esearch shows that far too many women diagnosed with breast cancer still don’t know about their reconstruction options following a mastectomy. Launched by ASPS and The PSF in 2012, the Breast Reconstruction Awareness USA Campaign is instrumental in providing these women with both education and information about their reconstructive options as they undergo breast cancer treatment. Breast reconstruction can help women rebuild their self-esteem and improve their quality of life following breast cancer surgery. Plastic surgeons play an important role in a breast cancer patient’s recovery process – and the annual Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day movement gives those surgeons an opportunity to empower cancer patients, celebrate survivors and help women make an informed decision at the time of diagnosis. The ninth annual Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day will take place on Oct. 21, 2020. The Breast Reconstruction Awareness Campaign would not be possible without the generous support of our dedicated corporate sponsors. Thanks to their commitment, the campaign continues to provide education and resources about reconstructive surgery and raise awareness to close the loop on breast cancer – both on Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day and throughout the year. 2020 SPONSORS Three companies have generously lent their support to the 2020 Breast Reconstruction Awareness Campaign. This year’s Diamond Sponsor is Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, one of the country’s leading supplier of medical products for the global aesthetic medicine market. Mentor Worldwide LLC, a Silver Sponsor this year, has been a longtime supporter of the Breast Reconstruction Awareness Campaign. Both companies have launched multiple reconstruction solutions and are committed to continued innovation that will provide surgeons with the tools to improve patient outcomes in breast reconstruction. Integra Foundations joins the Breast Reconstruction Awareness Campaign this year as a Bronze Sponsor. Every corporate partner contributes annually to the campaign’s success and continues to make a difference in empowering women facing a breast cancer diagnosis, as well as providing them with reconstructive education. Donations from sponsors are applied directly to programs that support related research and awareness efforts, and provide charitable care. ASPS and The PSF sincerely thank the 2020 Breast Reconstruction Awareness campaign’s generous sponsors for their continued support and dedication to women’s health, patient education and innovation.
