Deconstructing Breast Reconstruction Myths

from Plastic Surgery Practice Hosted by Plastic Surgery Practice

Join Plastic Surgery Practice Co-Chief Editor Keri Stephens as she talks to Anna Steve, MD, FRCSC, (or “Dr. Anna,” as her patients call her) about all things breast reconstruction. A breast specialist at the New York City-based Neinstein Plastic Surgery, Dr. Anna endorses an “elegant” approach to breast surgery—although she’s quick to point out that the reconstruction process can present unique challenges. In this podcast, Dr. Anna reveals why breast reconstruction is rarely a one-and-done procedure and why referring to post-mastectomy reconstruction as a “free boob job” is deeply erroneous. She also divulges what excites her most in breast reconstruction right now. (Hint: It involves nipple reconstruction.) Finally, Dr. Anna shares one important aspect of medicine that surgeons are “not historically great” at—and why that should change.
