Is breast augmentation surgery risky?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, which aims to increase the size and shape of the breast by implanting a prosthesis to meet the aesthetic needs of individuals. However, like any other surgery, breast augmentation surgery also has certain risks. The risks of this operation will be described in detail in the following four aspects: preoperative evaluation, operation process, postoperative complications and effect maintenance.
Risk assessment before operation
Before breast augmentation surgery, doctors need to conduct a detailed preoperative evaluation of patients to determine the indications and risks of surgery. The first is the assessment of physical health, including cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease and blood coagulation function. If patients have these potential health problems, the risk of surgery will increase accordingly. The second is the evaluation of breast tissue, such as breast hyperplasia, mastitis, breast cancer, etc. If the patient has these breast related problems, the risk of surgery will also increase. In addition, the preoperative evaluation should also consider the patient's mental health status to ensure that the patient has the mental tolerance.
In addition, preoperative evaluation should also consider the selection and positioning of breast implants, as well as the design of surgical procedures. If the selection is improper or the surgical planning is unreasonable, it may lead to poor surgical results or complications. Therefore, preoperative evaluation is the key to ensure the success and safety of breast augmentation surgery.
Risk during operation
The risk of breast augmentation surgery mainly exists in the process of surgery. The operation itself is a traumatic operation, which may lead to infection, bleeding and other complications. Although modern medical technology has greatly reduced the occurrence of these risks, there is still a certain probability.
Another risk of surgical procedures is anesthesia related complications. Anaesthesia may cause allergy, dyspnea, arrhythmia and other problems. Therefore, before surgery, doctors need to fully assess the anesthesia risks of patients and take appropriate measures to ensure the safety of surgery.
In addition, the operation technology during the operation will also affect the operation results and risks. If the doctor is not skilled or inexperienced, it may lead to improper placement of implants, unsightly wounds and other problems. Therefore, it is crucial to select hospitals and doctors with rich experience and good reputation for surgery.
Risk of postoperative complications
Postoperative complications of breast augmentation surgery also need attention. Common postoperative complications include infection, hematoma, scar hyperplasia, prosthesis rupture, etc. Although the incidence of these complications is low, it may still affect the surgical effect and patient satisfaction.
In addition, breast implants may also be displaced or displaced, leading to problems such as breast asymmetry. If the implant is improperly selected or the operation is inaccurate, the stability of the implant will be affected, thus increasing the risk of these complications.
Therefore, it is very important to pay close attention to the recovery of patients after surgery, review regularly, and find and deal with any potential problems in a timely manner.
Effect maintenance risk
Finally, there are risks in maintaining the effect of breast augmentation surgery. Over time, breast implants may be aging, cracking, deformation and other problems. In addition, factors such as the natural changes of breast tissue and the fluctuation of body weight may also affect the maintenance of surgical results.
In order to maintain the surgical effect to the greatest extent, patients need to be reviewed regularly, follow the doctor's advice, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and avoid potential adverse effects.
In conclusion, breast augmentation surgery has certain risks in preoperative evaluation, surgical process, postoperative complications and effect maintenance. Therefore, the key to ensure the success and safety of the operation is to select appropriate hospitals and doctors, conduct adequate preoperative evaluation, strictly control the operation process, and closely follow up and maintain after the operation.
