UNDERSTANDING POLAND SYNDROME:
YOU’RE NOT ALONE—WE SEE YOU
People with rare conditions often have to bear the stigma attached to what makes them different—and Poland syndrome cases are no exception.
Poland syndrome, a rare congenital condition typically characterized by missing or underdeveloped chest muscles, is a quiet struggle that can affect a person’s body image, social behavior, and routine tasks.
If you have a diagnosed Poland syndrome, you likely know this struggle all too well.
You might’ve been on the receiving end of judgmental stares, offhanded remarks, and intrusive questions from people who have little to no understanding of your condition.
Perhaps most days, you manage just fine, but now and then, the weight of negative perception presses in.
While Dr. Solomon doesn’t claim to know exactly what you experience as a person with Poland syndrome, he has helped many patients like you.
During his 30+ years as a practicing surgeon, Dr. Solomon has listened, learned, and gained valuable insights into Poland syndrome treatment.
That’s why Dr. Solomon doesn’t offer cookie-cutter solutions. You are a unique individual with unique goals and concerns. You deserve no less than a personalized treatment plan that works.

DOCTOR MESSAGE
MESSAGE FROM DR. SOLOMON
Hi, I’m Dr. Mark Solomon, and I’ve been a practicing plastic and reconstructive surgeon for over 30 years.
One of my specialties is performing chest reconstructive procedures, such as Poland syndrome surgery.
Throughout my career, I have treated 150 people with Poland syndrome. Surgery for this condition falls within the heart of reconstructive plastic surgery: restoring form, confidence, and a sense of normalcy.
That’s why I consider helping patients with Poland syndrome to be one of the most meaningful parts of what I do as a plastic surgeon. It’s a privilege to include Poland syndrome surgery in the broader continuum of care I provide.
Whether it’s cosmetic or reconstructive in nature, I always aim to help patients look and feel more like themselves. The greatest fulfillment in my work comes from knowing that these procedures can make a lasting difference in patients’ lives.
I approach Poland Syndrome guided by a simple but vital principle: listen first. Over the years, I’ve learned that every patient has a unique story. By listening carefully, I can educate patients about their options and provide them with the right solution. Read more

PRECISION AND EFFICIENCY WITH A COMPASSIONATE TOUCH:
DR. SOLOMON’S APPROACH TO POLAND SYNDROME SURGERY
Ever felt that you’re being “observed” rather than cared for—treated as a rare condition, not a human being—whenever you enter a clinic?
That won’t happen with Dr. Solomon. He won’t look at you like a puzzle to solve. He understands that you’re not here to be analyzed or explained.
What you can expect is a surgical process built around personal understanding, honest dialogue, and respect for your lived reality.
Our team is also trained to go beyond the diagnosis and meet each patient with focused attention and empathy.
Let us support you in your journey to balance and lasting confidence.
STEP-BY-STEP THROUGH POLAND SYNDROME SURGERY:
WHAT TO EXPECT & HOW WE’LL HELP YOU
Living with a physical difference can be exhausting, especially if you’ve been in situations where you were made to feel like you have to explain your appearance.
Understandably, you don’t want to experience the same treatment when you walk into a clinic.
Poland syndrome may be a rare condition, but you aren’t a medical mystery for a healthcare professional to solve. What you need is a surgeon who has treated Poland syndrome before.
Knowing you’re in the hands of someone who works with intentionality can help ease your worries about the surgical treatment.
As a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with decades of expertise, Dr. Solomon is familiar with Poland syndrome and the surgical nuances it requires.
He won’t need you to explain your own condition. Instead, he will approach each case with purposeful care.
During the consultation, Dr. Solomon will assess your existing muscle, skin, and rib contour using imaging and direct evaluation.
Based on this exam, he will develop a precise surgical plan, often involving custom-designed implants or autologous flaps if needed.
At our clinic, you’ll walk in and find a provider who speaks your language and has a clear understanding of your options.
Here’s how we’ll ensure your transformation journey is safe and comfortable:
Before surgery, Dr. Solomon will carefully evaluate the chest area, addressing concerns like underdeveloped muscles, breast asymmetry, or rib differences.
Immediate preop instructions include showering the night before and again on the morning of surgery. Eating or drinking anything after midnight is prohibited unless specifically advised otherwise by Dr. Solomon.
On the day of the procedure, Dr. Solomon will measure and mark your breasts. These markings will serve as guidelines for the incisions during surgery.
During your Poland syndrome reconstruction, Dr. Solomon uses advanced surgical techniques tailored to your body’s unique anatomy.
The procedure begins under general anesthesia to keep you completely comfortable.
Every operation is performed in a fully certified surgical center and monitored by a board-certified anesthesiologist to ensure patient safety throughout.
Depending on your needs, Dr. Solomon may transfer natural tissue or place implants through strategic, minimally invasive incisions to restore symmetry and natural shape.
Poland syndrome affects everyone differently, so there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
Your treatment might involve placing a chest implant, moving the nipple, expanding the skin over time, or rebuilding the area using a muscle flap or pectoral implant.
For arm and hand issues, Dr. Solomon collaborates with specialized upper extremity surgeons to ensure comprehensive care.
The length of surgery varies based on your unique needs.
Most surgeries last approximately two hours, but more complex cases can take up to four. With Dr. Solomon’s meticulous approach and unparalleled expertise in reconstructive care, you can feel assured you’re in good hands.
In all these steps, you will experience what makes Dr. Solomon’s surgical approach uniquely reassuring.

