🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness Month — A Note from Dr Jonel 🎀

As October comes to a close, our pink ribbons may fade — but the commitment to breast health and reconstruction continues every single day. 💗

For Dr Jonel Breytenbach, this month has been a reminder of why her work matters: helping women navigate their surgical journey with understanding, precision, and care.

Every story is different. Every timeline is unique.
Whether your reconstruction happens immediately or years after treatment — what matters most is you and your healing journey. 🌷

To all the strong women we’ve met, treated, and walked beside — thank you for trusting us with your stories, your scars, and your strength.
Your courage inspires everything we do. 💫

🎗 Reconstruction Surgery — On Your Terms

Whether it’s one month, three years, or even ten years later — reconstruction surgery doesn’t come with a deadline. Your healing, your readiness, your timeline. 💛

Once you’ve completed your cancer treatment and received what we call a C-code, medical aid will cover your reconstructive surgery — whenever you’re ready.

✨ Dr. Jonel believes every journey is different.
✨ There’s no “right time,” only your time.
✨ And we’ll be here to walk with you when that time comes.

Because your body deserves to feel whole again — on your terms, not a timeline.

📩 Reach out when you’re ready. We’re here for you.

Where Medicine Meets Meaning. 💗

October reminds us why we do what we do.
For Dr Jonel Breytenbach, breast reconstruction is more than a surgical specialty — it’s a calling.

Every patient’s journey is unique. Every scar tells a story.
And through her hands, medicine becomes something deeply human — a balance of precision, compassion, and purpose.

At the SJF Breast Centre of Excellence, Dr Jonel walks beside each woman from diagnosis to recovery — restoring confidence, wholeness, and hope. 🌷

💬 Myth Buster: Mastectomy & Reconstruction

One of the biggest misconceptions after a mastectomy is believing you’ll wake up with new breasts right away. 🩺
In reality, breast reconstruction is a journey, not a single operation.

After the mastectomy, Dr Jonel first focuses on removing the breast tissue safely. Reconstruction then happens in stages — rebuilding shape, restoring balance, and refining results over time.

Dr Jonel reminds patients:
✨ “Give yourself about a year to complete your reconstructive process.”
Healing, symmetry, and confidence all take time — and that’s completely normal. 💗

💗 My Plans for Today?
A little lift here, a little contour there — but always with purpose and precision. ✨

Whether it’s restoring confidence after surgery, refining features, or helping patients feel more themselves — every plan starts with understanding, safety, and balance. 🩺

Because in plastic and reconstructive surgery, it’s never just about change — it’s about care. 💫

🎀 Can You Do a Mammogram if You Have Breast Implants?

It’s one of the most common questions Dr. Jonel receives — and the answer is yes, absolutely! ✅

Even with implants, regular screening is essential for maintaining breast health. If you’re over 40, or have a strong family history of breast cancer, don’t delay your mammogram.
Modern technology allows for safe imaging without the discomfort or compression associated with older methods.

Dr. Jonel reminds patients: 🩺
➡️ Screen your breasts annually (or at least every second year).
➡️ Ask your radiology centre about implant-safe mammogram techniques.
➡️ If you’re unsure where to go, her rooms can guide you to trusted facilities.

Knowledge is confidence — and confidence is care. 💗

🧠 Mental Health & Surgery: More Connected Than You Think 💫

Plastic and reconstructive surgery isn’t just about changing appearances — it’s often about restoring a sense of wholeness, confidence, and control.

✨ For many patients, it’s the final step in healing after trauma, illness, or life-changing events.
✨ For others, it’s about making peace with their reflection and reclaiming their self-worth.

Whether it’s breast reconstruction after cancer, scar revision from past injuries, or body contouring after significant weight loss — the journey is never just physical.

🔍 Studies show a strong link between positive surgical outcomes and improved mental health — especially when expectations are realistic, and care is holistic.

🩺 That’s why Dr. Jonel takes a thoughtful, heart-led approach — because true transformation includes both body and mind.

If you’re considering surgery and want to talk through your goals, fears, or mental readiness — you’re not alone.

✨ Realistic VS Realistic expectations about Breast reduction surgery ✨

Breast reduction surgery is a journey, and setting the right expectations makes all the difference. 💡
✅ Realistic expectations = peace of mind, patience, and confidence in your results.

⚠️ Unrealistic expectations = frustration, disappointment, and unnecessary stress.
Remember, this isn’t about perfection—it’s about comfort, freedom, and a better quality of life.

💕 Take your time, trust the process, and embrace your transformation!

Jane Goodall once said, “What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” 🕊️♥️

Her work reminds us that true impact doesn’t always come from grand gestures — sometimes, it’s in the quiet consistency of showing up, caring deeply, and doing the work with intention.

As a female plastic surgeon, Dr. Jonel Breytenbach shares this quiet strength. She listens, holds space, and restores what’s been lost — not only through surgical skill, but through empathy, presence, and purpose.

This isn’t about changing appearances — it’s about honouring stories. Just like Jane honours every creature she meets, Dr. Jonel honours every woman who walks through her doors.

Different paths. Same heart.

Rest easy Dr Jane Goodall. 🙏🏼♥️
