Overview


Breast Reconstruction in West Palm Beach

Breast reconstruction rebuilds the breast following mastectomy or lumpectomy — restoring shape, symmetry, and confidence after cancer treatment. Dr. Kapp is a skilled reconstructive surgeon who partners with oncology teams to provide seamless care.

Reconstruction options include implant-based reconstruction and autologous (flap) reconstruction using the patient's own tissue. Dr. Kapp customizes the approach based on the patient's body, oncologic treatment plan, and personal goals. Nipple and areola reconstruction can also be performed for the most complete restoration.

Am I a Candidate?


Any patient who has undergone or is planning a mastectomy or lumpectomy is a candidate. Reconstruction can be performed immediately at the time of mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or as a separate procedure at a later date (delayed reconstruction).

The Procedure


The technique and timing depend on the patient's specific situation, prior treatments, and desired outcome. Dr. Kapp will work closely with your oncology team to determine the best path forward.

Recovery & Results


Recovery depends on the specific technique used. Dr. Kapp will provide a detailed recovery plan during your consultation.

Common Questions


Frequently Asked Questions

Is breast reconstruction covered by insurance?+
Yes — federal law (the Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act) requires that health plans covering mastectomy also cover reconstruction.
When should I begin planning for reconstruction?+
Ideally, before your mastectomy. Immediate reconstruction (at the time of mastectomy) typically produces the best aesthetic outcomes. Dr. Kapp can meet with you prior to your surgery.
