Risks Associated With Breast Augmentation Merrillville IN

By Jennifer Scott


Due to the pressures upon women to keep their bodies as close to a youthful perfection as possible, many women seek surgical options to achieve this. Nature is rarely kind to women as they age, and never seems to grant them the kind of bodies they see in pop culture. In order to obtain the sort of body they believe they are expected to have, some will seek breast augmentation Merrillville IN.

It is unfortunate, but the plastic surgeons are not always 100% clear with their patients about the possible risks of certain procedures. For example, many women go under the knife not fully aware that the surgeon intends to remove the nipple as part of the surgery. The fact is, nipple removal is often necessary in order to maintain symmetry of the breasts, as well as to ensure that the nipples are located in the proper place.

Scars are a consequence that few patients fully realize the implications of. Women who are photographed or work in the adult industries wear body makeup to hide the scars, which are often unsightly and slightly raised. The reality of having their bodies altered in this way is often a far cry from the fantasy that is presented to us on our televisions and in magazines.

Women are seeking these surgical procedures at younger and younger ages it seems, and to their detriment. When a young woman receives implants, most of the breast tissue is removed in the surgery, so her ability to nurse children later in life is taken from her. Not only that, but implants tend to be heavy, and can cause a girl to have stretch marks much sooner in life, and sometimes much worse than even weight gain would have caused.

The fact is, anyone with breasts larger than a B cup are going to see some sagging as they age. The tendency of breasts to sag increases when the woman goes through pregnancy, but this is an expected result. The sagging that occurs with large implants is much more severe, and can be such that her breasts become an eyesore until she is able to get another procedure.

Infection is a problem few women realize, and even fewer understand the true implications of. Should a woman experience toxic shock with her implants, she must have them removed and wait as long as a year before she can attempt another procedure. Unfortunately, once a severe allergic reaction has occurred, there is a high likelihood that she will have the problem again.

For women who experience toxic shock with the implants, they are usually told that they will never be able to get them again. Unfortunately, in receiving the first set, most of her breast tissue has been removed. Having her breasts returned to something of a normal appearance is unlikely, and even if she does attempt implants again she will have to wait a long time for her body to heal.

Even with the risks involved, most women are pleased with the results of their surgeries. They gain a great trust in their doctors, which is good because they will most likely need a new set sometime in the future. Doing your homework and finding the surgeon with the greatest reputation in the area is a vital element for a women who is considering implants.
