Breast removal
Breast removal is the surgical removal of the entire breast. The term for this procedure is total mastectomy. Breast removal is done when there is breast cancer or other abnormal growths on the breast tissue. This procedure is done immediately after diagnosis and is done under general anaesthesia. Breast augmentation is usually scheduled after the patient has fully recovered from the procedure to improve her physical appearance.
