Patient had mastectomy for breast cancer in the past and was looking for naturally looking breast reconstruction. Her breast was rebuilt with tissue from her abdomen (DIEP flap). Consequently 5 months down the line patient had reconstruction of the nipple and adjustments to improve shape of reconstructed breast. Consequently areola-nipple tattoo was performed. Patient is very pleased with outcomes of her reconstruction and with achieved symmetry between two breasts.
