From DIEP Flap and TUG Flap procedures to lesser-known SHAEP and Stacked Flaps, we offer a range of natural tissue reconstruction and breast sensation restoration options. Whether you're interested in direct-to-implant or expander implant reconstruction, we are experienced in both prepectoral and subpectoral approaches. We perform a wide range of procedures, like conversion to prepectoral implants, flap revision, fat grafting, and surgery on the opposite breast, to improve your breast reconstruction. We offer surgical and non-surgical options, like 3-D tattoo, that allow our surgeons to create a natural appearing nipple as the final touch for your breast reconstruction. We help our patients understand the types of mastectomies available and how genetic information, like BRCA gene mutations, can factor into your decisions.

Release Ceremony: An Afternoon of Letting Go & Renewal

Sometimes healing means making space—letting go of what no longer serves us and opening ourselves to what comes next.

Join NYBRA’s Patient Empowerment Program for a meaningful afternoon at the beach as we gather together to release emotional burdens, limiting beliefs, and unhealthy patterns—and make room for hope, peace, well-being, and new beginnings.

Wednesday, September 16 | 1:00–3:00 PM
Robert Moses Beach, Field 2

Please bring:
• A beach chair
• A small snack to share (no alcohol, please)
• A written statement of what you’re ready to release
• White clothing, if possible, to symbolize peace and new beginnings

This special gathering is for NYBRA patients only. Parts of the ceremony will be filmed to capture this meaningful moment of our community coming together.

Registration is required. Please RSVP to reserve your spot.
