Postoperative nursing care of breast augmentation surgery in Chengdu West District Hospital
Postoperative nursing of breast augmentation surgery is very important for the effect and recovery of surgery. As a professional plastic surgery hospital, Chengdu West District Hospital attaches importance to the details of postoperative nursing and provides high-quality nursing services for patients. The following will be elaborated from four aspects.
Postoperative rest and sleep
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need to have full rest and keep good sleep to promote wound healing and body recovery. The hospital will provide patients with a comfortable ward environment and monitor their sleep. The patient should keep a stable sleeping posture to avoid compressing the newly implanted breast. The use of a special pillow after breast augmentation surgery is helpful to alleviate discomfort.
During the rest period after the operation, the patient should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting to avoid causing the incision to split or increasing the risk of bleeding. The professional nurses in the hospital will regularly check the wound to see if there is any abnormal situation such as bleeding or infection, and handle it according to the patient's situation.
In addition, patients should follow the doctor's instructions and take anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs on time to control pain and prevent infection.
Scar management
After breast augmentation surgery, patients may have varying degrees of scars. The hospital will provide patients with professional scar management services, including regular scar care and use of specific scar repair products. The hospital will develop a personalized scar care program based on the patient's condition and scar degree to help patients reduce the symptoms of scars.
During postoperative recovery, patients need to avoid irritants that cause scar pigmentation, such as direct sunlight and hot water immersion. The hospital will teach patients the correct methods of scar maintenance, including the use of scar repair cream, massage, and regular and timely follow-up visits.
Breast augmentation compression suit
After surgery, patients need to use special breast augmentation compression clothing to protect the newly implanted breast and help the breast to better restore its shape. The hospital will provide the patients with appropriate compression clothing and guide the correct wearing methods according to the breast conditions and surgical results of the patients.
The time and amount of wearing breast augmentation compression clothing will depend on the recovery of the patient, which usually lasts for weeks or months. The patient should follow the doctor's guidance, correctly wear and adjust the compression clothing to ensure the effect of breast recovery.
Regular follow-up
In order to ensure the stability and safety of the postoperative effect, the hospital will require patients to return to visit and follow up regularly. The doctor will evaluate the recovery of the patient and adjust the nursing plan and medication in a timely manner.
During regular follow-up visits, the hospital will conduct thorough examinations, including breast ultrasound, breast disease screening, etc., to eliminate potential complications. The hospital will also provide breast health education for patients, teach them the correct breast self inspection methods, and provide necessary breast health care suggestions.
In a word, Chengdu West District Hospital attaches great importance to details and provides all-round nursing services in terms of post breast augmentation care. After the operation, patients only need to follow the guidance of doctors and nurses, correctly carry out rest, scar management, wear breast augmentation compression clothing, and regularly return to visit and follow up, and can obtain ideal results and breast health.
