PLASTIC SURGERY OF JACKSON HOLE JOHN C. PAYNE, D.O. BOARD CERTIFIED Committed to our community, full-time, year-round

Plastic Surgery Consult October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The focus of this designation is to increase awareness of the importance of early detection of breast cancer. With early detection, there are more treatment options, often including preservation of most of the breast after removal of the cancer. In many cases, however, removal of the breast is necessary to provide the best opportunity for cure. Breast reconstruction is an option available to every woman who has been treated for breast cancer. The Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 requires every insurance plan to cover breast reconstruction following mastectomy for cancer, as well as treatment of the opposite breast to provide symmetry with the reconstructed breast. Many reconstructive options are available here in Jackson, including skin-sparing mastectomy with implant-based and autologous (own tissue) reconstruction, performed either at the time of mastectomy, or following completion of cancer treatment. Early Detection is the key to a cure. 224694
