Breast augmentation surgery technology

Prior to surgery, the patient must undergo an initial consultation. In addition to examining a plastic surgeon, you must consult an anesthesiologist.

Breast augmentation is classified as a major surgical procedure under general anesthesia. That is why you should undergo some tests before doing breast augmentation.

This is, first of all:

  • Biochemical and general analysis of blood and urine.
  • Chest fluorography.
  • Examination by gynecologist and oncologist-mammologist.
  • Electrocardiographic studies.

Also, analysis was performed for the possibility of allergic reactions to the drugs used. If you are taking certain medications, be sure to tell your doctor about them.

Prior to surgery, the purpose of the operation is also discussed, and implants and fillers are selected.

A few weeks before surgery, patients should stop smoking and drinking alcohol. Before breast augmentation surgery, it is better to go on a low -calorie diet that helps cleanse the body.

Breast augmentation is performed based on endoprosthetics. The implant is located under the pectoralis major muscle or under the mammary gland.

At the point of access, the following methods of operation are distinguished:

  • Installation through axillary access.
  • Installation through periareolar access.
  • Installation via submarine access.

The type of access is determined by the plastic surgeon individually. In most cases, incisions are made in the areola or armpit.

Before and after breast augmentation surgery

Recovery after breast augmentation

Immediately after the operation, the patient was transferred to the ward. He was under the supervision of a doctor for 5 days. After two weeks, the doctor removed the postoperative sutures.

In the first days after surgery, hematoma formation and swelling in the suture area are possible. This problem does not require additional treatment; soon it will be resolved on its own.

After surgery, a special tightening bandage is applied to the chest. After removing the sutures, it is necessary to wear a "medical" bra, which maintains the correct shape of the breast. Such underwear needs to be worn for several months.

Pain and tenderness may arise soon after breast augmentation. Over time, all these sensations disappear.

The recovery period is not long. Within a week after surgery, you will be able to do some simple homework. You will be able to evaluate the end result in a few months. This is due to the fact that at this time the implant is rooted and new mammary glands are formed.
