How to avoid complications after breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a method to change the shape and size of the chest through surgery, but some complications may occur after surgery. In order to reduce the risk of complications, patients can take some preventive measures and precautions. The following describes how to avoid complications from four aspects: preoperative preparation, surgical selection, postoperative nursing and regular follow-up.
Preoperative preparation
Preoperative preparation is one of the keys to successful operation. Before choosing to accept breast augmentation surgery, patients should have a detailed consultation and discussion with the doctor to ensure that they understand the purpose, process and risks of the surgery. In addition, patients should:
1. Try to exclude other potential health problems: If the patient has other health problems, such as heart disease, lung disease, etc., a detailed physical examination should be carried out before the operation and the doctor's advice should be followed.
2. Deactivate some drugs: Before the operation, the patient needs to inform the doctor of the drugs and supplements being used. Some drugs and supplements may increase the risk of the operation, and the doctor will give advice on drug withdrawal according to the specific situation.
3. Reasonably arrange the operation time: avoid the operation after taking antibiotics and other drugs in the physiological period or recently, so as not to affect the operation effect and postoperative recovery.
Surgical selection
When choosing the operation mode and hospital, patients should consider carefully and choose a regular hospital and an experienced doctor to reduce the operation risk.
1. Select the appropriate breast augmentation method: select the appropriate breast augmentation method according to your own situation, such as breast augmentation surgery, breast augmentation implant material selection, etc., and make decisions under the advice of the doctor.
2. Select regular hospitals and doctors: select qualified and experienced hospitals and doctors for surgery, and the advancement of medical technology and equipment is also one of the factors for selection.
3. Understand the risks of surgery in detail: Before surgery, doctors should introduce the risks of surgery and possible complications to patients in detail, and patients should consider rationally and make decisions.
Postoperative care
Postoperative nursing is an important link to ensure the surgical effect and recovery. Patients need to follow the doctor's recommendations for nursing and precautions.
1. Wear a suitable supporting bra: doctors will recommend wearing a supporting bra according to the operation conditions and individual differences. Wearing a bra within a specified time can help restore the shape of the chest.
2. Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy load: strenuous exercise and weight bearing should be avoided after surgery. Excessive use of pectoral muscles may affect the surgical effect and recovery process.
3. Regularly clean and replace wound dressings: keep the wound clean after operation, avoid infection, and replace the dressings in time to promote wound healing.
Regular follow-up
Regular follow-up is an important part of postoperative management. Through regular follow-up, problems that may occur after surgery can be found and handled in a timely manner.
1. Regularly recheck the chest: according to the doctor's advice, regularly recheck the chest condition, and pay attention to whether there is swelling, pain, redness and swelling and other abnormalities.
2. Regular breast examination: breast augmentation surgery does not affect routine breast examination, and patients still need to have breast examination on time to exclude other breast diseases.
3. Timely consult the doctor: if there are abnormal conditions after the operation, such as pain aggravation, wound fester, etc., the patient should consult the doctor in time to avoid delaying the treatment time.
