You will not surprise anyone with plastic operations: rhinoplasty, mammoplasty or liposuction have become something ordinary and granted.The Instagram models produce the breasts on the barter and their subscribers for years accumulate money to make a dream figure in a local surgeon.
But it has not always been like this.Even in the middle of the last century, the operation to increase the mammary glands was not only inaccessible to 90% of the population, but also not safe.
We talked to a plastic surgeon and discovered what has changed in plastic surgery in recent decades.
How everything started
Beautiful female breasts have always caused the joy of men and the envy of women, therefore since ancient times, the girls have been interested in the question of maintaining the shape and increasing the size of their advantages.
Several centuries ago, this was physically impossible, since surgeons did not own the methods or material necessary to increase the mammary glands.Late XIX surgeons - The first XX centuries tried to shape the chest with various injections, but this effect was short -lived.
In the 1940s of the last century, the liquid silicone began to be introduced into the chest.Of particular popularity this method was in Japanese prostitutes who wanted to attract the military who suffered care after injuries.
Beauty requires a sacrifice, and here it was not without them: some time after the operation, women started the necrosis of soft tissues and often such cases ended with the amputation of the chest or death.
The story of silicone systems precisely begins in 1962, when the mothers of six children Timmy Jin Lindsay increased the breast of one size in two hours.The operation has been successful and the woman is still alive.He is now 83 years old.
Since then, the technology of increasing the mammary glands using silicone systems has developed only.
Is silicone breast a curse?
After the procedure has become more or less available, women wanted not only to change the shape of the chest, but also increase the size.We all remember the operations without success of celebrities in the early 2000s, when the inappropriate dimensions ruined the girls' figures.
The era of the vulgar "silicone valleys" has already passed, and now women are approaching the question of breast plasticism in a more significant way.
The expression "Silicone Seni" is a very figurative opposite of the expression "natural breasts".Fortunately, the vast majority of modern patients arrives at a plastic surgeon not for the volume, but for the shape, behind the natural form of the chest.And although the material of the plants is the same silicone, the safety and quality of the latest generations of plants is incomparably higher.
According to statistics, patients from 27 to 42 years after the birth of one or more children who want to restore the shape of the chest after breastfeeding are often faced to the plastic surgeon.
The second category of patients most frequency of patients are young patients aged between 18 and 27, who are not satisfied with the original form or breast size.
As regards reconstructive operations after the amputation of the breast following oncology, in most cases the medical oncological institutions are engaged in this area.A modern approach provides for simultaneous massiltomy and breast reconstruction.That is, breast cancer does not always lead to amputation.Surgical operations to remove the breast become less, since radiotherapy works more effectively.
Is cancer because of the plants is a myth?
There is still an opinion that the plant can cause breast cancer and this fear is not without cause.The fact is that in 1992 doctors suspect that silicone causes autoimmune diseases, for example rheumatoid arthritis or breast cancer.
For this reason, in many countries a ban on such operations has been introduced for a long time.But in 2006, the moratorium was removed, since numerous studies confirmed the safety of silicone prostheses.
To date, it is believed that if the chest enlargement surgery has passed without violations, the risk of breast cancer is minimal.
In addition to oncology, many girls are afraid that the plants can deteriorate and have to replace them, but plastic surgeons say that this is another myth.
The most ridiculous and fun myth in our sector is that when they fly on a plane, the plants increase in volume and can burst.But this myth has already become a bike.Most of all girls fear the negative consequences for health, for example the impossibility of breastfeeding or the need to replace the systems after the expiry of the expiry date.But modern materials for plants are not subject to changes during life and do not need to change without special medical indications.
Where is it better to do?
Despite the fact that plastic surgery is a relatively young science, in recent decades in this direction, great success have been made.
As for mammoplasty, it has become one of the most popular plastic surgery all over the world.He acquired signs of a certain routine on the one hand, on the other, the functioning of the operation has been continually improved, new techniques, technologies and materials have appeared.
This allowed to maximize the risk of possible complications and adverse consequences, to obtain the most expected and persistent results, to develop an individual selection algorithm for each particular patient.
Currently, both abroad that we have developed all the balls of cosmetic surgery well, including mammoplasty.
The variety of interventions, new technologies, modern equipment are very represented.
And, after 5-10 years in plastic surgery, we will see even more development.
The future is already emerging here and now.Cellular technologies, fabric engineering (when tissue complexes are grown), the 3D printing of organs and fabrics is no longer fantasy, but reality.However, the main principle in medicine is "not damage".And before introducing in vast clinical practice, any new technology makes a long way.All studies and tests must meet the most important criteria: security and efficiency
