For those women who have undergone single or double mastectomies, this could be an option for you. Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator flap reconstruction (DIEP) involves creating natural breasts with skin and fat from the lower abdomen. Unlike a similar procedure, Transverse Rectus Abdominis Muscle flap reconstruction (TRAM), DIEP flap surgery leaves the stomach muscle in place and produces less scarring. Talk to a plastic surgeon about this procedure or other options.
