Selection of breast augmentation materials
Breast augmentation surgery is a method to enlarge the chest by implanting prosthesis, and the selection of suitable materials is crucial to the surgical effect. Next, we will introduce the selection of materials for breast augmentation surgery from four aspects: safety, naturalness, durability and surgical plasticity.
1. Safety
The safety of breast augmentation materials is directly related to whether there will be complications after the operation. At present, the commonly used breast augmentation materials mainly include saline prosthesis and silicone prosthesis.
The saline prosthesis is made by filling the silicone outer bag with saline. If the prosthesis is broken, the saline will be absorbed and discharged from the body, which is harmless to the human body. The silicone prosthesis is composed of high molecular silicone, which may spread to surrounding tissues after rupture, causing complications.
Considering the safety factors, saline prosthesis is widely used in breast augmentation surgery.
2. Naturalness
The goal of breast augmentation surgery is to make the chest look natural and even. In terms of material selection, materials similar to human tissues can be considered to achieve more natural effects.
Autologous fat transplantation is a method of breast augmentation using self fat. Because fat is similar to chest tissue, it can make the result more natural. However, autologous fat transplantation needs to extract additional fat, so the operation is more difficult.
Considering the degree of naturalness and the difficulty of surgery, silicone prosthesis is also widely used in breast augmentation surgery because of its good degree of naturalness and shape stability.
3. Persistence
The durability of breast augmentation surgery refers to how long the surgical effect can last. In terms of material selection, materials with good durability can be considered.
The durability of saline prosthesis is relatively short, generally about 10 years, while that of silicone prosthesis is relatively long, generally up to 15-20 years.
Considering the factors of durability, silicone prosthesis is an ideal choice.
4. Surgical plasticity
Surgical plasticity refers to whether breast augmentation materials can be adjusted and modified according to individual needs. In terms of material selection, materials with good plasticity can be considered.
Normal saline prosthesis can adjust the size and shape of the chest by injecting normal saline, while silicone prosthesis cannot be adjusted after surgery.
Considering the factors of surgical plasticity, physiological saline prosthesis or silicone prosthesis can be selected according to specific needs.
Summary
Considering factors such as safety, naturalness, durability and surgical plasticity, the selection of materials for breast augmentation surgery needs to be determined according to individual conditions and needs. Saline prosthesis is widely used because of its good safety and surgical plasticity, while silicone prosthesis has better naturalness and durability. In order to obtain the ideal breast augmentation effect, it is recommended to operate in a regular hospital, communicate with the doctor in detail, and select suitable breast augmentation materials.
