Tissue expanders aren’t forever—but you may not need to rush implant swap surgery either. Unless you’re experiencing complications, you often have flexibility in timing.

Tissue expanders are a medical device used in the breast reconstruction process to stretch the breast skin. They’re filled with saline several times in order to gradually stretch the skin. #breastcancer #triplenegativebreastcancer #tnbc #breastcancerunder40 #breastreconstruction | Devean R. Owens-Toler

Tissue expanders play a key role in breast reconstruction, but they’re not designed for long-term use. Meredith Collins, MD, explains what they’re made of, how long they’re typically in place, and why they eventually need to be replaced with a permanent implant. | Ochsner Health

I had a preventive mastectomy with tissue expanders because of a PALB2 gene mutation. PALB2 is a genetic mutation that increases the risk of breast cancer, even if you feel healthy. Recovery with expanders is slow and uncomfortable, it takes time, patience, and a lot of healing, both physically and mentally. #mastectomy #mastectomyrecovery #surgery #mamoplastia #breastcancerawarenessmonth

Implant day!! 🌟🌟🌟 if you’ve had tissue expanders you know how uncomfortable and weird they are, so today was verrry exciting 🥳 For anyone who can relate in any capacity, you’re a superhuman and I hope you know it 🤍🤍 And as always, do your self exams! 🫶🏼 #dmx #reconstruction #implants #breastcancerawareness #mastectomy

Yes, these huge syringes are real 😅 They’re used to fill tissue expanders after mastectomy to prepare for breast reconstruction. Not the most fun part of recovery, but definitely part of the journey! #preventativemastectomy #breastcancer #mastectomyrecovery #mastectomy #doublemastectomy

Tissue expanders are typically the first step in implant-based breast reconstruction. The first time I saw this, I was in awe 🤩 Filling an expander is done in the office every 1-2 weeks until a preferred size is reached (or until your skin cannot handle more pressure). #plasticsurgery #breastreconstruction #breastcancer #tissueexpanders #surgery
