-- Dr. Taylor Theunissen, a leading plastic surgeon in Baton Rouge, performs advanced autologous breast reconstruction procedures, providing cancer survivors with sophisticated tissue-based reconstruction options. The methods utilize patients' natural tissue to recreate breast tissue following mastectomy, offering advantages in durability and natural integration.
Autologous breast reconstruction can be a good alternative to implants for breast cancer survivors. This method uses tissue from the abdomen, thighs, or back instead of implants. As a result, the reconstructed breast looks and feels more natural. Patients choosing autologous reconstruction experience fewer risks, such as capsular contracture or allergic reactions, which are more common with implants. In some cases, patients regain sensation in the reconstructed breast, enhancing their overall recovery. The procedure is also long-lasting, aging naturally with the body and reducing the need for future surgeries.
"Breast reconstruction is a powerful tool for helping survivors reclaim their sense of self after cancer treatment," said Dr. Theunissen. "Through advanced autologous techniques, we can offer results that look and feel natural while minimizing complications."
Dr. Taylor Theunissen is board-certified and an active member of The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), and The American Society of Maxillofacial Surgery (ASMS).
