Breast augmentation surgery is a kind of surgery to enlarge the chest by implanting prosthesis or autologous tissue, which is chosen by more and more women. The steps of breast augmentation surgery in plastic surgery hospital will be introduced in detail below.
Preoperative preparation
Before breast augmentation surgery, the doctor will arrange a detailed preoperative consultation. During the consultation, the doctor will carefully understand the patient's expectations and goals, and assess the patient's physical condition. The doctor will also inform the patient of the risks and possible complications of the operation.
In the preoperative preparation stage, patients need to carry out a series of examinations, including blood tests, electrocardiogram, breast color ultrasound, etc. If the patient has other potential health problems, the doctor may request further examination.
In addition, preoperative preparation also includes a detailed discussion between the patient and the doctor to determine the type, shape and size of implants suitable for the patient, and to select the surgical method.
Operation process
Breast augmentation surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. The operation process can be roughly divided into the following steps:
1. Incision selection: The doctor will select the appropriate incision position according to the patient's body shape and the expected effect after the operation. The common incision positions are around the areola, armpit, cleavage, and umbilicus.
2. Placement of implants: doctors will place implants (such as silicone prosthesis) under the breast or under the muscles behind the breast through an incision. The placement position and method will be determined according to the actual situation of the patient and the desired effect.
3. Closure of incision: After the implant is placed, the doctor will carefully close the incision and fix it with suture or tape.
Postoperative care
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need some postoperative care. Here are some common nursing measures:
1. Wear a proper bra: The doctor will recommend the patient to wear a special supportive bra to help the chest recover and stabilize the prosthesis.
2. Regular revisit: The patient needs to revisit regularly to ensure the normal condition of the implant, and find and deal with any complications in time.
3. Pay attention to postoperative diet: within a few days after surgery, patients need to avoid taking irritating food and drinks to avoid affecting wound healing.
In addition, patients need to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting after surgery to reduce the pressure on the surgical site and affect wound healing.
