Risk of breast augmentation surgery in Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital

Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, many women hope to improve the shape of the chest through breast augmentation surgery. Although breast augmentation surgery is carried out in Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital and other professional medical institutions, there are still some risks. It is important to understand these risks before performing breast augmentation surgery in order to make an informed decision.

1. Risk of fainting and blood loss

Breast augmentation surgery is a kind of surgery requiring general anesthesia, so there is a risk of fainting and blood loss. General anesthesia may cause problems such as decreased blood pressure and arrhythmia, leading to fainting. In addition, bleeding may occur during the operation, especially the tissue damage related to the operation.

In addition, anaphylaxis may occur during anesthesia. Although this is rare, it is still necessary to be alert. Therefore, before breast augmentation surgery, the doctor will conduct a detailed anesthetic evaluation on the patient to reduce these risks.

2. Risk of infection and scar

Breast augmentation surgery requires implants in the body, which increases the risk of infection. If aseptic operation is not fully followed during the operation, bacteria may enter the surgical incision, leading to infection. Infection may cause chest pain, redness, swelling, fever and other uncomfortable symptoms.

In addition, because the operation requires an incision on the breast, it may lead to the formation of scars. Although doctors in Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital will try their best to reduce the generation of scars, everyone's skin healing is different, so scars cannot be completely avoided.

3. Implant related risks

The most common method of breast augmentation surgery is to use a prosthesis for implantation, which also brings some implant related risks. Rupture or leakage of the implant may occur, which may lead to changes in the shape of the chest and other discomfort. In addition, the prosthesis may also be displaced, resulting in asymmetric chest shape.

In addition, implants may lead to abnormal breast palpation, which may interfere with future breast X-ray examination. Therefore, when choosing implants, we should fully communicate with doctors to understand the advantages, disadvantages and risks of different types of implants.

4. Psychological and emotional risks

Breast augmentation surgery requires not only physical endurance, but also psychological and emotional preparation. For some patients, they may be dissatisfied or anxious about their appearance after surgery, and even have depressive symptoms. Sometimes, the surgical results may not meet expectations, leading to disappointment and emotional instability.

Therefore, before breast augmentation surgery, patients need to fully communicate with doctors, rationally assess their expectations for surgery, and have a clear understanding of the risks of surgery. In addition, postoperative psychological counseling and support are also very important to help patients cope with various outcomes of surgery.

To sum up, although the breast augmentation department of Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital provides professional services, there are still some risks in breast augmentation surgery. Fainting and blood loss, infection and scar, implant related problems, and psychological and emotional risks are all factors to be considered. Before deciding to perform breast augmentation surgery, patients should fully understand these risks, have a detailed discussion with the doctor, and make necessary psychological preparations.
