Breast cancer reconstruction

Breast reconstruction is achieved through several plastic surgery techniques that attempt to restore a breast to near normal shape, appearance and size following mastectomy.

Reconstructive breast surgery is a multi-disciplinary treatment, coordinated with cancer surgeons and cancer specialists (known as oncologists).  Reconstructive surgery aims to rebuild the breast, either wholly or partially, to normalise the look of the breast and leave the patient with a symmetrical bust.  It also aims to improve the patient’s body image and self-esteem, helping the process of recovery on a physical, emotional and psychological level. Breast reconstruction can be a complex procedure, often involving microsurgery techniques.

Dr Stasch was part of a multidisciplinary team of Specialists performing the first ever microsurgical breast reconstruction following breast amputation (mastectomy) for breast cancer using microsurgical free flap surgery (DIEP flap surgery) at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Nairobi. We have since performed this operation on more than 12 patients, allowing them to lead a normal life after surviving breast cancer:

Dr Tilman Stasch is vastly experienced in this highly specialized technique, which was never before performed in Eastern Africa, through his work in the UK and Germany, where he was part of the teams doing breast reconstructions on a daily basis.

Dr Stasch also is one of the leading breast reconstruction specialists using autologous fatgrafting, where the womans breasts are gradualy reconstructed using the minimally invasive lipofilling technique.

Dr. Tilman and his team are the best in Kenya! I had a breast reduction surgery and the results are beyond phenomenal! They took their time preparing me and walking me through the whole process from the moment I reached out and through my recovery period. Winnie, Michelle Vangline and Lavender have been very supportive, professional, friendly and compassionate. Dr. Tilman is a true artist! His work is absolute perfection!!! He really did exceed my expectations. I had an easy flawless recovery and the scars have healed beautifully. The results are stunning. If I were to do it all over again, Dr. Tilman would be and remains to be my 1st choice. Honestly, I couldn't be happier. The surgery changed my life. The back and shoulder pain disappeared alongside the constant headaches. Size truly does matter.Thank you for making me look and feel good! You're all are exceptional.

I did my breast reduction surgery in February after suffering gigantomastia for as far back as I could remember. After my extensive research I went for the very best Dr. Tilman Stasch. My journey was way better than I expected, from the first consultation, to the OP and even the post op care. I was handled by a team that I found very professional and caring. I am 3kgs lighter on my chest and the happiest version of me.
