Beautiful After Breast Cancer Foundation

The Beautiful After Breast Cancer Foundation has one main goal: to inspire hope that a life of joy, beauty and wholeness is possible after breast cancer. This goal drives all our actions. Since reconstruction plays an important role in restoring the wholeness of the body, providing top level education in the field of reconstructive surgery as well as research are an important part of our foundation. We strongly believe that having access to all available information, the latest research and the best medical solution are crucial in this most difficult period of being diagnosed with breast cancer. Furthermore, the possibility to directly communicate and share with others that have gone through this tough ordeal can be an immense source of comfort and strength. As feeling good during and after breast cancer treatment is extremely important for patients and their loved ones, BABC offers support in a way one can feel strong, confident and "beautiful" again. BABC's objectives: - PROVIDE INFORMATION: To provide objective and reliable information through our website www.beautifulabc.com, social media, workshops and events, webinars and seminars ... - ORGANIZING TRAINING: for young surgeons in training, home and abroad (Stephen Kroll Fellowship). - CONSULTATION: with legislators, governments and insurers to improve and optimize reimbursement of treatments. - SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH: support breast cancer-related studies and research projects in the areas of prevention, treatment, surgical techniques and tissue engineering.
