Breast Enhancement Side Effects
Having a breast enhancement procedure exposes you to dangers such as breast-feeding troubles or implant leakage. Thus, it is essential to know 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 result would depend upon the breast enhancement technique applied by your surgeon.
Another possible risk of taking breast enhancement operation are the leaking of the breast implant materials into the adjacent breast tissue. To lessen the probability of leaking, make sure that the implant material that will be applied is accredited by the FDA. Implants may also break or rupture over time. Usually, snaps take place when there is radical compression or trauma to the breast. It may also be due to the natural aging of the implant. Sometimes, it is mammography itself that presses the breast implant, thereby inducing it to tear.
The worst risk in breast enhancement rests in its impediment of breast cancer detection. Breast enhancement implants may cover breast tumors during mammography or ultrasound. For patients with breast enhancement, additional views and special imaging are necessary during breast examination. The “Eklund displacement views” helps maximize the visibility of the breast tissue to further detect tumors.
Before undergoing a breast enhancement surgery, it is recommended to talk about the possible side effects with your selected certified surgeon who has enough experience in breast enhancement. See to it that the surgeon will inform you of everything you need to know about the procedure and its side effects.
