For breast augmentation, capsules play an important role in limiting the movement of the prosthesis and separating the prosthesis from the body without affecting the softness and feel of the prosthesis. Normal coating is a must!
However, if the human body reacts too much to the prosthesis, the capsule will continue to proliferate, thicken and compress the prosthesis, and the feel of the prosthesis will become worse, resulting in pain, which is capsule contracture.
Diagnostic criteria of capsule after breast augmentation with prosthesis;
Level 1: Soft breasts.
Grade II: mild sclerosis, touching the breast prosthesis, but the appearance is not obvious.
Grade ⅲ: moderate hardness, easy to touch the breast prosthesis, as can be seen from the appearance.
Grade ⅳ: severe sclerosis, pain sensitivity and distorted prosthesis.
What are the causes of capsular contracture?
Types of prostheses
It was found that the incidence of capsule contracture of rough prosthesis was significantly lower than that of smooth prosthesis, and silicone prosthesis was significantly better than normal saline breast prosthesis. According to the latest research, there is little difference in the incidence of capsule contracture between rough surface and smooth surface, so the influence is not great.
Insufficient space for waste removal
During the operation, due to anesthesia, doctor's operation, inadequate operation and other reasons, the prosthesis will fold after entering the body, and sharp corners will appear, which will stimulate local parts, cause damage to the tissues and fibers of the body, and form local thick capsules.
Postoperative hematoma
Endoscopic surgery is not used during the operation, which leads to excessive hematocele and hematoma, and the incidence of capsular contracture after operation will be greatly improved.
Doctor's skills and hospital equipment
If the trauma formed during the operation is large, no matter how good the prosthesis material is, it can not guarantee the postoperative effect, and the incidence of capsular contracture will be greatly improved. Anesthesia, disinfection of instruments and professionalism of instruments are directly related to the probability of infection during and after operation and affect the possibility of capsular contracture.
Is there any chance to repair capsular contracture?
The treatment of capsular contracture is to take out the prosthesis and remove the capsule covering the surface of the prosthesis. To completely remove the capsule at the pectoralis major level, we should pay more attention to prevention, rather than choosing to repair the capsule contracture! !
How to prevent capsular contracture?
① Try to choose high-quality materials.
The latest breast augmentation prostheses in France, such as Esia, Magic Drop, Beibu, Mantuo, etc., use multi-layer walls to ensure the safety of the prosthesis, while Esia has as many as 8 layers, which takes into account the flexibility of the prosthesis and reduces the spread of silicone prosthesis to other parts and the incidence of capsule contracture.
② Choose experienced doctors and specialized hospitals.
Intraoperative management is the most important part to prevent capsular contracture. Experienced doctors can prevent excessive trauma and hematoma. If you want less trauma, endoscopic surgery will be a good choice for breast augmentation.
③ Postoperative nursing care
The previous suture can now be bonded with soluble protein thread and medical glue, reducing the pain of suture removal.
To sum up, although breast augmentation with prosthesis cannot guarantee that 65,438+0,000% have no capsular contracture, it can prevent and reduce its occurrence probability to the greatest extent through the above precautions and correct understanding of capsular contracture.
In addition, good prosthetic materials combined with endoscopic surgery can naturally recover without postoperative massage, reducing capsular contracture caused by friction between prosthesis and tissue.
