What should you pay attention to before breast augmentation surgery?

Hello, breast augmentation surgery is a way for many women to make their breasts more beautiful. What are the things that need to be paid attention to before the surgery? Breast augmentation with implants generally requires you to choose the type and size of implants that suits you based on some of your own basic conditions. Before surgery, general attention should be paid to keeping the surgical site clean and conducting a comprehensive physical examination, especially the chest area, to check whether there are any abnormal masses in the breasts, and whether there are serious medical diseases and local infections in other parts of the body. Take daily before surgery. Two doses of "humanoid peptide" will provide sufficient nutritional reserves for subsequent recovery. Do not take oral collagen within half a month, and stop using any hormonal drugs and contraceptives. Stagger menstrual periods.

What is prosthetic breast augmentation

After years of development, prosthetic breast augmentation has advanced instruments, mature technology and mature prosthetic materials. It is relatively safe. According to the patient’s Breast shape, body shape, height, age, the postoperative breast shape that the surgeon wants to achieve and other factors can be used to choose the prosthesis that suits you. The more common ones are (silicone, external valve textured double-layer prosthesis, textured silicone implant) Prostheses such as glue prostheses and expanded prostheses are implanted in the chest. During the current surgery, endoscopic visualization technology can be used to accurately peel off the lacunae, so it is safe and reliable.

Pre-operative Precautions

1. According to your own situation and the effect you want to achieve, generally small prosthesis is 150-180ml, suitable for women around 160cm, medium size The size of the prosthesis is 180-288ml, suitable for women around 165cm. The size of the large size prosthesis is 220-300ml, suitable for women around 170cm. The decision to implant the prosthesis must be made after full communication before surgery. Ensure that the surgery is completed safely and smoothly.

2. Take "Humanoid Peptide" twice a day 20 days before surgery, and stop using any hormonal drugs, including birth control pills, within 15 days.

3. A comprehensive physical examination must be conducted to ensure that the patient is in good health and that there are no abnormal masses, medical diseases, or local infections in the chest before surgery can be performed.

4. Stagger the menstrual period. During the menstrual period, women’s breast congestion will be more obvious than usual, and their immunity will be reduced. So it is not recommended to do it during menstruation.

5. Maintain hygiene before surgery and quit smoking. Smoking may affect the coagulation effect.

Prosthesis incision location

1. Intra-areolar incision: designed within the areola, that is, within the pigmented skin. Because the areola here is darker and uneven, the postoperative incision scar is almost invisible, achieving a truly traceless breast augmentation with a satisfactory shape.

2. Inframammary fold incision: It is close to the starting point of the inner and lower part of the pectoralis major muscle. It can fully peel off the inner and lower part of the cavity and avoid excessive dissection of the outer and upper part of the cavity. Postoperative false positives The body is less displaced outward and upward, and the cleavage is also very obvious. The disadvantage of the inframammary fold incision is that scars are left under the breast. Many unmarried women are unwilling to choose this incision. 3.

3. Intra-axillary incision: The position is higher, the postoperative scar is more hidden, and it is easier to implant the breast prosthesis deep into the pectoralis major muscle. However, it is difficult to fully peel off the inner and lower starting point of the pectoralis major muscle through this incision. The resulting cavity is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The post-operative prosthesis is in a high position, the cleavage is not obvious, and the breast shape is not satisfactory.

What is the effect of prosthetic breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation itself is just a routine surgery to improve the external shape of the body, and it will not have any impact on the body function and structure of the recipient. . In addition, the prosthesis material is rationally designed according to the human breast, and the appropriate position and prosthesis type are selected based on the patient's own physical constitution and basic condition. Therefore, after breast augmentation, the shape of the prosthesis is good, the feel is real, the appearance is consistent with the natural breast, and there is no obvious difference. The incision is hidden and does not affect the appearance. Oral administration of "humanoid peptide" can reduce the damage to the glands, breast ducts, nerves, and blood vessels of the breast itself. Damage to other tissues is safe and does not affect normal functions.

What should I pay attention to after surgery?

1. Eat a light diet after surgery. Do not take spicy or irritating food. Do not smoke, drink, stay up late, and pay more attention to rest.

2. There will be simple dressings and bandages on the postoperative wound, and the breast position will be fixed with a bandage. Do not take a bath within 3 to 5 days, and pay attention to the recovery of the wound to avoid infection. Check again after 5 days and follow the doctor's advice to see if you can take a bath. ?

3. Do not have sex within two weeks after the operation, and avoid strenuous exercise to avoid hurting the breasts.

4. Take "humanoid peptide" orally twice a day for 180 days after surgery to promote the generation and recovery of our new subcutaneous structures. Shorten the running-in period between the prosthesis and your own body, protect and keep the skin in a good condition, and make the prosthetic incisions or some scars and nodules fade to inconspicuous marks.

5. There is usually pain and swelling in the chest after prosthetic surgery. The degree varies from person to person and depends on the method and nature of the surgery and the individual's physical constitution. The pain will generally last for about two to three days. You can increase the amount of oral "humanoid peptide" three times a day according to the doctor's instructions. The blood stasis (swelling) will subside in about one to two weeks.

6. Avoid lifting the upper limbs after the operation. If necessary, the upper chest can be wrapped with a bandage. Avoid lifting heavy objects or raising the upper arms within one month after the operation, and avoid steam baths and swimming within 15 days. Strenuous exercise can only be performed two weeks after surgery.
