What are the risks of prosthetic breast augmentation surgery?
The common side effects of prosthetic breast augmentation are as follows:

1. Sclerosis of breast prosthesis: It is characterized by different degrees of breast sclerosis and even abnormal breast appearance. Postoperative breast massage has certain preventive effect on fibrous capsule contracture.

2. Hematoma: Acute or chronic bleeding from the wound after operation: avoiding menstrual operation, limiting upper limb activity early after operation and massaging the breast are the methods to prevent hematoma. After the hematoma appears, you need to go to the hospital for debridement and hemostasis.

3, infection: acute infection generally occurs within a few weeks after surgery. In case of infection, you need to see a doctor, take out the breast prosthesis if necessary, and then do breast augmentation surgery after 3 months.

4. Prosthesis exposure: Incision infection and dehiscence are common causes of prosthesis exposure. After it happens, you should seek medical attention. When the suture window fails, the wound needs to be repaired again 3 months after healing.

5. Expiration of prosthesis: The validity period of prosthesis breast augmentation is 8- 10 years, and then the prosthesis needs to be taken out again and implanted with a new prosthesis.
