LEXINGTON, Ky. (Jan. 28, 2021) UK HealthCare, home to the University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center, has officially been recognized as a System of Excellence for Hidden Scar breast cancer surgery, the highest level of Hidden Scar designation. UK HealthCare is the first and only hospital system in Kentucky to be certified as a Hidden Scar System of Excellence. This surgical option provides the women of Kentucky with a procedure that effectively treats breast cancer while optimizing cosmetic results.
The American Cancer Society estimates that 3,800 Kentucky women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. Of those women, most will need surgery as part of their treatment. Though surgical techniques over the decades have improved, traditional breast cancer surgeries still leave visible scars behind.
