Does breast augmentation surgery require hospitalization
With the continuous development of the beauty and plastic industry, more and more women begin to consider breast augmentation surgery to improve their figure and self-confidence. However, before deciding on breast augmentation surgery, many people are concerned about whether they need to be hospitalized or not. The following four aspects will be elaborated in detail from the operation process, operation mode, pain degree and postoperative nursing.
Operation process
Breast augmentation surgery is usually divided into local anesthesia and general anesthesia. For less complicated breast augmentation surgery, local anesthesia can be selected in most cases, and the operation time is relatively short, about 1-2 hours. For some patients who are complicated or need breast correction surgery, general anesthesia may be required, and the operation time is relatively long. You can choose whether to be hospitalized or not according to the specific situation of the patient and the doctor's suggestions.
On the day of operation, patients can choose whether to be hospitalized or not. It is usually recommended to stay in hospital for one night so as to check and observe the postoperative conditions in time and give corresponding care and treatment. The next day after the operation, the doctor will check the breast, treat the wound and change the dressing. If the patient is in good condition after surgery, he can choose to leave the hospital for postoperative recovery and nursing.
Operation mode
There are two common methods of breast augmentation surgery, breast prosthesis implantation and autologous fat transplantation. For the operation method of implanting breast prosthesis, a certain degree of incision and cavity preparation is generally required. The operation is more complex, and the breast healing needs to be closely observed after the operation. The operation of autologous fat transplantation is relatively simple. It does not need to implant other substances. It only needs to be injected into the breast after local liposuction. The postoperative recovery is faster.
For the operation method of implanting breast prosthesis, because the operation is complex and involves wounds, it is generally necessary to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time to ensure wound healing and eliminate complications. The operation of autologous fat transplantation is relatively simple, and you can generally choose whether to be hospitalized, but according to the individual differences of patients and the doctor's suggestions, you can choose to be hospitalized to ensure the best postoperative effect.
Degree of pain
Breast augmentation surgery usually has some pain, especially in the days after the operation. After the operation, the breast will feel swollen and painful, and corresponding analgesia treatment should be carried out according to the doctor's instructions. If the patient has severe postoperative pain or needs strong analgesic drugs for control, the doctor may suggest hospitalization for timely observation, adjustment of drug treatment and professional nursing.
The degree of postoperative pain is also related to the mode of operation. The operation of implanting breast prosthesis is more complicated, and the surgical wound is large, so the patient may have a long time of pain. Since the wound of autologous fat transplantation is small, the postoperative pain of patients is relatively light. According to the individual differences of patients and the evaluation of doctors, you can choose whether to be hospitalized or not and how to manage pain.
Postoperative care
Both breast prosthesis implantation and autologous fat transplantation require some postoperative care and observation. Patients need to return regularly after surgery to check their breasts to assess the condition and effect of their breasts. Follow the doctor's advice after the operation, such as wearing a specific bra, avoiding strenuous exercise, and keeping a rest.
During hospitalization, the hospital will arrange professional nursing staff to provide postoperative care and guidance to patients, so as to help patients better carry out postoperative care and reduce complications. Therefore, choosing hospitalization can provide better postoperative care and guidance to ensure the best postoperative effect.
Summary
To sum up, whether the breast augmentation surgery needs hospitalization should be comprehensively considered according to the surgical process, surgical method, pain degree and postoperative nursing. For the relatively simple and safe operation mode, you can choose whether to be hospitalized or not. However, for patients with complicated surgery and need close observation and nursing after surgery, it is recommended to choose hospitalization to ensure the best postoperative effect and safety.
Before deciding whether to be hospitalized, the patient should fully communicate and discuss with the doctor to understand the specific situation of the operation and the requirements for postoperative care. At the same time, formal and professional plastic surgery hospitals should be selected to ensure the safety and effect of surgery. Breast augmentation surgery is a surgery that needs careful consideration. Only under the guidance and advice of doctors can patients make a wise choice.
