive procedure, both emotionally and physically. As experts in breast revision and restoration surgery, the plastic surgeons at Southwest Breast and Aesthetics are uniquely qualified to provide you with compassionate care through your breast implant removal. They also have the versatility to be able to give you a beautiful form following removal without using implants.

Breast Lift

Breast Lift

While breast augmentation can improve the look of the breasts in many ways, it cannot provide the same type of improvement to position as a breast lift. This procedure takes the breasts and repositions them higher on the body, eliminating the causes of sagging and ptosis (the condition where the nipples point downwards instead of out). Our expert breast lift surgeons tailor each breast lift to the patient’s needs to minimize scarring and avoid unnecessary incisions.

AMAZING! Couldn’t have gone to a better plastic surgeon in the Phoenix and Scottsdale area! He pretty much held my hand through the entire process. Made me feel well taken care of.
