What should we pay attention to after breast augmentation surgery in Chengdu?
With the progress of society and the change of people's aesthetic concept, more and more women choose breast augmentation surgery to improve their body shape and appearance. As one of the famous plastic and beauty centers in China, breast augmentation surgery is very common in Chengdu. However, surgery is only a part of the whole process, and postoperative care is equally important. This article will elaborate on the main points of nursing after breast augmentation surgery in Chengdu from four aspects: wound care, activity restriction, diet conditioning and bed rest.
Wound care
After breast augmentation surgery, there will be some open wounds in the operation area, so wound care is particularly important. The doctor will bandage the patient after the operation, which usually needs to be replaced at intervals. When changing the dressing, keep the wound and surrounding area clean to avoid bacterial infection. The patient should disinfect the wound according to the doctor's advice, keep the wound dry and clean, and avoid touching the wound with force to prevent infection and scar formation.
In addition, edema and congestion may occur around the wound after surgery, which is a normal reaction. Patients can massage gently to promote blood circulation, but avoid overexertion or strenuous activities. If the wound has abnormal conditions such as redness, swelling, exudation, etc., seek medical advice in time.
Activity restrictions
For patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery, proper movement restriction is one of the important measures to protect the breast. In a period of time after surgery, patients should avoid excessive activity and gravity effects, especially upper limb movement. Excessive force or strenuous exercise may cause the wound to open and prolong the recovery time. Patients should follow the doctor's advice and observe the postoperative activity restrictions to help the wound heal better.
With the recovery after surgery, normal life and exercise can gradually be restored. However, before starting exercise, patients should consult their doctors and follow their doctors' advice to exercise moderately. Excessive activity may cause breast displacement or wound dehiscence, affecting the surgical effect.
Diet conditioning
Postoperative diet is also an important part. First of all, patients should eat a light diet and avoid spicy and greasy food to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort. Secondly, patients should take more food rich in protein and vitamins, which is helpful for wound healing and postoperative recovery. In addition, proper drinking water is also essential, which is conducive to removing toxins accumulated during or after surgery and promoting metabolism.
In terms of diet, each person's physical condition and operation method are different, and the required nutrition intake will also be different. Therefore, patients should consult doctors or professional nutritionists according to their own conditions to develop a diet plan suitable for them.
Bed rest
The recovery period after surgery requires patients to have enough rest and sleep time. Rest in bed helps to reduce body pressure and promote wound healing and recovery. Patients should choose suitable mattresses with moderate hardness and softness, maintain a comfortable posture, and avoid excessive body rotation during sleep to prevent pressure on the breast.
In addition, during bed rest, the patient should avoid keeping the same position for a long time and roll over properly to prevent the pressure from concentrating on specific parts and causing local swelling. Patients can also use special support pillows or easily movable mattresses according to the doctor's suggestions to help the body maintain proper posture and provide better comfort during sleep.
Summary
After breast augmentation surgery in Chengdu, attention should be paid to wound care, activity restriction, diet conditioning and bed rest. Wound care includes keeping the wound clean, controlling edema, and preventing infection. The movement restriction should avoid the influence of strenuous exercise and gravity to protect the breast and wound. The diet should be light, high in protein, rich in vitamins, and proper drinking water is helpful for recovery and detoxification. Bed rest can reduce body pressure and promote wound healing and recovery. Through correct postoperative nursing, it can better promote recovery, reduce complications, and make the effect of breast augmentation surgery more satisfactory.
