Risk and side effects of fat augmentation surgery

A public 3A hospital in Nanjing, as a professional plastic surgery hospital, has accumulated rich experience and technology in fat breast augmentation surgery, and pays attention to safety and effect in surgery. However, fat augmentation surgery still has some risks and side effects, and patients need to fully understand these problems before deciding to perform surgery.

1. Operation risk

As a surgical operation, fat augmentation surgery itself has certain risks. First, the risk of infection may occur during the operation. Although the hospital has taken a series of disinfection and protective measures during the operation, the possibility of infection cannot be completely avoided. Secondly, surgery may lead to bleeding, especially for those tissues close to the blood vessels, the risk of bleeding is high. In addition, the surrounding tissues and nerves may be damaged during the operation, which may lead to loss of sensation or other discomfort in the breast.

In addition, chest asymmetry may occur after surgery. Due to the operation technology and accuracy in the process of fat absorption and transplantation, it may lead to fat redistribution at different levels, making the size or shape of breasts on both sides inconsistent. Although the hospital will try its best to avoid this situation, patients need to be prepared for it.

In the recovery stage after surgery, there are also some potential risks. For example, discomfort such as ecchymosis, swelling and pain may occur after surgery, and these symptoms usually subside within a few days. In addition, scar may appear at the surgical site. Although the hospital will take some measures to reduce the impact of scar, the patient's own healing ability will also affect the formation of scar.

2. Postoperative complications

After fat augmentation surgery, patients may have some complications. The cyst caused by poor adipocyte implantation is common. During fat transplantation, due to the low survival rate of fat cells, some cells may die and form cysts. These cysts may cause tenderness, swelling and discomfort in the breast and require further treatment.

In addition, fat mass or fat mass may also be formed after surgery. This is because fat cells gather together after transplantation and form one or more lumps. Fat lumps may not only cause unsatisfactory breast shape, but also affect the touch of the breast.

In addition, some patients may have uneven absorption of transplanted fat. Due to individual differences, surgical procedures and other reasons, some of the transplanted fat may be absorbed by the body, resulting in less than expected breast enlargement. Although hospitals try to reduce the absorption rate, it is still difficult to completely avoid absorption.

3. Postoperative care and precautions

Nursing care and precautions after fat augmentation surgery are very important for the effect of surgery and healing. Patients need to follow the doctor's advice, try to reduce breast movement and extrusion, and keep a proper sleeping position to avoid compression of the postoperative breast. In addition, patients need to pay attention to cleaning the breast after surgery to avoid infection.

Regular follow-up visits are also needed after the operation. The doctor will observe the breast recovery, cysts or cellulite, and make further adjustments and treatment according to the recovery of the patient. If there are abnormal symptoms after operation, seek medical advice in time.
