<\/span><\/h2>\r\nAn implant provides volume using a prosthesis and typically requires less surgical time, but is associated with a higher risk of radiation-related complications and capsular contracture. A flap provides the patient\u2019s own tissue, involves a donor site, and results in a longer postoperative recovery period; it may be preferable when irradiated skin does not adequately cover an implant. The choice is made during the consultation, not based on a list of generic advantages.<\/p>\r\n
