Risks and precautions of breast augmentation surgery
Breast augmentation surgery, or breast plastic surgery, is a plastic surgery that changes the shape and size of women's breasts through surgical methods. Although breast augmentation surgery is very common in the field of beauty and plastic surgery, it is not completely without risks. Before breast augmentation surgery, it is very important to understand the risks of the surgery and pay attention to related matters.
Surgical risk
1. Infection risk: bacteria may be introduced during the operation, leading to infection. Signs of infection can include redness, swelling, pain and fever. If the infection is serious, further treatment may be required, and even the implant may need to be removed.
2. Coagulation: During breast augmentation surgery, there is a high requirement for blood coagulation ability. If the patient has coagulation problems, complications such as bleeding or hematoma may occur during the operation.
3. Unsatisfactory breast shape: The breast shape after surgery may not be as expected, such as asymmetric or unnatural appearance. This may require a second operation to repair.
4. Anesthesia risk: Since the operation requires general anesthesia, there are risks related to anesthesia, such as allergic reactions, dyspnea or adverse drug reactions, which are relatively rare.
Despite these risks, breast augmentation surgery is relatively safe in qualified plastic surgery hospitals. Choosing experienced and professional doctors for surgery is the key to reducing risks.
Precautions before operation
1. Selection of hospitals and doctors: formal and qualified plastic surgery hospitals and experienced plastic surgeons should be selected. The reputation of hospitals and doctors can be evaluated by consulting other patients, online comments and hospital certification.
2. Fully understand the operation process and risks: before deciding to perform the operation, the doctor should be informed about the specific process of the operation, the implants used and the possible risks. Only when you fully understand and think you can accept these risks can you consider surgery.
3. Physical condition assessment: Before the operation, the doctor will conduct a physical condition assessment, including breast tissue examination, breast health and general health conditions. If there are any health problems, it is necessary to communicate with the doctor in advance and receive treatment.
4. Preparation before surgery: Before surgery, the doctor will give specific preparation guidance, such as whether to stop the use of certain drugs, whether to perform gastric lavage before surgery, etc. Preparing according to the doctor's instructions can reduce the risk of surgery.
summary
Breast augmentation surgery, as a common plastic surgery, has certain risks, including infection, coagulation problems, unsatisfactory breast shape and anesthesia risks. Choosing appropriate hospitals and doctors, and fully understanding the surgical process and risks are important factors to reduce risks. In addition, the risk of surgery can also be further reduced through physical condition assessment and preoperative preparation. The most important thing is to think carefully before deciding to perform breast augmentation surgery, and ensure that you have a clear understanding and acceptance of the risks of surgery.
