What Is Breast Reconstruction Surgery?
Breast reconstruction surgery is a procedure designed to rebuild the shape and appearance of the breast following a mastectomy or lumpectomy. Whether you've lost your breasts due to cancer treatment or another medical condition, the surgical reconstruction of the breast can help restore a sense of wholeness and confidence to your life. At John L. Clayton, MD at Southridge Clinic Plastic Surgery, Dr. John L. Clayton tailors each surgical plan to the unique needs of his patients, ensuring that reconstructive breast surgery aligns with their goals. If you're considering this procedure, we invite you to schedule a consultation to explore your options for breast reconstruction surgery in Riverton, UT.
How Is Breast Reconstruction Surgery Performed?
There are several techniques available for breast reconstruction, and the right choice depends on factors like your cancer diagnosis, when the reconstruction is performed, and whether you opt for implants or natural tissue. Dr. Clayton may use implant-based reconstruction, which involves silicone or saline implants, or autologous tissue reconstruction where skin, fat, and sometimes muscle are taken from areas like your abdomen or back to rebuild the breast. If necessary, nipple-sparing techniques or nipple reconstruction may be part of the treatment plan. During your consultation, Dr. Clayton will discuss the exact approach he'll use for your surgery and what you can expect in terms of scarring and aftercare.

OBSESSED!! Dr. Clayton is amazing and so kind. He fixed my chest and helped relieve back and neck pain. My chest looks amazing. His staff is so kind and he has the best MA. Thank you for making me feel beautiful again.
Nice and very professional….great staff!!
So far one day after surgery, I am doing well. The prep, procedure and after care at the hospital was smooth and I felt well informed and listened to.
I had an outpatient procedure done at Riverton Hospital. The staff is great. Shout out to same day surgery nurse Stephanie and Morgan for their excellent care.
Dr Clayton and staff made me feel very comfortable.
