What diet should be paid attention to after breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common way of modern women's beauty, which can improve the shape of the chest and enhance women's self-confidence. However, postoperative diet is very important to help patients reduce the risk of complications and promote postoperative recovery. The following details the diet that needs attention after breast augmentation surgery from four aspects: diet type, diet time, diet amount and diet habits.
Type of diet
Postoperative diet should be healthy and nutritious, and excessive intake of high calorie, high fat and high sugar foods should be avoided. Here are some recommended types of diet:
1. High protein food: The chest needs to recover tissues and muscles after surgery. Protein is the basic component of cell construction, so some high protein food should be added to the diet, such as chicken, fish, beans, dairy products, etc.
2. Food rich in vitamins and minerals: The body needs enough vitamins and minerals to support recovery and immune system functions after surgery, and can take in a large number of vegetables, fruits and nuts.
3. Adequate water: adequate water intake should be maintained after surgery to help detoxification and promote recovery. Drink enough water and fresh juice every day, and avoid drinking too much coffee and carbonated drinks.
Eating opportunity
The timing of diet is also an important factor for postoperative diet. Here are some suggested eating opportunities:
1. The day before the operation: the day before the operation should focus on light and digestible diet, and avoid excessive fat and carbohydrate intake. At the same time, we should stop eating at night before surgery and keep an empty stomach.
2. The first day after discharge: On the first day after discharge, it is advisable to eat light and digestible food, a small amount of food and many meals, so as to avoid overloading the gastrointestinal tract.
3. Days after operation: soft food and easily digestible food should be the main food in the days after operation to avoid irritating and overheated food. At the same time, we should also avoid overeating, so as not to cause stomach distension and other discomfort.
Diet
The control of diet is very important for postoperative recovery. Here are some suggestions:
1. Eat more than one meal and less than one meal: After surgery, eat more than one meal and less than one meal. Each day can be divided into 5-6 meals, with moderate amount of each meal, to avoid overeating.
2. Control of total calories: In order to avoid excessive weight gain after surgery, total calorie intake should be controlled. The diet should be scientifically matched, and the proportion of staple food, protein and fat should be reasonably controlled.
3. Avoid alcoholic beverages: alcoholic beverages should be avoided after surgery, because alcohol may interfere with the postoperative recovery process and increase the risk of infection and bleeding.
eating habits
It is very important for postoperative recovery to develop good eating habits. Here are some suggestions:
1. Balanced nutrition: After surgery, we should adhere to balanced nutrition, take more various foods, and avoid food preference and malnutrition.
2. Wash hands before meals: keep good hand hygiene before meals to avoid infecting food and affecting postoperative recovery.
3. Slow down eating: chew carefully and swallow slowly after operation to avoid overeating, reduce gastrointestinal burden and increase satiety.
To sum up, postoperative diet is an important part of breast augmentation surgery. It is helpful for postoperative rehabilitation and recovery by controlling the type, timing and amount of diet and developing good eating habits. Patients should choose their own diet plan according to the doctor's suggestions, and follow the doctor's guidance for diet conditioning to ensure the postoperative effect and health.
