The new techniques involve the procedure that after the removal of cancerous tissue from the breast, doctors puts implant in its place, which bypasses the need of an expander pack, which is only required when the mastectomy removes the skin. By the help of this new technique, it is easy for doctors to get the right shape and size, since it involves the combination of Silicon Gel and Saline.
