Can prosthetic breast augmentation surgery solve the problem of chest sagging?

Prosthetic augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, which is widely used to improve the shape and size of the chest. However, many people have doubts about whether prosthetic breast augmentation surgery can solve the problem of chest sagging. This article will elaborate on this issue from different angles.

Operation principle

Prosthesis breast augmentation surgery can change the shape and size of the chest by implanting silicone or saline filled prosthesis in the chest. The purpose of the operation is to make the chest more plump and even. However, for the problem of thoracic ptosis, prosthesis augmentation surgery can not really solve the root cause.

Chest droop is usually caused by age, postpartum, gravity and other factors, because of the relaxation and droop of chest tissue and skin. Prosthesis breast augmentation surgery can only fill the chest to make it fuller, which can not solve the problem of tissue relaxation. Therefore, only breast augmentation with prosthesis has limited effect on sagging chest.

Surgical indications

Prosthesis breast augmentation surgery can improve the problem of chest droop to a certain extent, but the premise is that the degree of chest droop is not serious and the skin elasticity is good. For obviously sagging chest, it is necessary to combine other surgical methods to achieve better results.

For example, for the chest with severe ptosis, joint surgery can be considered, such as the combination of mastopexy and breast augmentation with prosthesis. Breast lifting can reposition and lift the breast by removing redundant skin and tissue, and then perform breast augmentation with prosthesis to increase the fullness of the chest. Such combined operation can solve the problem of droop and lack of fullness.

Operation risks and consequences

Prosthesis breast augmentation surgery has certain risks and consequences, including surgical infection, prosthesis rupture, implant rejection, etc. For sagging chest, the surgical risk may be greater.

Before surgery, patients need to carry out detailed physical assessment and physical examination to ensure the safety and feasibility of surgery. In addition, formal and experienced plastic surgery hospitals and doctors should be selected to develop appropriate surgical programs based on the individual differences and actual conditions of patients.

Summary

In general, prosthesis augmentation surgery can not solve the root cause of chest droop, that is, tissue relaxation. For the chest with slight droop, breast augmentation with prosthesis can improve the shape to a certain extent. However, for the obviously sagging chest, it is necessary to consider combining other surgical methods, such as breast lifting, to achieve better results. Before receiving surgery, patients should fully understand the indications, risks and consequences of surgery, and select professional hospitals and doctors for surgery.
