BRA Day 2012


Blair Plastic Surgery is a proud sponsor of BRA Day. BRA Day, or breast reconstruction awareness day is an international initiative to make reconstructive options know to all people affected by breast cancer. Not only are reconstruction options available, reconstruction is also covered by insurance!

Dr Louton has 20 plus years of experience using all types of reconstructive procedures, and most recently has become a sub investigator for BRAVA Fat trasfer procedure, which uses the patient's own fat to reshape the breast mound.

We are proud to sponsor such a great project, and hope that we can get the word out that we are serious about helping our patients close the loop on breast cancer!

Breast Cancer Awareness

October brings apple cider, crisp weather and pink ribbons.

Breast Cancer Awareness month begins today, and the Skin Care Krew is doing their part! This year, Blair Plastic Surgery is promoting BRA Day, the first annual event in the United States!

BRA Day is Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day, a day set aside to raise awareness at of all reconstruction options after surgical treatment for breast cancer. 7 out of 10 women diagnosed with breast cancer are never told their full surgical reconstruction options, and may be left struggling to find clothes to fit, a sense of loss and inability to emotionally heal.

Here in the office, The Admiral, Dr Robert Louton, will be giving a series of seminars all about breast surgery. Together with an online initiative and offices of Board Certified Plastic Surgeons nationwide, we can all get the word out about closing the loop on breast cancer.
