How long does it take for Jining Affiliated Hospital to recover from breast augmentation surgery?
With the popularity of plastic surgery, more and more women choose breast augmentation surgery to improve their image. However, the recovery process after surgery is very important. So, how long will it take to recover after receiving breast augmentation surgery in Jining Affiliated Hospital? The following four aspects will be described in detail: pain relief period, activity recovery, wound healing and precautions.
Postoperative pain relief period
The postoperative pain relief period after breast augmentation surgery varies from individual to individual, usually lasting for 3-7 days. Within 1-2 days after the operation, you will feel breast pain, swelling and other discomfort, but generally not too severe. The doctor will provide the patient with pain relief drugs and adjust the drugs according to the patient's pain level. During this period, the patient needs to pay attention to rest and avoid strenuous activities to prevent the wound from splitting and increasing pain.
As time goes by, the pain and distension will gradually decrease. Patients can relieve their discomfort by massaging their breasts and wearing suitable support underwear. Generally, 1-2 weeks after the operation, the pain is significantly reduced and normal daily activities can be carried out.
Active Recovery
After breast augmentation surgery, the doctor will make a suitable recovery plan according to the individual differences of patients and the surgical situation. Generally, the patient can get out of bed the next day after surgery, but it is necessary to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting.
Within one week after the operation, the patient needs to keep a relative rest and avoid overexertion so as not to affect the recovery of the chest. From the second week, the patient can gradually increase the amount of activity and carry out moderate mild exercise, such as walking, yoga, etc. But you need to avoid strenuous exercise and high-intensity chest exercises.
Generally speaking, 4-6 weeks after surgery, patients can gradually perform normal exercise, but still need to avoid long-term, high-intensity exercise. Thoracic surgery requires a longer recovery period, and patients need to reasonably arrange exercise according to the doctor's recommendations.
Wound healing
After breast augmentation surgery, the patient's chest will have two incisions, one is the incision around the nipple, and the other is the incision at the lower edge of the breast. Wound healing is an important part of postoperative recovery.
On the 2-3 days after surgery, the patient needs to return to the hospital for dressing change. The doctor will deal with it according to the postoperative situation and provide some suggestions and guidance. During wound healing, patients need to keep the wound clean and dry to avoid touching water or overstressing. The doctor will plan the time of dressing change and reexamination for the patient according to the specific situation to ensure the smooth healing of the wound.
matters needing attention
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need to pay attention to the following matters:
1. Avoid alcohol and tobacco: Avoid alcohol and tobacco after operation to avoid affecting wound healing and recovery.
2. Sleeping position: 2-3 months after the operation, the patient needs to sleep in the back or semi sitting position to avoid breast compression.
3. Breast massage: breast massage should be carried out at proper time after operation to promote blood circulation and accelerate recovery.
4. Keep away from the sun: avoid direct sunlight within 3 months after operation to reduce the risk of pigmentation.
To sum up, the recovery needs of breast augmentation surgery in Jining Affiliated Hospital depend on individual differences and surgical conditions. Postoperative pain relief period, activity recovery, wound healing and precautions are important factors that determine the recovery time. Patients need to recover in close accordance with the doctor's guidance, reasonably arrange exercise and pay attention to personal hygiene to ensure the effect of surgery and recovery.
