Benefits
Natural look and feel
Your reconstructed breasts are composed entirely of living tissue, providing a softness and warmth that implants cannot replicate.

Muscle-sparing technique
Your muscles will not be cut or moved. As a result, your pain level post-surgery will be relatively low and allows a faster return to normal activity. Most patients can control discomfort with over-the-counter products instead of narcotics.

Body contouring benefit
By using tissue from your “love handle” region along with the upper buttocks, you will gain a tailored waist and uplifted rear, which is an added aesthetic benefit unique to this donor site.

Potential breast sensation
In selected cases, sensory nerves can be connected at the time of reconstruction, allowing the possibility of restored breast sensation over time, something implants cannot offer.

Long-term durability
Once healed, the reconstructed breast requires no ongoing maintenance, device replacements or implant-related monitoring. It ages naturally with your body.

Symmetry procedures available
If only one breast is reconstructed, your surgeon can perform a balancing procedure on the opposite side so both breasts — and both flanks — are matched in size and shape.
