What are the dangers of breast augmentation?

All female friends hope to have a pair of proud breasts, which can better show their charm. However, the reality is contrary to their wishes. Some female friends have relatively small breasts and finally choose breast augmentation, which actually brings many harms, such as hematoma, paresthesia, rupture of silicone capsule prosthesis, capsular contracture, hardening of breasts, abnormal position, etc.

1. Hematoma

The incidence of this type of breast augmentation complication is about 1%. The prevention method is to grasp the accurate level of peeling and not deviate. The treatment method for this kind of breast augmentation sequelae is: remove the breast augmentation implant, clear the blood clot, and then replace the breast augmentation implant after sufficient bleeding has stopped.

2. Abnormal sensation

The manifestations of this breast augmentation sequelae include skin hypersensitivity, decreased or even disappearance of sensation, sagging breasts, and poor or absent erections. The prevention method is to be familiar with the anatomical direction and distribution of the nerves and to be gentle during the dissection.

3. Silicone capsule prosthesis rupture

The way to prevent this kind of breast augmentation sequelae is to carefully examine the prosthesis. The treatment method for this kind of breast augmentation sequelae is: remove the prosthesis under sterile operation, remove the silicone, clean it and then re-implant a new prosthesis.

4. Capsular contracture and hardening of the breast

Methods to prevent this kind of breast augmentation sequelae: the surgical operation should be meticulous to reduce damage; the dissection cavity should be large enough to reduce tension. The treatment method for this kind of breast augmentation sequelae is: the cyst wall should be incised under anesthesia, the breast prosthesis should be removed, the capsule should be completely removed, and the cavity should be enlarged and re-implanted.

5. Abnormal position

Methods to prevent the sequelae of breast augmentation: draw the lines symmetrically and peel symmetrically before surgery, and limit strenuous upper limb activities for 2 weeks. The treatment method for this kind of breast augmentation sequelae is: the breast augmentation prosthesis needs to be removed, peeled off and then implanted again.

6. Exposure of prosthesis

This type of breast augmentation complication is relatively rare. Prevention method: suture tightly in layers.
