The Breast Center, located in Lone Tree, Colorado, understands how much you carry, and we’re here to help you plan this important step in a way that makes sense for your life.
Dr. Christopher G. Williams and Dr. Jeremy Z. Williams are board-certified plastic surgeons with advanced training in microsurgical reconstruction. Both trained at The Johns Hopkins Hospital and have spent years helping women like you feel supported through every stage of breast reconstruction.
Planning Breast Reconstruction on Your Terms
Timing breast reconstruction depends on many factors. Some women choose immediate reconstruction during mastectomy, while others wait weeks, months, or even years before they feel ready. We’ll work with you to understand your lifestyle and responsibilities so you can plan things out.
We’ll help you think through questions like:
- When could you realistically take time off work without added stress?
- Do you have help at home during the first couple weeks of recovery?
- Are there school breaks, holidays, or slower seasons that could work better?
- Would it help to recover before or after a major event or family commitment?
We’ll also talk through what recovery can look like based on the type of procedure you choose, whether it’s implant-based or a flap reconstruction. Some methods require more downtime than others, so understanding that up front makes it easier to plan ahead.
No matter your situation, we’ll help you build a timeline that feels manageable.
Support Beyond the Operating Room
Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens while you’re still answering emails, managing household routines, and caring for the people around you.
Our team helps you think through things like how to set up your home for comfort, what mobility will look like in the first few days, and how long you may want help with driving, childcare, or meals. We’ll also talk through expected timelines for healing based on your specific procedure, whether it’s implant-based reconstruction or a flap technique.
