Breast augmentation surgery precautions

1. Timely decide on the incision for breast augmentation and the level of implantation of breast augmentation implants. The incisions can be axillary incisions, inframammary fold incisions, or incisions around the areola. The implants can be implanted behind the pectoralis major muscle or behind the breast.

2. Carefully understand the actual level of the doctor who will perform your breast augmentation surgery: including whether he (she) is a professional cosmetic plastic surgeon, whether the breast augmentation plan is basically consistent with the domestically recognized plan, such as whether the choice of incision, the location of the prosthesis and postoperative treatment are reasonable. In case of bleeding, infection and other problems, whether there is actual ability to deal with them.

3. Decide on the type and size of breast implant based on the patient's own conditions and requirements.

4. The selection of breast augmentation materials: This is a very important issue for any patient, including whether the source of the materials meets national requirements and whether the materials have corresponding test data, at least the test data that can be obtained domestically at present.

5. Does the place you choose to have breast augmentation surgery have the conditions and measures to perform breast augmentation surgery and treat problems caused by breast augmentation surgery? Such as strict disinfection conditions, the ability and measures to treat surgical accidents, the ability and measures to deal with postoperative problems such as hematoma, infection and poor morphology.

6. Only those who have undergone a comprehensive physical examination and have no serious medical diseases or local infection can undergo breast augmentation surgery.

7. Breast augmentation surgery should be avoided during the menstrual period.

Avoiding prosthesis rupture

1. After the operation, everyone must pay attention to rest more and try to adopt a semi-recumbent sleeping position to prevent the breast augmentation implant from being compressed and deformed.

2. Do not do strenuous exercise or raise your upper arms within one month after the operation, as this can easily cause the breast augmentation implant to shift.

3. After the operation, the wound should be cared for to avoid infection.

4. The stitches can be removed within one week after the operation. After that, you should wear tights and not bras to prevent the prosthesis from deforming.
