Skin-Reducing/ Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy (Modified McKissock) with Immediate Reconstruction This is a more complex operation suitable for large-breasted women who wish to achieve smaller breast size following mastectomy as part of cancer treatment or risk-reducing mastectomy. The type of reconstruction depends on the individual patient and any additional treatment, such as Radiotherapy, which could influence the cosmetic outcome in the medium to long term.

Autologous Latissimus Dorsi Flap Reconstruction with Implant This is a well-established reconstruction technique which involves lifting a large muscle from the back - the latissimus dorsi or LD (usually with some skin) and bringing it to the front. The additional volume is achieved by using an implant behind the LD flap. This is a useful option for delayed reconstruction, especially in women who have previously undergone mastectomy with radiotherapy.
