When you look into breast augmentation surgery in Gangnam,

at some point you may find yourself thinking this.

The more you search, the less certain you become

about what criteria you should set.

You may have experienced how difficult it becomes to decide,

with so many reviews, so many clinics, and each one

emphasizing different points.

Then, naturally,

these concerns begin to follow.

What if capsular contracture develops after surgery?

What if the results are not as natural as I expected?

How exactly should I choose a clinic?

So in this article, before deciding on surgery,

I would like to honestly talk about two things

that you must check.

The criteria that once felt vague

will become much clearer.

If capsular contracture feels vaguely frightening,

first you need to understand the principle behind it.

When searching for breast augmentation reviews, you may have

come across the term capsular contracture at least once.

You may have read things like the breast becoming hard,

the shape changing,

or in severe cases, needing revision surgery.

After encountering such cases, many people find this

even more frightening than the surgery itself.

Capsular contracture occurs when the fibrous capsule

that the body creates around the implant

becomes abnormally thick and contracts.

When a foreign object enters the body, the body’s normal

immune response is to surround it with a membrane,

but in some cases this membrane forms excessively.

There is a reason this membrane becomes excessively thick.

The greater the tissue damage during surgery,

the stronger the inflammatory response,

and that inflammatory response creates an environment

that thickens the fibrous capsule.

In other words, capsular contracture is not simply a matter of luck.

How precisely unnecessary tissue damage and bleeding

are controlled during surgery is directly linked

to preventing capsular contracture.

Many doctors, when they first study this principle properly,

find that it stays in their mind for quite a long time.

They often realize that not only surgical technique,

but also the way tissue is handled during surgery,

determines the outcome.

That is why, during consultations, we always bring up

capsular contracture first.

We believe that understanding why it happens

is far more important than simply fearing it.

We also recommend that when you receive a consultation,

you ask directly how capsular contracture is prevented.

Selection criteria for a clinic

appear in preoperative testing and anesthesia.

So how can you tell whether a clinic really pays attention

to preventing capsular contracture?

We recommend looking at the preoperative examination process.

Because breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia,

basic tests such as blood tests, chest X-rays,

and an electrocardiogram must be completed before surgery.

These tests are not merely paperwork.

They are part of confirming whether it is safe

to proceed with anesthesia.

If there are abnormalities in blood clotting function

or cardiopulmonary status,

unexpected situations may arise during the procedure,

so going through this step carefully is

the starting point of safety.

However, surprisingly few people ask how far

this testing process is carried out.

The same applies to general anesthesia management.

Breast augmentation surgery requires maintaining

a state of anesthesia for about 1 hour and 30 minutes

to 2 hours,

and it is important that dedicated anesthesia staff

are present and continuously monitor vital signs

during this process.

If anesthesia management is not handled properly,

problems can arise during recovery,

regardless of the surgical result.

This is why anesthesia management,

just like surgical technique, is a key factor

in ensuring a safe procedure.

We also carry out thorough preoperative testing

and continuously check vital signs

while under anesthesia.

It may seem like something obvious,

but we believe that safety is ultimately determined

by how carefully these obvious steps are followed.

We are not saying this so that you must come to us.

When looking for a clinic,

we recommend asking directly what tests are done

before surgery and how anesthesia is managed.

The process of deciding on breast augmentation surgery

is just as important as the surgery itself.

Understanding why capsular contracture occurs

and what to check before surgery

can already improve the quality of your choice.

If you have read this article, you are already halfway prepared.

The remaining half is filled by speaking directly

and sharing your questions.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

For your convenience, both KakaoTalk and phone consultations are available.

※ All surgeries may involve side effects such as

capsular contracture and infection, so caution is necessary.
