How long is the recovery period of breast augmentation in Ningbo Plastic Surgery Hospital?
Breast augmentation surgery is a plastic surgery that changes the shape and size of the breast by implanting a prosthesis or autologous fat. Ningbo Plastic Surgery Hospital is a medical institution specialized in plastic surgery in Ningbo, with advanced equipment and an experienced medical team. For patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery, the recovery period is a very important issue. This article will elaborate from four aspects: stable postoperative effect, recovery of activity, wound healing and regular reexamination.
Stable effect after operation
After breast augmentation surgery, patients usually need weeks to months to see the final effect. In the first week after the operation, the patient will feel breast pain and discomfort, which is a normal physiological reaction. Over time, swelling and discomfort will gradually decrease. Generally speaking, about one month after the operation, the patient can obviously feel the shape and size changes of the breast. From 3 to 6 months after operation, the shape and size of the breast will be further stabilized, and the postoperative effect will be gradually obvious.
The key to maintaining stable breast effect is the postoperative maintenance of patients and compliance with medical advice. Patients need to avoid strenuous activities and external force impact on the breast after surgery, so as not to affect the stability of the postoperative effect. Regular reexamination can also help doctors find and solve problems that may occur after surgery.
Active Recovery
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need appropriate rest and recovery time. Generally speaking, patients can get up from bed the next day after surgery. However, patients need to follow the doctor's advice and gradually increase the intensity of activity. In about a week, the patient can gradually start mild exercise, such as walking. After 4-6 weeks, they can gradually return to normal life and work.
During activity recovery, patients need to avoid extensive and intense exercise. High intensity exercise may lead to breast displacement or prosthesis loss. During recovery, patients should pay attention to their own feelings, such as breast pain, redness and swelling, and report to the doctor in time.
wound healing
After breast augmentation surgery, the patient's breast will have a postoperative incision through which the prosthesis or autologous fat will be implanted into the breast. Wound healing is one of the keys to recovery. The doctor will treat the patient's wound after the operation and instruct the patient how to care for the wound.
Generally, the wound will heal and become smoother within 1-2 weeks after operation. The doctor may recommend that the patient use a specific ointment or perform a wound fitting. Patients need to keep their wounds clean to avoid infection.
Correct wound care and regular reexamination are important links to ensure smooth wound healing. Timely detection and treatment of wound problems can reduce the occurrence of complications.
Regular review
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need to return to the hospital regularly for reexamination. The purpose of reexamination is to timely evaluate the postoperative effect, wound healing, and find and solve possible complications.
Generally speaking, patients need to return to the hospital for reexamination in the first week, the first month, the third month and the sixth month after surgery. The doctor will examine the patient's wound, observe the shape and size of the breast, and understand the patient's physical condition. If any abnormality is found, the doctor will provide corresponding treatment suggestions.
Summary
The recovery period of breast augmentation surgery in Ningbo Plastic Surgery Hospital is usually weeks to months. During the recovery period, patients need to pay attention to postoperative maintenance and follow the doctor's advice, including avoiding strenuous activities and external force impact on the breast, regular reexamination, etc. Stable postoperative effect, recovery of activity, wound healing and regular reexamination are important links to ensure the smooth recovery of breast augmentation surgery.
