Who can opt for Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is an option for women with small-sized breasts, loss of breast volume due to weight loss, breastfeeding, mastectomy, or other treatments, asymmetrical and non-uniform breasts.
Importance of Choosing a Qualified Surgeon
Choosing an unqualified surgeon for breast augmentation can lead to adverse effects such as anaesthesia risks, haemorrhage, infection, and back pain. Dr. Rajat Gupta, a board-certified plastic surgeon, ensures a safe surgery with minimal scarring.
Potential Causes of Back Pain after Breast Augmentation
Back pain after breast augmentation surgery can be caused by several factors. The size and weight of the implants, poor posture due to added chest weight, nerve compression, shifting implants, scar tissue buildup (capsular contracture), and muscle-related complications from implant placement can all contribute to pain and discomfort.
Strategies to Avoid or Reduce Back Pain
- Choosing implant size proportionate to body: Avoiding overly large or heavy implants that significantly alter the balance of the torso can reduce strain on the back muscles.
- Proper implant placement: Considering prepectoral placement (over the muscle) rather than subpectoral (under the muscle) can reduce complications like dynamic distortion and associated pain.
- Addressing scar tissue early: Monitoring for capsular contracture and treating it promptly via surgical approaches such as capsulectomy or capsulotomy can reduce discomfort.
- Maintaining good posture and strengthening back muscles: Physical therapy or exercises to strengthen postural muscles may help counterbalance the additional weight.
- Regular follow-up consultations: To check for implant shifting, nerve issues, or scar tissue buildup that could require correction.
Post-Surgery Precautions
Patients may need to be conscious of their movements and positions after breast augmentation surgery to avoid muscle strain and uneasiness. Routine activities like walking, lifting, and sleeping positions may need to be controlled to avoid discomfort.
Breast Reduction for Comfort
Women with abnormally large natural breasts or implants may seek breast reduction to alleviate discomforts like pain, chest heaviness, neck pain, and back pain.
