15 years transforming life stories

Rebuilding more than an image. Rebuilding life stories.

At the FEMPO Foundation we support women who have faced breast cancer, free of charge, offering them the opportunity to reconstruct the nipple-areola complex through oncological breast dermopigmentation, together with specialized emotional support. Our work brings together care, psycho-oncology, education, scientific research and institutional collaboration. Because after medical treatment another essential stage begins: looking at oneself again, recognizing oneself and regaining confidence in one's own body image.

Medicine saves lives. Reconstruction accompanies the journey back to living them.

Four lines of action

Recovery needs much more than a procedure.

That is why we bring together four lines of action that combine specialized care, emotional well-being, education and institutional continuity.

Oncological breast reconstruction

We reconstruct the nipple-areola complex through oncological breast dermopigmentation for women who have undergone a mastectomy. Each treatment requires a specialized assessment, medical indication or clearance when applicable, informed consent and safety protocols. Our commitment is that this reconstruction is free of charge for patients admitted to the program.

Psycho-oncology and mental health

We support the emotional processes that may arise during diagnosis, treatment and the period after breast cancer. We pay special attention to body image, loss, self-esteem, relationships and the return to everyday life, through individualized and respectful clinical listening.

Education and prevention

We share clear, evidence-based information to encourage timely consultation, early detection and access to care networks. We run activities for communities, workers, municipalities and organizations, promoting health care beyond the month of October.

Women from FEMPO's #PonemosElPecho campaign

#PonemosElPecho

We want to reconstruct 10,000 more women. And to do it, we need your help.

#PonemosElPecho (“we put our chest forward”) is an invitation to turn solidarity into real access to care that supports the physical, emotional and social well-being of women who have faced breast cancer.
