Common sequelae after breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery
With the increasing pursuit of beauty in society, breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery has become a common way for modern women to improve their figure. Although the surgical technique is constantly improving, there are certain risks and sequelae in any operation. Next, we will elaborate on the common sequelae that may occur after breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery.
1. Postoperative infection
Postoperative infection is a common sequela of breast augmentation surgery. Implants need to be placed in breast tissue during surgery, which will form an ideal environment for bacteria breeding around the surgical wound. If the patient's postoperative care is improper or the personal hygiene condition is poor, bacteria can easily invade the wound and cause infection. Symptoms of infection include fever, redness, pain, etc. Severe infection may even lead to abscess or displacement of implants.
The key to prevent postoperative infection is postoperative wound care and personal hygiene habits. The patient should clean and disinfect the wound according to the doctor's instructions, and avoid excessive pressure and friction on the local area to reduce the risk of infection. At the same time, we should ask the hospital about the surgical infection rate before surgery, and choose a hospital with good reputation for surgery.
2. Scar tissue formation
After breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery, patients may have sequelae of scar tissue formation. The incision is usually on one side or the bottom of the breast, and scars may appear during the healing of the incision. The degree of scar varies from individual to individual. Some patients may have only slight scars, while others may have uneven scars.
The methods to prevent scar tissue formation include selecting suitable breast augmentation surgery, doing well in postoperative wound care and later scar repair. Before surgery, doctors should select appropriate surgical methods according to the patient's body shape and needs to reduce the scar formation in the process of wound healing after surgery. After surgery, patients should follow the doctor's instructions and pay attention to wound cleaning and nursing. If abnormal scar formation occurs, the patient can perform scar repair surgery within a period of time after healing to improve the appearance of the scar.
3. Breast hardening
Breast hardening is a possible sequela of breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery in some patients. This is mainly due to adhesion and fibrosis reaction between implants and surrounding tissues after surgery, resulting in breast hardening. The breast stiffening may affect the natural touch of the breast, and even lead to pain and deformity in severe cases.
The methods to prevent breast hardening include selecting suitable implants, postoperative massage and regular reexamination. Before surgery, doctors should select appropriate implants according to the needs and expectations of patients to reduce the mismatch between implants and surrounding tissues. After the operation, the patient should carry out breast massage according to the doctor's instructions to promote the adaptation and loosening of implants and surrounding tissues. At the same time, regular review can help identify potential problems and take measures to deal with them as soon as possible.
4. Abnormal feeling
Postoperative paresthesia is another common sequela after breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery. Injuries to nerves and blood vessels around the breast during surgery may lead to abnormal breast sensation, such as numbness, tingling, allergy, etc. Abnormal sensation is usually temporary, but it may last for a long time or even permanent in a few patients.
At present, it is impossible to completely prevent the occurrence of paresthesia, but selecting a suitable surgical method can reduce the risk. Communicate with the doctor in detail before the operation to understand the influence of the operation method on the breast nerve, and choose the most suitable method for yourself. After the operation, following the doctor's instructions, properly protecting the breast area and avoiding excessive stimulation and compression will help reduce the occurrence of sensory abnormalities.
Summary
Although breast augmentation and breast beauty surgery can help women achieve beautiful chest curves, there are inevitably some sequelae. Common sequelae include postoperative infection, scar tissue formation, breast hardening and sensory abnormalities. However, the risk of sequelae can be reduced and the surgical effect and satisfaction can be improved by selecting appropriate surgical methods, strict postoperative care and regular reexamination.
