Breast Procedures
Surgeries performed by Dr. Scott Geiger and Dr. John Hulsen in Chesterfield, MO just outside of St. Louis.
Patient 21
This patient developed breast cancer. She underwent double mastectomies via small horizontal incisions that removed only the projecting part of her nipple for cancer reasons and patient desires. Dr. Geiger performed immediate prepectoral (above the muscle) reconstruction with highly cohesive (gummy bear) shaped silicone implants giving her a nice, natural appearance. […]

Patient 22
This patient developed left breast cancer. She initially underwent a lumpectomy to remove only a small portion of the breast. However, additional cancer was still found so a left mastectomy was performed for tumor control. Dr. Geiger performed expander based reconstruction initially. At a later, second stage he replaced the expander with a permanent implant […]

Patient 23
This patient developed breast cancer and underwent bilateral skin sparing mastectomies through horizontal ellipse incisions. Dr. Geiger performed immediate prepectoral (on top of the muscle) reconstruction with tissue expanders. The tissues were stretched as she completed chemotherapy. She later underwent exchange to the latest generation, highly cohesive (gummy bear) shaped, textured silicone implants. This created […]

Patient 24
This patient developed left breast cancer and underwent bilateral skin sparing mastectomies through horizontal ellipse incisions. Dr. Geiger performed immediate prepectoral (above the muscle) reconstruction with highly cohesive (gummy bear) smooth round silicone implants the same day. This gave her a very nice shape and fuller appearance in one operation combining cancer removal and reconstruction. […]

Patient 25
This patient developed left breast cancer. She underwent double mastectomies through breast reduction-type incisions (Wise Pattern) to remove excess skin and allow better reshaping of the breasts. Dr. Geiger placed tissue expanders on top of the muscle (prepectoral) and supported them with a blanket of Alloderm as well as her own excess breast skin (inferior […]

Patient 27
This patient developed a few right breast cancers. She underwent chemotherapy to shrink her tumors followed by double mastectomies. These were performed through breast reduction-type incisions (Wise Pattern) to remove excess skin and allow better reshaping of the breasts. Dr. Geiger placed tissue expanders on top of the muscle (prepectoral) and supported them with a […]

Patient 28
This patient developed left breast cancer. She completed chemotherapy prior to undergoing bilateral skin sparing mastectomies through horizontal ellipse incisions. She had immediate prepectoral (on top of the muscle) reconstruction with tissue expanders. The tissues were stretched to her final size before she then completed a course of radiation therapy to the left breast. 6 […]

Patient 29
This patient has a history of breast cancer and underwent double mastectomies years earlier. Her reconstruction at that time was performed with saline implants. Her left implant eventually developed a leak and fully deflated. Here she is after revision of her reconstruction and upgrading to newer, shaped gummy bear implants (Mentor moderate plus profile, medium […]

Patient 30
This nearly 70 year old patient had subglandular silicone breast augmentation over 35 years ago. She developed bilateral implant ruptures noted on imaging, and had some tightening/contracture with discomfort. Dr. Geiger performed total capsulectomies, removing the implants and the entire protective capsule that forms around the implants in one piece. This ensures full removal of […]
