The NOLA group that you most often hear about when it comes to Diep or free flap is The breast Restoration Center with Dr. Sullivan, Dr. Dellacrose and Dr. Trahan. I went there for my reconstruction (hip flap) and had a fabulous surgical experience. Here in MD where I live I was told 2 seperate surgeries just for Stage 1, 6 weeks apart and that they might be able to get me to a small B. Dr Sullivan just asked what size I wanted to be and that is what he was able to achieve
. I love my new girls, my scars are there but flat and very symetrical. I know it sounds silly but I worried about things like that.
If you have any questions I would fill out a consult form (it cost nothing) and NOLA would be happy to talk to you. They have Katie who takes care of all of the traveling and it really is a LOT easier than it sounds.
Oh besides cosmetically results, I was a double that was done in under 5 hours.
