1、 Preoperative preparation
Before breast augmentation surgery, patients need some preoperative preparation. First, patients need to choose a plastic surgery hospital with rich experience and good reputation to ensure the safety and accuracy of surgery. Secondly, the patient needs to undergo a comprehensive physical examination, including heart, lung and breast examinations, to ensure that the physical condition is suitable for surgery. In addition, patients also need to fully communicate with doctors to understand the risks of surgery and postoperative recovery, so as to make psychological preparations.
In the preoperative preparation stage, patients also need to stop taking some drugs that may affect the surgical results and postoperative recovery, such as anticoagulants and anti-inflammatory drugs. In addition, patients need to follow the doctor's advice and maintain good living habits, such as quitting smoking, limiting alcohol intake and maintaining a healthy diet.
In general, the purpose of preoperative preparation is to ensure the smooth operation and recovery.
2、 Operation process
Breast augmentation surgery is an operation to enlarge the breast by implanting a prosthesis. The operation is usually performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia, and the operation time is generally between 1 and 3 hours.
Before the operation, the doctor will mark the position and incision of the operation on the chest. Then, the doctor will make a small incision in the skin and breast tissue under the breast, and then implant the prosthesis into the breast tissue or under the pectoralis major muscle. After the prosthesis is implanted, the doctor will carefully adjust the position of the prosthesis to achieve the desired effect.
After the operation, the doctor will suture the incision and apply a bandage to protect the breast. After the operation, the patient needs to take necessary precautions under the guidance of the doctor, such as avoiding strenuous exercise and massaging the incision.
3、 Postoperative recovery
Postoperative recovery is a very important stage in plastic surgery. After breast augmentation surgery, patients need to take proper rest and maintenance under the guidance of doctors.
Within one week after the operation, the patient may feel breast swelling, pain and discomfort. The doctor will prescribe appropriate drugs to alleviate these symptoms. Patients need to follow the doctor's advice and avoid strenuous exercise and lifting heavy objects. In addition, the patient needs to wear the bra correctly to support the breast and promote healing.
About 2 weeks after the operation, the patient can gradually return to normal daily life and work. However, patients still need to avoid strenuous exercise and high-intensity activities to avoid affecting breast healing and recovery.
4 to 6 weeks after the operation, the patient can gradually begin to take appropriate exercise and exercise. However, patients still need to follow the doctor's advice and avoid excessive exercise and high intensity activities.
4、 Postoperative precautions
Postoperative precautions are very important for the surgical results and postoperative recovery. The following are some postoperative precautions:
1. Keep the incision dry and clean to avoid soaking the incision.
2. Correctly wear a supportive bra according to the doctor's advice to support the breast and promote healing.
3. Follow the doctor's advice and do not lift heavy objects or perform strenuous exercises to avoid affecting the healing and recovery of the breast.
4. Visit again regularly and report the breast recovery and any discomfort to the doctor in time.
To sum up, the recovery period of breast augmentation surgery varies from individual to individual, and generally takes 2 to 6 weeks. However, please note that postoperative recovery is not only a matter of time, but also patients need to follow the doctor's advice and pay attention to relevant matters after surgery to obtain ideal surgical effect and recovery effect.
