Where are the scars after breast reconstruction?
This depends on the type of reconstruction performed. With a tissue expander/implant based reconstruction, the scar created from the mastectomy provides access for the breast reconstruction. With a latissimus dorsi flap reconstruction, there is an additional scar on your back. With a TRAM flap reconstruction, there is an additional scar on your lower abdomen, analogous to that created during an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck.
