the DIEP flap reconstruction results in superior cosmesis and appearance, without the need for artificial material such as implants or tissue expanders. Dr. Mace and Dr. Diaz are currently the only surgical team in Mississippi offering this revolutionary procedure to their patients. They recognize the importance of treating the breast cancer while restoring their patients’ sense of self, body image, and wholeness.
If you have been newly diagnosed with breast cancer, have had previous breast cancer surgery without reconstruction, had a failed or unsatisfactory reconstruction with implants, or have a BRCA mutation with a high risk for future breast cancer, you may be a candidate for DIEP flap reconstruction. For more information, please contact one of our offices for a consultation.
