Breast Examination
Dr. Jaebeom Seo from Banobagi Plastic Surgery Clinic
Before breast surgery, such as breast augmentation, reduction surgery, or autologous fat grafting, many people are only thinking about the implant selection or the incision site, expecting what it will look like after surgery. However, some people receive unexpected results from the breast examination prior to surgery and are bewildered.
The reason is that breast tumors are quite often found during breast examinations. We don't take breast examination seriously in our stride, but if we receive the result before surgery, we may feel relieved and worried at the same time thinking that it's fortunate to find early while also worried about whether the operation will be affected.
If a breast tumor is found, it is safer and better to remove it before surgery. Also for the case of breast augmentation using implants, it has to be checked first if there’s an abnormal lesions through mammography and breast ultrasound. If something abnormal is found, performing the necessary biopsy, removal procedure, and treatment before surgery is necessary.
In the case of autologous fat grafting to the breasts, calcification of fat may happen after breast augmentation, and it is difficult to distinguish early calcification from micro-calcification which is a sign of breast cancer. For this reason, it is often used to obtain data through pre-operative examination and to differentiate it from breast cancer when calcifications are discovered. In breast reduction surgery, pre-operative ultrasound test is used to identify mammary gland tissue, fat mass, etc. to find a suitable surgical method, as well as to secure data through preoperative examination because there is a possibility of breast tissue changes and calcifications after surgery.
Even after breast plastic surgery, check-ups are essential. The reason is that it is possible to find out whether the implant is damaged, how the position of the implant is, whether capsular contracture has not occurred, and what is the cause of edema after surgery. In addition, it is necessary for checking the thickness of the film, early diagnosis of complications, and diagnosis of breast diseases and breast cancer.
Dr. Jaebeom Seo from Banobagi Plastic Surgery Clinic said “Breast examination is essential for breast health before and after breast surgery. It is recommended to undergo a breast surgery in a well-equipped clinic with examination equipment and systems, and to receive regular examinations.”
