Breast reconstruction is an important surgical option for individuals who have undergone partial or total breast removal due to cancer or other diseases. At The Centre, P.C., our board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in reconstructing breasts to restore their natural shape and form, helping patients regain confidence and a sense of normalcy.
In most cases, breast reconstruction can be performed immediately following mastectomy or delayed until after other treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation. This procedure does not affect the recurrence of breast cancer or interfere with ongoing treatments.
Single stage approach is most suitable for candidates of nipple sparing, skin sparing mastectomies. A permanent implant, silcone or saline, is inserted immediately following the mastectomy.
Option 2 would be a two-stage procedure where at the time of the mastectomy a tissue expander is inserted into the pocket under the skin. This device is gradually filled with saline over the course of several weeks to stretch the skin. Once the desired volume is achieved, in a secondary operation, the expander is removed and replaced with a permanent implant.
Oncoplastic or breast conservation reconstruction is the removal of breast cancer while still leaving an adequate portion of breast tissue behind to make a cosmetically appealing breast.
Flap reconstruction uses tissue from other parts of the body to recreate the breast. Options include:

I was very nervous about having breast surgery but after it was done I was so happy with the results. She truly nailed it. I would highly recommend Dr. Macias to anyone considering any cosmetic surgery.

It has been officially 5 week since my tummy tuck and breast lift. After losing 150lbs I knew I needed this done but never thought it would be possible. After meeting with Dr. Downs and his team my dreams started to seem like reality. Five weeks ago we completed 1 of my 2 suggested surgery’s. My recovery so far has been extremely easy with little to no pain. Dr. Downs has been just the best. He took his time and explained every part of my surgery and what I could expect. It was a pleasant surprise to wake up from surgery and find out he didn’t have to make the vertical incision down my stomach due to all the my weight loss, and lose skin. I’m so happy Dr. Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery. Can’t wait for him to complete my project.
I was recently hospitalized last week for a finger infection. I ended up having surgery and Dr. Downs was my doctor. Very good bedside manner and great doctor. He takes his time to explain things to you. I really liked that. And went to his office for my follow up. All the staff were so sweet and professional.
Dr. Downs is fantastic. He is very knowledgeable and communicates very effectively. The staff made this experience comfortable for me. I am very happy and pleased with the results.
Dr. Downs and The Centre, P.C. staff are wonderful to work with for questions/concerns prior to and after surgery during recovery period. Dr. Downs consults with patient prior to surgery to confirm understanding of what results are important to them.
Additionally, Dr. Downs personally follows up after surgery to ensure that things are going well after discharge which I was extremely impressed by. The office/surgical center provides a more discrete and personalized patient environment with a separate door entrance for the follow-up appointment the day after surgery as well.
I love the centre. Pc. The staff they treat you like they know you forever they explain they make sure what you’re going to do and ext. Doctor Downs is the best. He’s funny but when is about to do his job is he’s very strict and very discipline no doubt. Thank you guys for make me feel happy and look beautiful 😍 God bless all of you 🙏😍
