Can breast augmentation surgery be performed without hospitalization?
1. Definition and common situation of breast augmentation surgery
Breast augmentation surgery, as the name implies, is to change the size, shape or position of the breast through surgery to achieve the purpose of breast plastic surgery. It is one of the common and effective plastic surgery in cosmetic surgery.
In most cases, breast augmentation surgery requires hospital observation and nursing. There may be pain, swelling, congestion and other discomfort after the operation, which needs to be monitored and treated in the hospital. In addition, regular reexamination and removal of the chest drainage tube by the doctor are required after the operation to ensure a good recovery of the operation.
However, for some simple breast augmentation surgery, it can be performed in the daytime surgery center instead of hospitalization. This mainly depends on the individual condition of the patient and the complexity of the type of surgery.
2. Breast augmentation surgery without hospitalization
For some simple breast augmentation surgery, patients may not need to be hospitalized. Here are some common situations:
1. Underarm incision breast augmentation: This operation is suitable for patients with rich local fat and low skin relaxation. Implantation through subaxillary incision has less trauma and faster recovery.
2. Focused ultrasound breast augmentation: This is a non-surgical breast augmentation method. Focused ultrasound can promote breast tissue proliferation to achieve the effect of breast augmentation. Since no surgical incision is required, patients can perform daytime surgery and go home on their own.
3. Breast augmentation with fat filling: This is a breast augmentation method that injects the patient's own fat into the breast. The surgical trauma is small, and the impact on breast tissue is also small, so the patient may not need to be hospitalized.
3. Precautions for breast augmentation surgery without hospitalization
Although breast augmentation surgery that does not require hospitalization is applicable to some simple situations, patients still need to pay attention to the following matters before and after surgery:
1. Choose a regular hospital and an experienced doctor: Breast augmentation surgery is a high-risk operation, and it is very important to choose a suitable hospital and doctor. When choosing a hospital, patients can refer to the reputation of the hospital, the success rate of surgery, and the experience and qualifications of doctors.
2. Preoperative evaluation and preparation: The patient needs to receive a comprehensive preoperative evaluation, including physical condition, laboratory tests, imaging examinations, etc. In addition, it is also necessary to follow the doctor's instructions and make appropriate preparations, such as stopping medication and fasting.
3. Postoperative recovery and reexamination: even if hospitalization is not required, patients still need to follow the doctor's guidance after surgery, pay attention to rest and diet, and avoid strenuous exercise and fatigue. In addition, it is also necessary to go to the hospital for reexamination on time so that doctors can evaluate the surgical effect and deal with possible complications in a timely manner.
4. Summary
In general, there is no need to be hospitalized for breast augmentation surgery, but this is mainly applicable to some simple surgical methods. For patients with complicated operations and special individual conditions, hospitalization observation and nursing are still needed. No matter whether hospitalization is required or not, patients should be cautious in selecting the operation mode and hospital, reasonably evaluate their own conditions, and follow the guidance of doctors to ensure the safety and effect of the operation.
