Why DIEP Flap is the Gold Standard in Breast Reconstruction
The DIEP flap represents the pinnacle of modern breast reconstruction. Unlike traditional implants or older flap techniques, DIEP flap reconstruction creates a natural, warm, soft breast using your own tissue – specifically, the skin and fat from your lower abdomen that many women are happy to part with!
What makes the DIEP flap special?- Creates a breast that looks, feels, and ages naturally
- Preserves all abdominal muscles for faster recovery
- Provides a flatter abdomen, similar to a tummy tuck
- Offers lifetime results without implant replacements
- Reduces long-term complications compared to other options
The DIEP Flap Advantage for Every Situation
After Mastectomy
Transform your recovery journey with the most advanced reconstruction available. The DIEP flap procedure provides natural-looking breasts that move and feel like your own tissue.

Implant-to-DIEP Conversion

Revision After Failed Reconstruction
Unhappy with your current reconstruction results? Our expertise can help restore your confidence with natural DIEP flap revision surgery.
Elevating Your Reconstruction Experience
Restoring Natural Sensation
Our groundbreaking nerve reconstruction technique, TruSense®, can help restore feeling to your reconstructed breast. This innovative approach reconnects carefully selected nerves during reconstruction, offering the potential to regain sensation that many women think is permanently lost after mastectomy.
High-Definition Body Contouring
Our innovative approach combines natural breast reconstruction with advanced body contouring for optimal aesthetic results. By precisely sculpting both your breast and donor site, we create beautiful, harmonious results that enhance your overall figure.
Post-Mastectomy Pain Solutions
Chronic pain after mastectomy shouldn't be your new normal. Our specialized nerve treatment protocols can provide relief from post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS), helping you return to a comfortable, active life.
Lymphedema Surgery
Breast cancer treatment can lead to arm swelling known as lymphedema. Our surgeons are experts in the latest microsurgical techniques that help reduce lymphedema and any associated arm discomfort.
