Getting a breast enhancement operation exposes you to risks such as breast-feeding difficulties or implant leakage. Thus, it is important to visualize these common dangers and side-effects to better equip 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 affect the breast feeding process. Before moving through the surgery, consult 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 potential danger of getting breast enhancement operation are the leaking of the breast implant materials into the surrounding breast tissue. To decrease the possibility of leaking, make sure that the implant material that will be applied is accredited by the FDA. Implants may also break or tear over time. Usually, snaps take place when there is excessive compression or trauma to the breast. It may also be due to the natural aging of the implant. Sometimes, it is mammography itself that contracts the breast implant, thereby causing it to rupture.

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

Before trying a breast enhancement surgery, it is recommended to talk about the possible side effects with your preferred qualified surgeon who has enough experience in breast enhancement. See to it that the surgeon will tell you of everything you need to know about the procedure and its side effects.
