RECONSTRUCTIVE PROCEDURES
-
Breast Reconstruction
A diagnosis of breast cancer and the treatments required to manage and cure it can be daunting, overwhelming, and–in some cases–disfiguring. Reconstruction after breast cancer using cutting-edge techniques can go a long way towards helping restore a sense of wholeness and femininity and is often performed at the same time as the lumpectomy or mastectomy in collaboration with your breast cancer surgeon.
-
DIEP Flap
Patients seeking natural breast reconstruction after mastectomy may choose a DIEP flap, which uses skin and fat from the lower abdomen to create a new breast. This technique preserves abdominal muscles while restoring a soft, natural shape.
-
Skin Cancer Removal/Mohs Reconstruction
Skin cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed and treated in the United States, and the face is among the most common locations that it is found. Facial reconstructive expertise is critical to optimizing aesthetic and functional results after removal, which can usually be performed quickly in the office and often in collaboration with a Mohs dermatologist.
-
Trauma Reconstruction
Trauma, burns and other injuries often result in aesthetic and functional problems of the face, body and extremities. Either at the time of the injury or thereafter, our surgeons are skilled in many of the techniques required to restore form and function after trauma.
-
Worker's Compensation (Occupational Injuries)
Patients injured on the job may experience trauma to the hands, face, or body—from fractures and lacerations to burns, nerve injuries, or soft tissue damage. We offer comprehensive evaluation and surgical care for work-related injuries, supporting recovery, function, and return to work.
“Dr. Morbia reconstructed my face after MOHS and did a wonderful job. His justified confidence is comforting. This is my 3rd reconstruction with 3 plastic surgeons, and Dr. Morbia will be my choice for any future work I may need done. I recommend you check out his before and after pictures - he works wonders for skin cancer patients.”
