Getting a breast enhancement operation exposes you to dangers such as breast-feeding difficulties or implant leakage. Thus, it is important to visualize these common risks and side-effects to better prepare you on what to do.

Quite a number of patients who have undergone breast enhancement successfully breast feed. However, there is still a possibility that it will interfere with the breast feeding process. Before moving through the surgery, confer with your surgeon about this. Sometimes, breast enhancement leads to a loss of sensation in the nipple and breast area. This loss of sensation, which results from damaged nerve endings, may be temporary or permanent. The outcome would depend upon the breast enhancement technique utilized by your surgeon.

Another possible danger of having breast enhancement procedures are the leaking of the breast implant materials into the adjacent breast tissue. To lessen the possibility of leaking, make sure that the implant material that will be applied is approved by the FDA. Implants may also break or rupture over time. Usually, snaps take place when there is radical compression or trauma to the breast. It may also be due to the natural aging of the implant. Sometimes, it is mammography itself that constricts the breast implant, thereby inducing it to rupture.

The worst risk in breast enhancement lies in its impediment of breast cancer detection. Breast enhancement implants may conceal breast tumors during mammography or ultrasound. For patients with breast enhancement, additional views and special imaging are necessary during breast examination. The “Eklund displacement views” helps maximize the visibility of the breast tissue to further detect tumors.

Before undergoing a breast enhancement surgery, it is recommended to discuss the possible fallouts with your chosen licensed surgeon who has enough experience in breast enhancement. See to it that the surgeon will inform you of everything you need to know about the procedure and its consequences.
