At the Institute for Advanced Breast Reconstruction, Dr. Dhivya Srinivasa and Dr. Heather King bring their combined expertise to Austin, offering advanced microsurgical and oncoplastic approaches to breast reconstruction that restore natural form and confidence. Together, they help patients heal after breast cancer with compassionate, precise, and world-class surgical skill.
What types of breast reconstruction are available in Austin?
We offer lumpectomy, implant-based, hybrid, and autologous (flap-based) reconstruction options. Each plan is designed around your anatomy, goals, and medical history.
Can I have breast reconstruction immediately after my mastectomy?
Yes, many patients are eligible for immediate reconstruction. During your consultation, Dr. King and Dr. Srinivasa will coordinate to determine if this approach fits your treatment plan.
How do autologous and implant-based reconstruction compare?
Both options have benefits. Autologous procedures use your own tissue for a natural feel and long-term results, while implants may involve shorter recovery times. Your surgeons will help you select the best option for your needs.
How long is recovery after breast reconstruction?
Recovery times vary depending on the technique used. Dr. Srinivasa and Dr. King will provide a personalized recovery plan and ongoing support throughout your healing process.
Do I need to live in Austin to have surgery there?
No. We welcome traveling patients and can assist with accommodation arrangements for those visiting Austin for surgery.