BENEFITS AND RISKS OF
POLAND SYNDROME RECONSTRUCTION
Benefits
Dr. Solomon’s corrective surgery for Poland syndrome provides these key benefits:
- Improved symmetry
- Enhanced self-image
- Reduced emotional distress
- Increased quality of life
- Natural outcome
- Less noticeable scarring
Risks
Like other surgeries, Poland syndrome reconstruction has some risks:
- Possible bleeding or infection
- Scar tissue forming tightly around the implant (capsular contracture)
- Reduced sensation at the reconstruction site
METICULOUS AND INDIVIDUALIZED
PREOPERATIVE PREPARATION
If you feel overwhelmed by all the information and options, know that you’re not alone.
Choosing to undergo Poland syndrome surgery is a deeply personal and life-shaping decision, and every detail matters.
Dr. Solomon doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. During your consultation, he takes the time to understand your unique anatomy, goals, and concerns.
Whether your chest asymmetry involves missing muscle, breast tissue imbalance, or rib irregularities, he’ll guide you step-by-step through the available options with clarity and compassion.
Every procedure begins with a comprehensive and personalized evaluation.
Dr. Solomon carefully reviews your medical history, performs a physical exam, and orders the appropriate preop tests based on your age and needs.
Most patients will need a blood and basic metabolic panel. This routine blood test provides vital information about their metabolism and chemical balance. Patients over 50 may also need an EKG (electrocardiogram).
The most essential part of your preop surgical assessment is photographs. In rare cases, when deeper anatomical insight is necessary, advanced imaging like CT (computed tomography) scans may be used.
These tools help determine the extent of muscle absence and skeletal differences, so your surgical plan is not only informed but also customized.
Based on this evaluation, Dr. Solomon will develop a precise surgical plan, which may involve custom-designed implants or autologous flaps as needed.
Whatever the path, the goal is the same: a result that aligns with your body and how you want to live in it.
With Dr. Solomon, you won’t just find technical expertise—you’ll find a provider who listens, explains, and walks the path with you from day one.

Dr. Solomon understands this worry. That’s why he stays present after the operation.
Dr. Solomon will meet with you the next day to provide in-person, follow-up care and monitor your progress.

WHO ARE THE CANDIDATES FOR
POLAND SYNDROME SURGERY?
If you have Poland syndrome and you struggle with
-
Breast asymmetry
-
Missing chest muscles
-
Abnormal breast development
Then surgery might be ideal for you.
Dr. Solomon specializes in correcting chest wall and breast issues.
In women and girls, this condition often includes breast underdevelopment, asymmetry, or displaced nipples, sometimes requiring surgery on both sides for balance.
That said, men and women alike can benefit from chest reconstruction using implants or muscle flaps.
Surgical treatment for Poland syndrome may benefit you, depending on your goals (functional, aesthetic, or both).
You may also consider Poland syndrome surgery if you:
-
Feel self-conscious
-
Have low self-esteem due to an uneven chest shape
-
Experience breathing difficulties sometimes due to chest wall instability
Parents should note that while the timing for surgical correction isn’t clearly defined, early intervention can help improve their child’s functional and psychological development.
It is advisable to begin long-term care planning during a child’s developmental period, even if surgery takes place later in life.
Unsure about your options? Discuss your case with a trusted surgeon like Dr. Solomon to know whether Poland syndrome surgery is right for you.
