Having a breast enhancement procedure exposes you to dangers such as breast-feeding troubles or implant leakage. Thus, it is essential to visualize these common risks and side-effects to better prepare you on what to do.
Quite a number of patients who have tried breast enhancement successfully breast feed. However, there is still a possibility that it will affect the breast feeding process. Before going through the surgery, consult your surgeon about this. Sometimes, breast enhancement results to a loss of sensation in the nipple and breast area. This loss of sensation, which results from broken nerve endings, may be temporary or permanent. The outcome would be based on the breast enhancement technique practiced by your surgeon.
Another potential danger of having breast enhancement operation are the leaking of the breast implant materials into the surrounding breast tissue. To lessen the possibility of leaking, make sure that the implant material that will be applied is accredited by the FDA. Implants may also burst or tear over time. Normally, ruptures occur when there is excessive compression or injury to the breast. It may also be because of the natural aging of the implant. Sometimes, it is mammography itself that constricts the breast implant, thereby inducing it to rupture.
The worst risk in breast enhancement rests in its inference of breast cancer detection. Breast enhancement implants may hide breast tumors during mammography or ultrasound. For patients with breast enhancement, additional views and special imaging are required during breast examination. The “Eklund displacement views” helps maximize the visibility of the breast tissue to better detect tumors.
Before trying a breast enhancement surgery, it is recommended to talk about the possible fallouts with your selected qualified surgeon who has right experience in breast enhancement. Ensure that the surgeon will tell you of everything you need to know about the procedure and its fall-out.
