1、 Postoperative infection
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, but complications may occur after surgery, of which postoperative infection is the most common one. Postoperative infection is mainly caused by bacterial infection during operation. If symptoms such as redness, swelling, fever and pain occur after surgery, it may be the manifestation of postoperative infection.
If postoperative infection occurs, seek medical advice in time. First of all, patients should go to formal plastic surgery hospitals and choose experienced plastic surgeons for treatment. The doctor will prescribe appropriate antibiotics for oral or intravenous treatment according to the infection. At the same time, patients need to do a good job of rest and maintenance after surgery to avoid stimulating wounds and enhance immunity.
In addition, postoperative infection also requires patients to pay attention to personal hygiene in their daily life, wash their hands frequently, change their underwear frequently, and avoid contact with contaminated articles. Only in this way can we better prevent and deal with the occurrence and development of postoperative infection.
2、 Thoracic deformity
Postoperative chest deformity is a common complication. Postoperative chest deformity may be manifested as abnormal position of augmentation prosthesis, asymmetry of chest size, and wound unclosed. These conditions seriously affect the overall beauty and mental health of patients.
Once chest deformity occurs, the patient should seek medical advice in time. Regular plastic surgery hospitals will formulate corresponding treatment plans according to the specific conditions of patients. Common treatment methods include open reduction, excision and replacement of prosthesis, adjustment of postoperative band, etc.
In daily life, patients also need to avoid strenuous exercise and external force collision, reduce the stimulation to the chest, so as not to promote the occurrence and aggravation of postoperative deformity.
3、 Depression and scar
Some patients may have depression and scar in the healing period after breast augmentation surgery. The depression may be caused by uneven tissue repair at the surgical site, and the scar is caused by poor healing of the surgical incision.
For concave and scar problems, you can choose to receive repair surgery. Plastic surgeons will select appropriate surgical methods for repair according to the patient's condition. For example, fat filling, autologous fat transplantation, scar repair and other methods can be used to improve the situation of depression and scar.
4、 Postoperative pain
Postoperative pain is inevitable in breast augmentation surgery. Postoperative patients often feel chest pain and distension. This kind of pain usually reaches its peak within 48 hours after surgery, and then gradually reduces.
In terms of post-operative pain management, patients can take the following measures to alleviate symptoms. First of all, patients need to take pain relief drugs, such as ibuprofen, paracetamol, etc., according to the doctor's advice to reduce pain. Secondly, patients need to pay attention to maintaining adequate rest and sleep, and avoid excessive activity. In addition, cold compress is also an effective way to relieve pain, which can be gently applied to the chest with a cold compress bag for 15-20 minutes each time.
In a word, the complications after breast augmentation surgery need to be treated timely and effectively. Patients should choose a regular hospital and an experienced doctor for treatment, follow the doctor's advice for postoperative care, pay attention to personal hygiene, eat reasonably, and avoid strenuous exercise and external force collision to reduce the occurrence and development of complications.
