After experiencing the emotional and physical difficulties of his patients coping with a diagnosis of breast cancer early in his career, Dr. Becker was determined to help patients undergoing mastectomies maintain their femininity and self-esteem following the loss of their natural breasts, and invented the Becker Adjustable Breast Implant. This implant allows the patient to undergo reconstructive surgery in only ONE procedure. The implant also allows a woman to regain her confidence and figure immediately and achieve the results desired as the implant is shaped and sized when fluid is added through a port which is removed once healing has taken place.
He is now offering patients an option of using their own fat tissue combined with absorbable mesh to reconstruct the breast
