Are breast enhancement procedures safe?

As with any surgery, there are risks. However, there are steps you can take to help assure your safety:

Dr. Guarda will discuss the risks and answer any questions you have. Some risks might include bleeding, infection or poor healing of incisions, or changes in nipple / breast sensation. Capsular contracture (a condition that causes the naturally-forming scar tissue around a breast implant to contract), implant leakage or rupture, or wrinkling of the skin over the implant are possible risks that may require a second surgery.

Progress and healing

Initial healing may include swelling and discomfort at the incision sites and in breast tissue overall. Discomfort is common and can be controlled with medication.

You may need to wear a support bra 24-hours a day for the 1 – 2 weeks. You will need to clean your incision sites and apply ointment, as directed, and follow all instructions carefully. A day or two after surgery, you can return to light, normal activity as soon as you feel ready. 

Your wound will take 5 – 10 days for initial healing; then Dr. Guarda will remove your sutures.  You can return to work and normal activity at this time, if you are comfortable — but, no heavy lifting or vigorous exercise.

In 4 – 6 weeks, intimate contact with breasts may resume, once your healing is more fully complete. You will immediately see results of your breast augmentation. Your final results appear gradually, as swelling goes down and breast size and shape settle.

The incision lines will lighten, or fade, over the next year but are permanent, which is why Dr. Guarda places them inconspicuously.
