Usually double eyelid or
nose surgery is the first thought
when we think about cosmetic or plastic
surgery.
The most common surgery in our country would be eye and nose surgery.
However, if you have a look more into it, the situation is different in other countries.
According to ISAPS
(International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery)
released presentation this
year,
the most performed cosmetic surgery in the world in 2016 is breast
augmentation surgery,
and the second most commonly performed plastic surgery is
liposuction.
Eye and nose surgery were ranked on third and fourth.
Based on
last year’s result,
the number of worldwide surgeries taken in statistics were
1,642,971 surgeries,
which is a huge number considering the number of surgeries
not caught by statistics.
Especially, implant
removal surgery was 155,453 cases.
Implants are used for most breast
augmentation surgery except for fat grafting surgery.
Based on last year,
about
1 out of 10 people is removing implants if they have undergone breast surgery.
All revision surgery is a
burden,
especially for breast surgery that considered as a quiet painful
surgery
as a revision which is more concerning for patients.
To prevent
revision surgery, both doctors and patients should put their best effort
to achieve
the best results during the first operation.
Breast augmentation
surgery procedure is skin incising,
making space and inserting implants.
The
patient usually tells the doctor about the desired breast size.
The type of
implants (smooth or textured) and shape (round or droplet)
are often determined
by the patient, but often followed by the doctor's recommendation.
Therefore,
the doctor should be able to choose the appropriate surgical procedure
and the
optimal implant to achieve patient’s satisfaction
and satisfactory results for
the patient.
Each surgical procedure
and implant has different advantages
and disadvantages than superiority.
The
doctor should be able to recommend the patient through further examination.
The
patient needs a careful thought to think again if the doctor tells you that
the
chest volume option is too excessive or suggests a different method of surgery.
The quality of breast
surgery is gradually increasing due to
the development of implant and surgical
technique.
However, the most important thing in breast surgery is to make a
detailed plan of surgery
through sufficient conversation with the patient.
To
determine the desired size of the chest,
apply a variety of chest implant
models or simulate using a 3D scanner.
Through this process, the patient will
be able to know the volume of their desired volume.
Natural shape and feel of
breast is the most important requirement for all patients.
Other than this,
breast surgery satisfaction depends on
whether the patient can have as much volume
as they want or not.
Also, before surgery,
doctor should check a lot of things and conditions of the patient.
▲ whether they
are right or left-handed▲ whether they have exercise hobbies
▲ whether they use
a lot of activities with arm professionally
▲ frequently asking whether or not
to have a child.
This is a question to inform the patient about the degree of
pain
and the period of care after operation.
▲ whether there
was a significant change of the breast size
▲ whether it is losing or gaining
fat condition than usual
▲ whether the breast size changes a lot depending on
the menstrual cycle
helps when setting the breast volume.
Of course, family
history of breast cancer, previous breast cancer screening problems,
and
experience with mammotome are basic checks for breast health.
The examination of the
skin, fat, mammary gland and breast muscles is essential.
The position, size,
shape and symmetry of the nipple and areola are important
to know the type and
size of the implants incision, surgical procedure, and body type.
It’s the patients who want
to undergo breast surgery,
but the existence of additional breast
(one more
pair of secondary breast on the side of the armpit)
and additional nipple
(warts similar to the nipple on the side of the belly or armpit),
obesity of
the upper body, hip ratio needs to be checked
so they can have a natural body
line.
After detailed surgical
planning through detailed medical examination,
you should prepare for surgery.
Check if there will be any bruising problem,
and see if there are any medicines
that you are eating,
and you should stop taking medicines that can affect your
blood clotting.
The date of surgery should be kept safe after menstruation,
so
adequate recovery time can be ensured after the surgery.
Before the surgery, x-rays,
ultrasound and other blood tests
that are necessary for general anesthesia are
essential.
On breast surgery,
both surgeon
and patient need to be careful enough to achieve satisfactory results.
A high
possibility of good result can likely happen when
a doctor who takes care of
their patient well meet a patient who is well prepared
and follow the
instructions carefully.
Surgery is a harmony that both parties make together.
