Can I fly after breast augmentation?
Netizen: Hello, expert! A few years ago, when a Russian woman was flying, the news of breast augmentation prosthesis became a hot news at that time, which also made many women very worried about the safety of breast augmentation surgery. So in 2009, Mark Jandrew, M.D., an expert of Kang Hua Plastic Surgery Network and a medical student of Tufts University, suggested that if beauty seekers want to do more complicated operations such as wrinkle removal, bone grinding and breast augmentation, it is best to take a plane after stitches are removed (usually about 10 days). First, because of the low air pressure in the cabin, it is easy to cause blood pressure fluctuation and cause wound bleeding; Second, enough time can make the operation more perfect and reduce the risk of other diseases in the future. However, you can fly at any time after the breast augmentation surgery is fully recovered. Because the prosthesis of breast augmentation is generally water-injected gel, not gas. The air pressure at high altitude affects the gas, not the prosthesis in the body, and the regular prosthesis will not break, so it is no problem to fly like civil aviation. In addition, with the progress of science and technology, the quality of breast augmentation prostheses is very good now, and the probability of rupture is very low. Even if the prosthesis breaks on the plane, it is likely that the prosthesis has problems before boarding the plane, such as the puncture marks are not obvious, or the capsule wall is aging and thinning. Usually, it may not be affected, but after boarding the plane, the prosthesis is oppressed by the change of air pressure, which is likely to rupture, leading to the leakage of silica gel and the patient's nervousness, leading to the fainting phenomenon mentioned in the news.
