Why public hospitals do not have breast augmentation surgery options
In modern society, breast augmentation surgery has become a common plastic surgery. Many women hope to improve their chest shape through this surgery. However, we note that public hospitals often do not have breast augmentation surgery options, but only provide some basic plastic surgery. This is for some reasons.

1. Medical and moral factors
Public hospitals, as social medical security institutions, assume the responsibility of providing basic medical services to ensure the basic health needs of the people. Breast augmentation surgery is a kind of cosmetic surgery, not a disease treatment category, so public hospitals pay more attention to the treatment and rescue of diseases. In addition, public hospitals should also follow medical ethics and professional ethics, not excessively pursue economic interests, but pay more attention to the health and safety of patients.
Breast augmentation surgery requires a series of professional training, including selection of breast augmentation materials, mastery of surgical techniques, and postoperative care. The plastic surgeons in public hospitals mainly receive training related to functional plastic surgery, and the technology and experience of breast augmentation surgery are relatively small. In order to ensure the safety and effect of patients' surgery, public hospitals can choose not to provide breast augmentation surgery.
In addition, public hospitals should follow the medical insurance policy to better allocate the limited medical resources to the majority of patients. The cost of breast augmentation surgery is high, and many people cannot afford this kind of surgery. In order to prevent medical resources from being excessively occupied by a few wealthy people, public hospitals often only provide some basic medical services.
2. Risk and consequence considerations
Although breast augmentation surgery can improve the appearance of the chest, there are still some risks and consequences. For example, improper operation may lead to infection, bleeding, scar hyperplasia and other complications; Breast enhancement materials may cause rejection reaction of the body. Public hospitals generally lack professional plastic surgery teams and complete equipment to provide high-quality, low-risk breast augmentation surgery.
In addition, breast augmentation surgery is a permanent operation, once the operation is completed, it is difficult to recover. The plastic surgery department of public hospitals pays more attention to restoring the natural appearance and function of patients, and is unwilling to assume the responsibility for disputes and follow-up treatment caused by unsatisfactory surgery.
3. Division of labor in professional fields
With the progress of society and the improvement of people's demand for beauty, the plastic surgery market has developed rapidly. Breast augmentation surgery has become an independent professional field, which requires rich experience and relevant technologies. In order to provide better plastic surgery services, many private plastic surgery hospitals have set up special plastic surgery departments and teams to provide various plastic surgery, including breast augmentation surgery.
The responsibility of public hospitals is to provide comprehensive medical services, not only to treat diseases, but also to promote scientific research and cultivate medical talents. Therefore, public hospitals pay more attention to the development of traditional medical disciplines, while the development of plastic medicine is handed over to private plastic surgery hospitals and plastic surgery specialty hospitals.
4. Public resource allocation and social impact
Public hospitals are medical institutions responsible for national medical security. They need to allocate medical resources reasonably to meet the basic medical needs of the masses. Breast augmentation surgery, as a kind of cosmetic surgery, does not belong to the category of basic medical needs, and public hospitals have limited resources and capabilities, so it is not appropriate to invest too much resources in this area.
In addition, the behaviors and policies of public hospitals often play a role of demonstration and guidance, and have a certain impact on the shaping of social ethos and values. Public hospitals pay more attention to the cultivation of traditional medical knowledge and values, advocate healthy and natural beauty, and do not excessively pursue changes in appearance and blindly pursue beauty standards. Therefore, public hospitals tend to provide basic medical services rather than offering breast augmentation surgery.
Summary
Public hospitals do not provide breast augmentation surgery options based on a comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. Medical and moral factors make public hospitals pay more attention to disease treatment and patient health than cosmetic surgery. The consideration of risks and consequences makes it difficult for public hospitals to provide high-quality, low-risk breast augmentation surgery. The division of labor in professional fields makes breast augmentation surgery a professional field of private plastic surgery hospitals. Public resource allocation and social impact make public hospitals pay more attention to basic medical needs and the values of healthy natural beauty. In short, the positioning and responsibilities of public hospitals decide that they do not provide breast augmentation surgery options.
