What is a DIEP flap surgery and why do women choose it for breast reconstruction after mastectomy?

Mr Dariush Nikkhah explains what breast reconstruction with DIEP (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) flap surgery is, and how they perform a surgery where tissue from the abdomen is taken and shaped into a breast. It is a like-for-like reconstruction that is safe and is the gold standard for breast reconstruction. Women choose DIEP flap surgery because it gives a natural feel, and unlike breast implants, it has less problems with revision. Mr Nikkhah founded the London Microsurgery Group in 2021. He is a leading UK specialist in reconstructive microsurgery after cancer and trauma. His private practice is located in North London at St John and Elizabeth Hospital and The Royal Free Private Patients unit.

Great teamwork to perform the UK’s first minimal access TEP DIEP flap. This procedure is suitable in some patients for breast reconstruction and reduces abdominal morbidity and potentially inpatient stay . I led a team of plastic surgeons Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust alongside the pioneering robotic surgeon Alistair AP Slesser. The Fascial incision was 2.5 cm and the patient was up and walking on day 1 with a successful free tissue transplant. Collaboration is the key in procedures such as this . We will continue to refine the techniques to help our patients .

Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is a great operation for removal of excess skin and resculpting of the lower abdomen. Tightening of the six 6️⃣ pack muscles and re contouring the abdomen with liposuction can help bring out definition . These procedures involve making a new bellybutton and creating a low scar. For patient enquiries email 📧 mrnikkhah@theclinic.co.uk

Mr Nikkhah strongly believes in two consultations prior to major surgery particularly in complex microsurgical and cosmetic procedures. Consultations with Mr Nikkhah will involve detailed discussion of the case, recovery time, potential complications and expected outcomes. Email 📧 for consultations: mrnikkhah@theclinic.co.uk
