Will there be side effects after breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, which aims to increase the shape and size of the breast by implanting silicone or saline prosthesis. Although people's desire for a perfect figure is increasing, whether there will be side effects after breast augmentation surgery is the focus of attention. This article will elaborate on the possible side effects after breast augmentation surgery from four aspects: postoperative sensation, appearance, pain and postoperative complications.
Postoperative sensation
After surgery, there may be some changes in the sensation of the breast area. Some patients may feel numbness or allergy in the breast area within days or weeks after surgery. In the process of implanting the prosthesis, the operation may cause a certain degree of stimulation or stretching to the breast nerve, leading to postoperative reactions. This feeling is usually temporary. With the progress of postoperative rehabilitation, the breast feeling will gradually return to normal. However, some patients may have sensory loss or abnormality, which may be related to nerve injury during the operation, and need to pay close attention and communicate with doctors in a timely manner.
In addition, there may be changes in touch sensitivity after surgery. Implantation of silicone or saline implants sometimes affects the softness and elasticity of the breast, so some patients may feel that the breast becomes harder or less natural. This situation may affect some women's sense of touch on the breast, and patients need to be given some psychological guidance and understanding.
In general, postoperative sensory changes are the normal physiological response of breast augmentation surgery. Most patients will gradually return to normal after surgery, but individual differences need attention.
Appearance results
The appearance after breast augmentation surgery is the key factor for many women to choose surgery. The purpose of the operation is to improve the shape and size of the breast, so that patients can be more satisfied with their own figure. After the operation, the breast will present a fuller and more straight appearance, making the whole person look more sexy and confident.
However, appearance results are also affected by some factors. The first is the breast conditions and individual differences before surgery. Patients with small or sagging breasts before surgery may need breast lifting surgery to obtain better appearance. The second is the experience and technical level of the surgeon. The professional level of the surgeon will directly affect the appearance after the operation. Therefore, it is very important to choose a formal and experienced plastic surgery hospital.
In addition, deviation or turnover of breast prosthesis after surgery may lead to unsatisfactory appearance. Regular reexamination and close attention after surgery are the key to ensure that the breast maintains a good appearance. Once any abnormality of the prosthesis is found, the doctor should be contacted in a timely manner.
pain perception
After breast augmentation surgery, patients may feel mild or moderate pain and discomfort within a few days after the surgery. This is due to surgical incision and trauma of breast tissue. Usually, doctors will give patients some pain relief drugs to relieve pain.
The degree and duration of pain varies from person to person, and it can be gradually relieved in a few days to weeks. At this stage, patients need to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting, keep the incision area clean and dry, and avoid infection.
If the pain continues to increase or is accompanied by other abnormal symptoms, such as fever, redness and swelling, it may be a manifestation of surgical complications. The patient should immediately contact the doctor for inspection and treatment.
Postoperative complications
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, but there are also some risks and complications. Postoperative complications may include infection, prosthesis rupture or displacement, breast tissue necrosis, etc. Although these complications are relatively rare, they still need to be noticed by patients.
In order to reduce the risk of complications, it is very important to choose a formal plastic surgery hospital. Regular hospitals will have professional physician teams and advanced surgical equipment to provide safer and more reliable surgical services. In addition, postoperative nursing and rehabilitation are also the key to reduce the risk of complications. Patients need to carry out recovery training according to the doctor's suggestions, regularly review and timely communicate with the doctor.
Summary
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, after which some side effects may occur. These side effects include postoperative sensory changes, appearance results, pain and postoperative complications. Most side effects are temporary and will gradually disappear with the progress of postoperative rehabilitation. However, individual differences need attention and timely communication with doctors. Choosing a formal plastic surgery hospital and postoperative nursing and rehabilitation are also key to reducing the risk of side effects. For those who need breast augmentation surgery, it is very important to understand and prepare psychologically, understand the medical knowledge and risks of surgery, and fully communicate and consult with doctors.
