“We wear bras for lift, shape and confidence, but the wrong fit could do more harm than good. CNA Women asks ..”
“A new approach for those diagnosed with the disease involves minimally invasive breast removal and reconstruction.”
“The operation scar is small and faint. No one can see it unless I raise my arm. My breast looks and feels almost exactly as it was before, except for the darkened skin because of radiation. I feel confident once again,” the mother of two girls said.
“This new surgical method breaks through the limitations of minimally invasive surgery and whole breast reconstruction without noticeable scars.”
“The scar from the surgery left below her bra line is now invisible. “Sometimes I even forget that I was a breast cancer patient. I don’t feel any difference in my reconstructed breasts.”
“Although breast cancer has been the most common cancer among women aged 50 to 69 for the past 50 years, only 37.9% of women received mammograms in 2019 and 2020.”
On Health Suites, Claressa Monteiro spoke to A/Prof Sabrina Ngaserin to find out more about the illness as well as the current options available for women.
“Studies show that mammograms help reduce breast cancer mortality by up to 50 percent, and the benefits far outweigh the perceived risks and discomfort.”
“Do only older women need to worry about breast cancer? Is breast size a risk factor? Can wearing wired bras too often cause cancer? And does finding a lump always mean cancer?“
“The greatest value of the minimally invasive breast approach is the principle of ‘aesthetically scarless’ breast surgery, where incisions and scars are minimised, hidden yet the procedure remains within the range of oncologic safety. We would like to make this the new standard of care for our breast cancer patients.”
“Good surgical management is the cornerstone of breast cancer treatment and the restoration of self for patients. With surgical advancements in oncoplastic breast surgery, minimally invasive breast surgery and breast reconstruction, patients can now look forward to better cosmetic outcomes and quality of life.”
“My biggest joy at work comes from establishing a relationship with my patients; I appreciate their trust in me to see them through their treatment and survivorship, and it’s inevitable that I’ve grown invested in a lot of their lives.”
“Whenever a cancer survivor says that she can even forget that her “aesthetically scarless” endoscopically resected and reconstructed breast isn’t real, I feel truly proud. We are helping these ladies move past the experience of being a breast cancer patient, so they can move on with their lives.”
“As a surgeon, I see patients from all walks of life. Sometimes, because of their health conditions, they urgently require life-saving treatments which are ‘non-standard’ and therefore not eligible for subsidies. The cost of such care can be prohibitive for patients who face financial challenges.”
““Most women are diagnosed after age 50 but we must not overlook that one in six cases occur in younger women, under 45”
