Defining Breast Reconstruction Surgery
Breast reconstruction surgery is a personalised procedure designed to rebuild the breast shape and appearance after a mastectomy or trauma. At Dr Deon Weyers’ plastic surgery practice in South Africa, this surgery goes beyond physical restoration—it helps women reclaim their confidence and sense of identity.
With breast reconstruction procedures starting at R80,000, Dr Deon offers world-class care rooted in experience, aesthetic precision, and deep understanding of a woman’s healing journey.
Why Women Choose Breast Reconstruction Surgery
Emotional and Physical Healing in One Procedure
For many women, the journey after a mastectomy involves not only physical recovery but emotional restoration. Breast reconstruction helps address both. Rebuilding the breast shape can restore confidence, body image, and femininity—critical elements of emotional well-being post-cancer.
Dr Deon offers supportive and customised care that acknowledges the emotional layers involved in breast reconstruction.
Techniques Offered by Dr Deon
Each woman’s body and recovery path is different. That’s why Dr Deon offers multiple breast reconstruction options to suit a range of needs:
Implant-Based Reconstruction
This method involves placing silicone implants to recreate the breast shape. It is often quicker and ideal for women seeking shorter surgical time and recovery.
Flap Reconstruction (Autologous Tissue)
Using tissue from another part of the patient’s body (such as the abdomen or back), this technique provides natural results and is preferred for long-term symmetry and feel.
Immediate vs Delayed Reconstruction
Dr Deon offers both immediate (during mastectomy) and delayed (after healing) reconstruction. The timing depends on your cancer treatment plan and personal preferences.
