Patients usually ask me if mammograms can be performed after breast augmentation surgery. That’s why I decided to write about this to help clear the doubts of those who want to perform this type of procedures.

Mammography is an important test that should be done periodically for women. Through these checkups you can detect breast cancer in its early stages. This is why it’s so important the mammogram is well performed.

The procedures are usually similar for patients with implants and for those who do not have implants, but it is very important that the specialist who will perform the test be informed about the existence of the prosthesis, as it should be more thorough in the taking of the images, during the study.

That is, while a mammogram in women without breast implants require the taking of four images, in cases where there are implants it is necessary to practice double, which can be more uncomfortable. Especially because in patients with implants it is necessary for the doctor to perform a displacement of the prosthesis to achieve a better visualization of the state of the breasts.

Difficulty may also occur if any keloid scar is developed after augmentation surgery.
In spite of all this, it is proven that prostheses do not interfere with the effectiveness of breast examination.

After breast surgery, it´s recommendable that the patient wear a suitable bra that allows comfortable recovery days.
The most advisable period of time for the use of this element is one month, even at bedtime. After that month the patient can sleep without a bra, obviously, depending on the indications according to each case.

The bra, in addition to its natural function of supporting the breasts, makes a slight pressure that helps to diminish the swelling of the chest.

Here I share a few general suggestions on what to take into account when buying a support bra for the postoperative breast surgery.

They should be comfortable to avoid discomfort in the intervened area, as this is very sensitive; That does not have hoops to avoid the pressure on the new furrow submamario, that is in the process of cicatrization. You should also protect your chest from excessive movement.

It's advisable that they have no seams and that, in addition, has adjustable adjustable straps and elastic cups so that the patient can adapt it better to their figure.

Remember that these suggestions are general and could vary depending on the process and the patient. Always follow the doctor's recommendations.

The skin is the most extensive organ of our body and acts as a protective barrier against the aggressions of the environment. And like any organ we must keep it healthy. When we perform a cosmetic surgery, it is easier to have adequate healing if we have healthy skin. For this reason I give some advice on how to take care of our skin.

It is essential to have the habit of drinking water and in this way keep the skin hydrated. This reduces lines of expression and wrinkles. It also helps the body get rid of toxins. Nuts are a great source of vitamin E, like broccoli. They also contain omega 3 acids, which help to moisturize and soften the texture of the skin, as well as protect the skin from chemicals and other toxins.

On the other hand, broccoli is a food rich in antioxidants. Among its properties are those of producing collagen, giving the skin flexibility and a healthy appearance. Helps defend the skin from UVA rays.

Another healthy habit to care for the skin can be to consume whole grains that contain one of the most beneficial antioxidants for our skin: selenium. Whole grains are healthier than refined flours.

Citrus fruits are foods rich in Vitamin C, and therefore carry a very high amount of antioxidants that give elasticity and firmness to the skin. Carrots, meanwhile, contain a lot of Vitamin A, which helps prevent wrinkles and spots on the skin.

At the moment of thinking about performing a cosmetic surgery on peoples mind comes an endless number of doubts and questions about that procedure. Usually you look for opinions of acquaintances or relatives who can throw misconceptions and raise doubts.

For this reason it is necessary to consult a doctor expert in the subject and to clear all the doubts. This time I will clear some doubts about one of the most common procedures: liposuction, a surgical technique used to extract localized fat from under the skin, using a cannula and a suction instrument.

One of the main myths is that liposuction is a way to lose weight, but this is an incorrect statement. In fact, if the patient is very overweight, he or she are advised to lower it before doing the liposuction

There are also doubts as to whether the results of liposuction are permanent. It is likely that the patient will gain weight if he does not care for food, but in this case it will be with a more uniform increase.

After a procedure, it is more difficult to find a solution in the sectors where the procedure is performed, It is imsible that this is the case. So the results can be permanent if the patient takes care of their diet and exercise. And, of course, liposuction does not replace diet and exercise. This is why the patient must be disciplined and maintains a health life style of any person who wishes to stay in shape.

Likewise, the question arises about the possibility of making cellulite disappear through this procedure. And I must clarify that liposuction can improve the appearance of the area, but it does not disappear it 100 %.

If you are thinking about doing an aesthetic procedure, whatever it is, it is advisable to get rid of doubts by consulting professionals.
