Contact UsWhat is breast reconstruction?
Reconstruction surgery for the breasts is performed to restore the chest to an attractive appearance in shape and size after a mastectomy or lumpectomy. It is also used to restore a breast damaged by trauma or a birth defect. Advanced technologies in breast reconstruction surgery make it possible for breast cancer patients to feel whole again and have natural-looking breasts after removal or damage. This surgery generally involves multiple procedures and different stages that can either be performed at the beginning of your cancer treatment or delayed until the treatment is complete. Dr. Husam Elias at The Pacific Coast Center for Oral, Facial & Cosmetic Surgery in Pasadena, CA creates an individualized surgical plan and uses compassion as we work with you to restore your confidence and physical appearance.
What happens during breast reconstruction?
Each breast reconstruction surgery is highly personal and requires a unique consultation with Dr. Elias to determine the best approach for your body. In general, the procedure will involve removing skin and other tissues from areas, such as the abdomen, back, inner thigh, or from places on a donor's body, and grafting it onto the chest. Other techniques apply a tissue expander under the breast wall and then gradually fill it with a saline solution over the course of 4 – 6 months to stretch the skin naturally. Once the final step has been completed for your breast reconstruction, you should wear a medical support bra and you may be given medication by Dr. Elias to minimize discomfort, bleeding, and swelling. Ongoing checks with breast exams and mammograms are critical and highly recommended for your ongoing health.
Pacific Coast Center Reviews
I was recommend by a friend who got her breast and BBL done by Dr. Elias and I’m so glad I found him! Dr. Elias did such an amazing job with my lip fillers giving me natural results I wanted. I was debating getting them done for over a year because it was hard to find a trusting doctor and a great price. From the moment I walked through the door the staff was very kind and did not feel pressure at all to make any decisions. They took their time explaining to me my different options and made sure all my questions were answered. But not only is he the best cosmetic surgeon, he’s an oral surgeon as well which is perfect because my wisdom teeth need to be removed! We all want the natural results and if your looking for a Doctor who can do that for you, look no further Dr. Elias is the one!
Dr. Husam Elias is magic! Not only is he exceptional at his craft, but his gracious character is unmatched. It is a big act of vulnerability for one to go under the knife, and I think it’s absolutely vital to find a doctor that cares about YOU and what YOU want.From his superb team to the soft details of which words he chooses to speak to you with, Dr. Husam Elias created the safest environment for me to feel listened to, supported, and best of all- EXCITED! His artistry speaks for itself, and he did a beautiful job on me.It is almost 4 months, and even with his booming business, I have never once felt dismissed when reaching out to him, or his lovely team, about anything big or small. I will forever remain grateful for my results.
My first procedure was Facetite with Dr. Elias. I was able to do the procedure awake on a Friday & was back to work on Monday! I was still swollen but not in pain at all. It’s a minimum invasive procedure to tighten the skin & gets rid of the fat. The staff was really friendly and was able to answer all my questions. I’ve been back many more times for Botox & fillers. Dr. Elias is such a perfectionist and that is exactly what I’m looking for in a Cosmetic Surgeon!
