Can general hospitals participate in breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery to improve the shape and size of women's breasts. Many people may wonder whether general hospitals can carry out breast augmentation surgery. This article will elaborate from four aspects to answer this question.

Hospital related specialized equipment and team
As a comprehensive medical institution, general hospitals usually do not have the conditions for advanced plastic surgery. Breast augmentation surgery requires professional equipment and instruments, as well as rich practical experience and professional knowledge. Some large-scale plastic surgery hospitals are usually equipped with advanced equipment and instruments, and have experienced plastic surgery doctors. These hospitals are more professional and reliable in breast augmentation surgery.
Take Peking Union Medical College Hospital for example. The hospital has advanced surgical equipment and instruments, and an experienced plastic surgery team. Through years of study and clinical practice, their doctors have the ability to carry out various plastic surgery, including breast augmentation surgery.
Hospital follow-up and guarantee
Follow up and guarantee after breast augmentation surgery is a very important link in plastic surgery. General hospitals may not be able to provide perfect postoperative tracking and security measures, while plastic surgery hospitals usually have a special postoperative follow-up team to help patients answer questions and deal with problems after surgery in a timely manner.
For example, the plastic surgery department of Shanghai Huashan Hospital has a special postoperative follow-up team, which will provide comprehensive follow-up services through telephone, WeChat or offline clinics. The patient can consult the doctor about the postoperative precautions in time to solve the postoperative doubts or discomfort at any time.
Operation safety and quality control
Breast augmentation surgery involves surgical intervention on the body. The safety and quality of surgery are the concerns of patients. General hospitals may be unable to ensure the safety and quality control of surgery due to the relatively small scale of surgery. The plastic surgery hospital usually has a perfect operation quality control mechanism, including the control of the operating room environment and the cooperation of doctors and teams during the operation. They will ensure the safety and success rate of the operation through strict operation process and quality control.
As a well-known plastic surgery hospital in China, Yimei Plastic Surgery Hospital adheres to the first principle of surgical safety and quality, and has perfect surgical quality control measures. They require doctors to strictly follow the operation specifications, pay attention to the details and safety measures during the operation, and provide high-quality breast augmentation surgery services for patients.
Summary
To sum up, whether a general hospital can participate in breast augmentation surgery mainly depends on the hospital's relevant specialized equipment and team, hospital follow-up and guarantee, surgical safety and quality control and other factors. Some plastic surgery hospitals with advanced equipment, rich practical experience and professional knowledge, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital Plastic Surgery, Shanghai Huashan Hospital Plastic Surgery, Yimei Plastic Surgery Hospital, are usually more professional and reliable in performing breast augmentation surgery. Therefore, it is recommended that patients choose a professional plastic surgery hospital for breast augmentation surgery to ensure the safety and success of the surgery.
