Breast Reconstruction
Dr Langbart is a distinguished micro surgeon specialising in breast cancer reconstruction. He brings extensive expertise and training to his practice having performed many hundreds of microsurgical “free flaps”. With a background that includes an overseas fellowship as the senior microsurgical fellowship at the prestigious Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital in London, he is adept in advanced microsurgical techniques.
Dr Langbart offers a comprehensive range of reconstructive options tailored to each patient's needs, with a particular specialisation in autologous reconstruction. This included DIEP flaps and other innovative techniques using tissue from the patient's own body. In the right patient, living tissue reconstructions look, feel and age more naturally. Dr Langbart is committed to personalised care and his surgical precision ensures that patients receive the highest standard of aesthetic and functional outcomes following breast cancer treatment.
Does Dr Langbart perform muscle sparing surgery (DIEP flaps)?
Dr Langbart is highly skilled in the use of DIEP (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) flaps, an advanced technique in breast reconstruction that preserves abdominal muscle function. Unlike the older TRAM (Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous flap), this procedure distinguishes itself by preserving the rectus abdominis muscle. This approach ensures not only aesthetic results but also maintains core strength and function for patients undergoing breast reconstruction.
Does Dr Langbart perform non-abdominal based autologous breast reconstruction
Dr Langbart also specializes in utilizing tissue from areas such as thighs and buttocks, offering personalized reconstructive options that prioritize both aesthetic excellence and functional preservation. His comprehensive approach ensures optimal outcomes, restoring confidence and enhancing quality of life for patients following breast cancer surgery.
Does Dr Langbart perform implant based reconstruction?
Dr Langbart also performs implant-based breast reconstruction, offering patients both single-stage and multi-stage options. With his expertise, he tailors each approach to meet the individual needs and preferences of his patients, ensuring comprehensive care and achieving natural-looking results. Dr Langbart's dedication to excellence in reconstructive surgery provides patients with choices that restore confidence and enhance quality of life after breast cancer treatment.
