How much do you know about the harm of breast augmentation?

(1) capsular contracture

After breast augmentation, a fibrous capsule will be formed around the breast prosthesis. Generally speaking, the capsule is thin and soft, which has little binding force on the prosthesis, so the breast feels better. However, if it is influenced by some factors and stimulates excessive proliferation of fibrous tissue, the capsule will become hypertrophy, which is manifested as contraction from the periphery to the center of the prosthesis, that is, contracture occurs, and the prosthesis contracts in a small capsule cavity.

The causes of capsular contracture include the following aspects:

① The operator's rough operation leads to excessive bleeding and fibrosis after hematoma formation, which leads to thickening of fibrous capsule.

(2) Due to insufficient hemostasis, we dare not peel off the implantation space of the prosthesis boldly, which leads to the inability of the prosthesis to stretch, resulting in capsular contracture.

③ The operating room does not meet the eligibility criteria. If there are too many bacteria in the operating room and the prosthesis is exposed to the air for too long, it will also lead to prosthesis infection and increase the probability of capsular contracture after operation.

④ Silicone prosthesis can avoid absorbing foreign bodies, which will stimulate tissues. Breast augmentation surgery requires strict aseptic operation. It has been found that talcum powder is the cause of capsular contracture, which may be caused by fibrosis of tissues around the prosthesis.

⑤ Inadequate postoperative care, such as swimming before recovery, will lead to excessive movement of pectoralis major muscle, increase friction with prosthesis, and the capsule will not be fully rested, leading to bleeding, which will lead to capsule contracture.

(2) postoperative infection

The main manifestations of infection after breast augmentation are redness, swelling, heat and pain. Hematoma may occur when the prosthesis is improperly breast-enlarged. Implanted prosthesis is a tissue substitute. If the stripping cavity is too large, it may lead to postoperative hematoma, which usually occurs within 48 hours after operation. If it is a small hematoma, the beauty seeker will not feel obvious and can absorb it by himself. However, if a large hematoma is formed, the beauty seeker will feel obvious persistent breast swelling pain, and the touch around the breast is swollen and the tension is relatively large. It seems that the skin is blue and has ecchymosis. Therefore, adequate hemostasis is the key to prevent postoperative hematoma. If the bleeding is not controlled, the prosthesis will not have a good effect.

(3) the prosthesis is exposed

The reason of prosthesis exposure is improper size and position, and the mismatch between prosthesis and stripping cavity may lead to prosthesis displacement, torsion and exposure. The size of the prosthesis should be selected according to the patient's height and chest circumference, and the cavity spacing of the implanted prosthesis should be wider than that of the breast periphery 1cm.

In addition, the fibrous capsule of the prosthesis shrinks and hardens, and the prosthesis looks obvious and will move up and down. The shape looks strange, and it feels hard.

Breast asymmetry

We know that autologous fat breast augmentation can easily lead to the occurrence of breast asymmetry sequelae, because part of the fat will be absorbed by the tissue after injection, and the amount absorbed by both sides of the chest is different, so that the chest will be one big and one small. Breast augmentation with prosthesis can also cause asymmetry on both sides of the breast, which is related to the doctor's technical level and is caused by the deviation of the position of the prosthesis placed in the breast.

(5) the appearance is not good.

Why do we often say that doctors who do breast augmentation require not only surgical skills, but also advanced artistic aesthetics? That's the reason. The aesthetics of the surgeon is directly related to the success of the operation and the perfect appearance. If the doctor's aesthetic level is not in place, he can't specify a personalized plan during face-to-face consultation and surgery, and there is no good aesthetic during surgery, which will also lead to breast augmentation failure.

Can the harm of breast augmentation be avoided?

First of all, you don't need to worry. Not all breast augmentation will have sequelae. Besides the doctor's skill, it is also related to the choice of beauty seekers and postoperative care.

1, choose high-grade plastic surgery hospital. In 2009, China promulgated the Catalogue of Classified Management of Medical Beauty Projects, which subdivided the projects carried out by plastic surgery hospitals into Grade I, Grade II, Grade III and Grade IV.

Medical beauty clinics, beauty clinics, or first-class general hospitals with medical beauty departments can carry out routine first-class beauty projects;

Plastic surgery clinics with anesthesiology departments, or secondary general hospitals with medical beauty departments, can carry out primary and secondary medical beauty projects;

Beauty hospitals can carry out first-,second-and third-level medical beauty projects;

Three-level plastic surgery hospitals or three-level general hospitals with plastic surgery qualifications can carry out one, two, three and four-level plastic surgery projects. The third-level plastic surgery hospital is a plastic surgery hospital that can carry out four difficult operations: facial contour plastic surgery, maxillofacial orthodontics, zygomatic reduction, correction of mandibular angle hypertrophy, breast plastic surgery and abdominal plastic surgery.

It should be noted that those who need to do general anesthesia and breast enhancement surgery are all qualified for level 4 surgery and must be completed by a level 3 hospital. But in reality, many hospitals will operate illegally, so those who seek beauty must distinguish carefully so as not to endanger themselves.

2. General anesthesia or local anesthesia? From the name alone, we all know that general anesthesia is more risky, and for breast augmentation, you must have enough hemostasis technology before you dare to do it. Just like the popular cotton candy breast enhancement technology in China, it can safely peel off the cavity under direct vision, easily implant the prosthesis, avoid capsular contracture and feel soft and natural. Many beauty seekers describe their feelings after breast enhancement surgery as "painful to death". This is because the breast augmentation prosthesis is a foreign body to the cut tissue, which hinders the normal contraposition healing of the tissue, so the wound tissue itself is covered with scars, so the pain is severe after the general anesthesia effect disappears after the operation. Cotton candy breast enhancement uses local fine long-acting anesthetic, which completely stops bleeding and relieves pain during the operation for 48 hours, helping patients to spend the most painful peak period, so it is much more comfortable than traditional surgery after operation.

3. Pay attention to postoperative care. Don't push too hard, bend over or lift weights in the early stage after breast enhancement surgery. These activities may lead to increased chest swelling and even bleeding. Pay attention to lying on your back when sleeping, so as not to oppress your breasts. After removing stitches, you can massage your breasts properly, promote blood and lymphatic circulation, and place your breasts to harden. Massage intensity should be gradual, and don't overdo it at the beginning. Pay attention to prevent infection after operation, and the wound and its vicinity must be kept clean and dry to avoid sequelae after infection. In addition, we should do a good job of reexamination, communicate with doctors in time, and go to the hospital for reexamination once we find bad symptoms.

Breast augmentation brings you not only the change of appearance curve, but also the improvement of self-confidence. As long as you are confident inside and outside, you can exude charming charm. Need to remind everyone that breast augmentation should not be blindly enlarged, which is better for your health. You must be cautious in the first breast augmentation to ensure a success. If breast augmentation fails, it will be more difficult to repair it later.
