Dr. Paul Wotowic specializes in plastic surgery and strives to deliver world-class breast reconstruction in San Ramon, CA. Dr. Paul Wotowic can provide you with a beautiful and natural-looking appearance.

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

Although breast reconstruction can rebuild your breast, the results are highly variable:

A reconstructed breast will not have the same sensation and feel as the breast it replaces.
Visible incision lines will always be present on the breast, whether from reconstruction or mastectomy.
Certain surgical techniques will leave incision lines at the donor site, commonly located in less exposed areas of the body such as the back, abdomen or buttocks.

A note about symmetry: If only one breast is affected, it alone may be reconstructed. In addition, a breast lift, breast reduction or breast augmentation may be recommended for the opposite breast to improve symmetry of the size and position of both breasts.

I usually don’t enjoy visits to my physician, but Paul Wotowic is a unique exception. He is not only a superb plastic surgeon and technician, but a physician who genuinely understands a patient and their concerns. He listened thoroughly to my problem (management for my diagnosis for breast reconstruction), pointed out other issues I didn’t think of, and then calmly walked me through a plan of management for my diagnosis explaining all of the steps in the process. My reconstruction turned out perfectly and better than I had expected with the result being soft, perky, and very natural. He is a very principled thinker and executed a deliberate surgical plan that I could understand even though I do not have a medical background. This man has a gift of intellectual discernment, heartfelt understanding, and surgical judgment unique among today’s medical practitioners. I have since had other cosmetic operations performed by him. All of them with equal satisfaction and excellent results.
