Operation schedule
Breast augmentation surgery is generally performed by plastic surgeons in cosmetic and plastic hospitals. Before the operation, the patient needs to consult and interview the doctor in detail, and the doctor will make the operation schedule according to the actual situation of the patient. Generally, the operation time is determined according to the hospital's appointment and the patient's personal factors. Generally, an appointment will be made in advance. The patient needs to make preparations in advance according to the doctor's suggestions, such as stopping using anticoagulant drugs, medical examination, stopping eating, etc. On the day of operation, the patient needs to arrive at the hospital on time and make preparations before the operation as scheduled.
Preoperative preparation
Before surgery, patients need to undergo a number of examinations, including blood routine, coagulation function, breast imaging, etc. These examinations can help doctors understand the breast condition of patients and ensure the safety of surgery. In addition, the patient should also tell the doctor about his physical condition and allergy history in detail to avoid accidents during the operation.
Operation duration
Operation duration refers to the time spent in the whole breast augmentation operation, including surgical preparation, operation, and suture and bandage after the operation. The duration of the operation depends on the doctor's experience and the patient's specific situation, and it can be completed within 2-3 hours. The length of operation will also be affected by the method and difficulty of operation. Common methods of breast augmentation surgery include implantation through the incision at the medial lower margin of the breast or the armpit, and patients and doctors jointly choose the most suitable scheme.
Postoperative recovery
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need some rest and precautions. On the first day after the operation, the patient needs to be hospitalized for observation, and the doctor will give necessary care and instructions. Generally, patients can return to normal life within one week after surgery, but they need to avoid strenuous exercise and stress. Two to four weeks after the operation, the patient needs to be revisited. The doctor will evaluate and guide the patient according to his recovery, and provide necessary precautions.
To sum up, the duration of breast augmentation surgery depends on individual conditions and surgical methods. Patients need to communicate with doctors to determine the most suitable program for them. The preparation before operation is as important as the recovery after operation, and patients need to actively cooperate with doctors' suggestions and guidance. Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, but there are still risks in the surgery. Patients should choose regular hospitals and experienced doctors to operate to ensure the safety and effect of the surgery.
