So, how long will it take for breast augmentation surgery in West China Hospital? The following is a detailed description of the duration of breast augmentation treatment from four aspects: preoperative preparation, surgical process, postoperative recovery and effect duration.
Preoperative preparation
Before breast augmentation surgery, the doctor will conduct a detailed interview and communication with the patient, understand the patient's expectations and needs, and perform physical examination on the patient. This process usually takes 1-2 hours. In addition, patients also need to make psychological preparations, understand the risks and precautions of surgery, and sign the consent form for surgery. The length of this phase can vary from patient to patient.
After that, the patient needs to undergo a series of preoperative examinations, including breast ultrasound, electrocardiogram, blood routine test, coagulation function, etc. These examinations usually take half a day. In addition, patients also need to stop taking some specific drugs, such as aspirin, non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, one week before the operation. This phase usually takes 1-2 weeks.
Operation process
Breast augmentation surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, usually under general anesthesia or local anesthesia. During the operation, doctors will select suitable breast augmentation methods according to the patient's individual conditions, such as silicone breast augmentation or saline breast augmentation, and determine the model and location of breast augmentation prosthesis according to the patient's needs. The whole operation process usually takes 1-2 hours, depending on the difficulty and situation.
Postoperative recovery
After the operation, the patient needs to stay in the hospital for observation for 1-2 days to ensure that the recovery of the operation site is good. At this stage, doctors will provide postoperative care to patients, including dressing change, infection prevention, pain control, etc. Within 3 days after operation, the patient needs to stay in bed and rest, and avoid strenuous activities to promote wound healing. In addition, the patient needs to be reviewed regularly according to the doctor's order to monitor the recovery after surgery. This stage usually lasts about one week.
In the process of postoperative recovery, patients need to pay attention to proper diet and avoid excessive intake of salt and caffeinated drinks to reduce the occurrence of edema. In addition, it is also necessary to wear a special bra according to the doctor's requirements and avoid high-intensity exercise. Full recovery takes about 6-8 weeks.
Effect duration
The effect of breast augmentation surgery can last for many years, but with the passage of time, the prosthesis may have some aging and deformation. Generally speaking, the life span of the prosthesis is 10-15 years. In case of abnormal conditions, such as prosthesis rupture or infection, the patient needs to seek medical advice in time and perform repair or replacement surgery.
To sum up, the whole course of breast augmentation surgery in Sichuan Huaxi Hospital usually takes 2-3 weeks from preoperative preparation to surgery process to postoperative recovery. The effect of the operation can last for many years, but regular inspection and maintenance should be paid attention to to ensure the good condition of the prosthesis.
