how to create expander dynamically?

Do they allow a 2nd tissue expander to continue expanding breast area for reconstructive surgery?

  • They were not able to expand my tissue to be as large as my other breast and I would prefer not to have to have a drastic reduction. Can a 2nd expander be used to create a larger breast cavity before completing reconstructive surgery with implant? This would necessitate an additional surgery, however, and I wanted to know if there was any history of this having been accepted. If anyone else experienced this and found a solution besides a drastic breast reduction on the other side, I'd be greatly appreciative to find out any other options? Because I have Fibromyalgia, which is a conntective tissue disease, I can't do any of the "flaps". I can only use saline implants after having been expanded. Thanks...

    Hi, Sorry that you are having so many problems after surgery; while I am a man, had a couple of things - i understand this is a HUGE issue after surgery (have a couple of friends who have gone through it) as becky said - how about an inplant over the muscle? if that isn't going to work, there are a lot of prostetics out there that could be fitted so both breast match. when i was "young", a good friend of mine worked in this business - local company that specilized in "after surgery bras" etc. fitted correctly, you could not tell the difference. one link http://www.parkmastectomy.com/ this doesn "help", if you are "sans clothes" but any person who loves you will not care if they are not "a set" [ and btw i have never seen a set that were 100% identical anyway]. If they do care, probably not someone you want to be with anyway. hope it was of some help, you might calll the local ACS to get more information: www.cancer.org Jewells 29 months and still here

What was the reason the first expander didn't work? Did you have the surgery after a mastectomy? If not, you may be able to have an implant on top of the muscle the same size as your other breast. I'm assuming if the first under muscle expander didn't work, the second won't either, but I'm not a surgeon. Good luck either way!
