Can breast augmentation wrinkles be corrected?
Breast augmentation refers to improving the size and shape of the breasts through implantation of prosthetics or autologous fat transplantation. The general reference price for breast augmentation ranges from 12,000 to 200,000 yuan per session, and noticeable improvement can usually be observed within 15-40 days. Wrinkles or folds after breast augmentation generally can be addressed through self-recovery, cold compresses, massage, elastic compression bands, laser therapy, and other methods. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital and perform these procedures under the guidance of a qualified physician. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Self-recovery: If wrinkles appear after breast augmentation and the symptoms are mild without other discomfort, the skin tissue may gradually adapt and recover on its own over time. This usually requires a certain period, during which patients should maintain healthy lifestyle and dietary habits and avoid strenuous exercise that may interfere with recovery.
2. Cold compress: In the early postoperative stage, cold compresses can help alleviate swelling and pain and reduce inflammatory responses after tissue injury. Cold compresses may help lower the risk of noticeable wrinkles. When applying a cold compress, use a clean towel to wrap the ice pack and avoid direct skin contact to prevent frostbite.
3. Massage: Appropriate massage can promote blood circulation and help the skin and tissues better adapt to the new shape, thus helping to reduce wrinkles. However, massage should be performed under the guidance of a physician to avoid excessive or improper techniques that may cause injury.
4. Elastic compression band: Wearing an elastic compression band can provide uniform pressure support to breast tissue, preventing uneven fat distribution caused by gravitational displacement and thus helping to prevent and alleviate wrinkles. When using a compression band, adjust the tightness according to the physician's advice and follow the correct wearing method.
5. Laser therapy: Low-energy laser can penetrate deep into the tissue, promoting microcirculation, suppressing inflammatory responses, and stimulating collagen regeneration, thereby softening and smoothing the unevenness caused by breast augmentation. The general reference price for laser therapy is 2,000-5,000 yuan per session, and noticeable improvement can usually be observed within 7-15 days. However, sun protection should also be practiced to prevent pigmentation.
After breast augmentation, avoid strenuous exercise to prevent interference with wound healing and restoration of breast shape, and avoid prolonged pressure on the chest to reduce discomfort.
