‼️We have a zero-tolerance policy for disrespect. Thank you for visiting PRMA's Breast Cancer Reconstruction Community. Are you interested in breast reconstruction? Want to learn more about your options? Our goal is to help breast cancer patients learn more about breast reconstruction and the latest procedures available. Only 30% of women facing mastectomy for breast cancer are offered breast reconstruction. With your help, we can change this. We want women to realize that breast reconstruction is not only possible but also an option for them. Breast reconstruction is NOT a cosmetic procedure; it is every woman's right. PRMA Plastic Surgery specializes in advanced breast cancer reconstruction techniques including the DIEP, SIEA, GAP & TUG flap procedures, vascularized lymph node transfer, fat grafting, Alloderm One-step, and nipple-sparing mastectomy. We are In-Network for most US plans. Our most common reconstructive procedure, the DIEP flap, uses the patient's lower abdominal tissue to reconstruct a "natural", warm, soft breast. Unlike the TRAM flap, the DIEP flap preserves all the abdominal muscles. Patients undergoing DIEP flap reconstruction essentially receive a tummy tuck at the same time as the breast reconstruction. Since the abdominal muscles are spared, recovery is easier and patients retain abdominal muscle strength long-term.

Get to know Dr. Edwin Acevedo 👋✨

The newest surgeon to join the team here at PRMA, bringing a wealth of knowledge, a deep commitment to patient-centered care, and the ability to connect comfortably with patients in both English and Spanish.

We sat down with Dr. Acevedo to ask a few thoughtful (and fun) questions so you can get to know the person behind the white coat — from his background and training to what matters most to him when caring for patients.

We’re so lucky to have him on our team and are incredibly excited for our patients to get to know him.

🎥 Watch the full interview on our YouTube channel — link in bio to learn more about Dr. Acevedo, his approach to care, and what excites him most about joining the PRMA team.

Breast reconstruction timing is a deeply personal choice. 💗

Some patients choose immediate reconstruction at the time of mastectomy, while others prefer or need to wait. Both approaches are valid, and the right option depends on your treatment plan, goals, and readiness.

A consultation with a specialized reconstructive surgeon is the best place to understand your options, ask questions, and create a plan tailored to you. 🌸🩺

Are tissue expanders always necessary before DIEP flap breast reconstruction? 🤔

The short answer: not always. Breast reconstruction is highly individualized, and the use of tissue expanders depends on your unique treatment plan, timing, and goals. 💗

For many patients, DIEP flap reconstruction can be performed without expanders—sometimes even at the same time as mastectomy. Others may benefit from expanders due to radiation or delayed reconstruction needs.

The most important part? A personalized plan and an open conversation with your surgeon. 🩺💬

Today, we’re celebrating Jessica and her 1-year anniversary at PRMA! 💗🎉
