A British Mathematician “Alfred North Whitehead” once said: “Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern”. With this I would like to recognize Dr Kottis’ immense talent driven by his extensive experience and thank him for his courtesy and professionalism. You are a wonderful Plastic Surgeon, but above all else, a terrific human being. Thanks again for the excellent care.

What is
Breast Reconstruction Surgery?
Breast reconstruction surgery in Dubai restores one or both breasts to near-normal shape, appearance, and size following a mastectomy or lumpectomy. Using advanced flap techniques or implants, helps women regain their physical symmetry and emotional well-being after their battle with cancer. This complex reconstructive procedure depends on individual factors and clinical assessment. Results vary per individual. A consultation is required.
Immediate vs. Delayed Reconstruction
| Timing | Clinical note |
|---|---|
| Immediate | Begun at the time of mastectomy when oncology and anatomy allow |
| Delayed | Performed after healing, adjuvant therapy, or when readiness is deferred |
Implant-Based vs. Autologous (Flap) Techniques
- Implant-based — tissue expansion and/or implant reconstruction
- Autologous flaps — patient’s own tissue (e.g., abdominal or back donor sites when indicated)
- Combined approaches — selected when volume and soft-tissue coverage both require planning
Technique selection depends on oncology pathway, body habitus, and goals reviewed with Dr. Bouraoui Kotti.
Recovery Timeline
- Early weeks — wound care, drains if used, limited lifting
- Weeks 4–8 — progressive activity with clearance
- Months 3–12 — contour refinement and secondary refinements if planned
Cost & Insurance Considerations in Dubai

Risks & Safety Considerations
Risks depend on technique and may include infection, flap or implant complications, asymmetry, and delayed healing. Surgical procedures carry risks. Results vary per individual. A consultation is required.
