There are many possible complications that can occur during any surgery. In case of breast augmentation there is no exception to this rule. You should know what could happen when it comes to any type of surgery, but you should also know about some possible after-surgery complications.
After your surgery you should check for any post-opt bleeding, filling with fluid, or any typical signs of infection. Later complications can also be a threat. They include problems like breast pain, nipple sensitivity, and even interference with breast feeding.
Feelings in the breast and nipple can change after the implant surgery has been completed. These changes may include increased sensitivity, chronic pain and lack of feeling in the breast or nipple for several months or even years following the implant surgery. After a few years, 2-8% of breast augmentation patients end up having chronic breast pain.
Another 1-2% report breast sensitivity changes, and 3-10% experience nipple complications like losing sensations within that area. Keep in mind that these statistics are the same for both silicone gel implants and the saline implants.
There are no long term data that indicates any complications after five years when it comes to women who have saline implants. You should know that the complications can end up having effects on your sensitivity and can be temporary or permanent. It may also have an affect on sexual response and the ability to breast-feed a baby.
You should be aware of possible breast augmentation complications, and you should also know about all the steps and decisions that are needed in order to have a satisfying breast augmentation.
