Breast Prosthesis Surgery
We know that the lifestyle, stress and eating habits brought about by the changing world conditions cause the cancer phenomenon to become more massive in the world. This disease, which has many types, is the type that knocks the door the most in women, breast cancer. Although one out of every nine women will encounter breast cancer at some point in their life, the success rate in breast cancer treatments is quite high. In this way, most women manage to overcome this disease, which is very easy to diagnose and treat compared to other types.
It is very common for patients with breast cancer to be deeply affected and worried. But at this point, the most important issue that should not be forgotten is the importance of the psychology of the person in the fight against the disease. In order for the treatment period not to turn into a crisis and not to adversely affect the quality of life, the priority in the fight against breast cancer, as in all types of cancer, is to have a good psychology. One of the most intense concerns of women with breast cancer is breast loss during the operation to be treated. Since breasts are one of the most important symbols of femininity and an element that women cannot disregard even when it comes to health. No need to worry though! Because even if breast cancer causes the loss of the breast, it is a tissue that can be replaced by aesthetic operations with today’s technology. For this reason, instead of being demoralized and giving up, it is best to be strong and focus on surviving the disease by fighting cancer.
What is Breast Prosthesis Surgery? When Should It Be Done?
Breast prosthesis surgery; It is the reconstruction performed to reconstruct the breast as a result of congenital, trauma or removal of the breast due to cancer, which is very common today. This operation can be performed with two different methods, with implants (prosthesis) or with the person’s own tissues. While the general surgeon takes the breast tissue and the nipple, the plastic surgeon places the tissue expander on the area where the breast tissue is drained and expands the skin. It then creates a pocket to place the permanent prosthesis. One month after the surgery, the tissue expander begins to inflate by injection. At certain times, the patient is treated as an outpatient. The inside balloon is inflated by injecting serum into the breast with tissue expander. In the second operation, the permanent prosthesis is placed and the procedure is completed. The operation can be performed simultaneously with general surgery, or it can be performed in patients who have received chemotherapy and radiotherapy years ago.
Does Breast Prosthesis Affect the Treatment Process of the Disease?
The tissue expander placed on the breast does not interfere with chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The pocket created in this process is prepared for the second operation. Then, after chemotherapy is over and her body is in a propriate condition that can take general anesthesia, the healing process is completed by removing the tissue expander and putting the breast prosthesis used in breast augmentation in the second surgery. In the second surgery, the good thing is that if there is a need reshapening, lifting or reducing the other healthy breast, it is done as well, making both breasts look beautiful, natural and healthy.
How Is the Nipple Made?
“Flap surgery” is one of the indispensable special techniques of plastic surgery. With flap surgery, a tiny nipple can be created by using adjacent tissues and soft tissues. When this islet of skin is placed on the breast, the patient has a nipple in appearance.
How is the Healing Process?
After the change, the permanent prosthesis needs to be seated and the breast needs to be shaped. In addition, the recovery, edema and shaping of the other breast takes at least one to one and a half months. Of course, you don’t have to wait that long to participate in social life. However, it is useful to consider this period for heavy physical activities.

Where Should the Surgical Operation Be Performed on Breast Prosthesis?
In the report prepared by the International Society of Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) on aesthetic procedures, Thailand, Mexico and Turkey stand out as the countries that take the pulse of international aesthetic surgery. Turkey stands out from other countries with its affordable price policy as well as successful operations performed by experienced and talented surgeons with high technology and quality equipment. Due to health tourism policies, the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey frequently inspects the competencies, physical facilities and price policies of institutions that can accept international patients. In this way, the budget allocated for flight, accommodation and treatment by patients coming to Turkey for treatment is much more advantageous than a treatment in their own country. Moreover, Turkish surgeons carry out studies recognized by the world’s leading academies on the most complex reconstructive operations that are congenital or can occur after cancer.
