A government hospital in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu has launched a clinic that offers free breast reconstruction surgery, officials told the BBC.
The Stanley Hospital, which was already performing free breast reconstruction for cancer survivors, will now also offer free breast alteration surgery.
The procedures will be largely free for patients on low incomes.
Tamil Nadu has one of India's best healthcare delivery systems.
Breast reconstruction surgery can cost upwards of 80,000 rupees ($1,233; £880) in private hospitals.
