Seattle Plastic Surgery Practice

While cosmetic surgery tends to exhibit a natural ebb and flow according to how the economy is doing, according to Dr. Wandra Miles, breast cancer work and reconstructive procedures at her plastic surgery practice in Seattle will continue to be important even in tough economic times."Even though we're all going to have to make some sacrifices as we deal with the current economic conditions, when it comes to your health, you should never have to make sacrifices or compromises," says Dr. Miles. "Breast reconstruction is important because of the role it plays in the healing process for women battling breast cancer."

"A woman's breasts are a symbol of her womanhood and femininity, and even though a mastectomy represents an important milestone in the battle against breast cancer, successful treatment is often overshadowed by the pain of losing a breast," adds Dr. Miles, who performs breast enhancement for Seattle women in addition to reconstruction. "Plastic surgery to reconstruct a breast lost to mastectomy is one of the most rewarding procedures I perform because I get to help women who have been through so much regain their self-confidence and happiness."
For many women with breast cancer, undergoing a mastectomy is one of the most physically and emotionally challenging experiences they'll ever go through. Choosing a well-qualified surgeon should be a top priority for any breast reconstruction patient, and most women are looking for a surgeon who can help them cope with the emotional hurdles that come along with the mastectomy and reconstruction process as well.
