Most Common Risks Associated With Having Breast Implants
For women, a high level of sex appeal correlates directly with a higher quality of life. High sex appeal means more favorable interaction with both men and women. Additionally, anyone with a high level of sex appeal (man or woman) typically has a higher level of self esteem as well and the more self esteem you have the more self confidence you have. Like it or not, a person's level of life enjoyment is directly tied to their level of self confidence.
So how does one go about improving their sex appeal? For women, it's easy: buy breast implants! Large, firm breasts are closely associated with youth and sex appeal. If you've always dreamed of having large breasts, a breast augmentation procedure can give you exactly what you've been looking for. However, that surgery doesn't come without risk!
Although breast augmentation surgery can be purchased for around five thousand dollars, any woman considering the surgery should know the risks associated with the procedure. While most of the potential risks are low risk, there are a few that can be life threatening.
The first risk relating to breast implants that we'll discuss is a condition called capsular contracture. When this occurs, the woman's body will form a hard layer of scar tissue around the implant, effectively sealing it off from coming into contact with her body. The formation of the scar tissue is a sign that the body is rejecting the implants and is the body's mechanism for protecting the body from the foreign object.
There are varying degrees of capsular contracture. A mild case can cause some discomfort to the woman but will be otherwise unnoticeable. An extreme case of capsular contracture will cause the implant to become distorted and particularly painful to the touch. The breast will look severely deformed. In extreme cases of capsular contracture, the optimal solution is to remove the implant and the scar tissue. Whether or not it's advisable to get a new implant installed is up to the professional opinion of the surgeon.
Most implants are spherically shaped. When a woman lies down, these implants flatten out like a giant M&M candy. Gravity plays a significant role in the natural look and slope of these types of implants. There are also anatomically shaped implants. These implants are pre-formed into the natural slope and shape of a real breast. Considering the two types of implants which do you think would be a cause for concern should the implant rotate within the breast pocket? A rotated spherical implant will not be noticed. However, a rotated anatomical implant will appear very unsightly. Any woman with a rotated anatomical implant will want to visit her plastic surgeon to discuss corrective options.
While rotation relates to an implant maintaining its position but rotating in place, displacement refers to when an implant actually moves out of the breast pocket. As you can imagine, when displacement occurs it doesn't matter if you have a spherical implant or an anatomically shaped implant - you will want to get it corrected as quickly as possible.
Implant ruptures used to the primary risk associated with silicone gel implants. However, newer implant designs have minimized the percentage chance a woman's implants will rupture and leak their filler into her body. If rupture is something that concerns you then it is highly recommended that you choose saline solution implants for your procedure as they pose almost zero contamination risk in the even of rupture and leakage. A ruptured silicone gel implant can become the catalyst for many life threatening situations. To learn more about health problems associated with silicone gel leakage you will need to speak directly with a licensed plastic surgeon.
Rippling is yet another potential risk associated with breast implants. When rippling occurs, the surface area of the breast implant bunches together and causes ripples to appear across the exterior shell of the implant. While the rippling itself isn't a cause for health concern, the problem is that the rippling transfers to the breast skin and creates a very unsightly, unpleasant looking skin surface.
Perhaps the most life threatening situation associated with breast augmentation surgery is a post surgery infection. An infection can lead to serious illness and even death. Your surgeon will prescribe at least one antibiotic for your recovery process. You will need to complete the prescription in order to all but eliminate the chance for an infection to occur.
The above mentioned complications are by no means a complete list of potential surgery complications. To learn more about the risks associated with breast enhancement surgery, you should speak directly with a board certified plastic surgeon.
