The tissue for shaping the new breast is selected from the abdominal region below the navel. During the microsurgical removal of the abdominal tissue, the underlying straight left abdominal muscle is partially incorporated into the flap.<\/p>\n

A residual function of the partially removed straight left abdominal muscle remains at the flap lift site on the lower abdomen.<\/p>\n

Once the right breast has healed, the nipple can be restored, the left breast adjusted (if necessary) and the right areola tattooed separately. Both nipple and areola restoration by tattooing can be performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia.<\/p>\n

For a possible adjustment of the left breast, a general anesthesia is again required.<\/p>\n
