Breast Augmentation Risks – Dr. Robert Zubowski

Breast augmentation is a plastic surgery procedure that ranks very high in terms of patient satisfaction. This is because breast augmentation often delivers not only a remarkable improvement in the patient’s appearance, but it also leads to an enhanced self-esteem. Over the course of his distinguished career, Dr. Robert Zubowski has performed numerous breast augmentation procedures that have helped his NJ breast implants patients achieve voluptuous, proportionate bustlines.

While Dr. Zubowski boasts an excellent safety record, breast augmentation (like all surgical procedures) is associated with certain risks. Read on to learn more about breast augmentation side effects and what safety precautions Dr. Zubowski takes to minimize these risks.

Breast Augmentation Risks: Overview

In order to maximize patient safety, Dr. Zubowski performs breast augmentation only at accredited surgical facilities. His on-site surgical suite has been thoroughly inspected and approved by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities (AAAASF). In order to maintain this accreditation, Dr. Zubowski and his surgical team adhere to the strictest sanitation and safety standards and use some of the latest surgical equipment available. To further promote patient safety, Dr. Zubowski works only with reputable, experienced anesthesiologists trained at diagnosing and addressing any anesthesia complications.

Breast Augmentation: Complications

Just like with any surgical procedure, even the strictest safety measures cannot completely eliminate all of breast surgery risks. Some of the complications that might occur during or after breast augmentation surgery include:

• Excessive Bleeding. Excessive bleeding during surgery or afterwards might prolong the recovery and lead to extensive bruising. In order to reduce the risk of excessive bleeding, Dr. Zubowski performs a thorough health history evaluation during pre-surgical consultations, and carefully monitors the patient during and after surgery.
• Infection. Infection of the surgical site might require treatment with antibiotics and, in exceptional cases, the removal of the implants. Once the infection is gone, the implants can usually be replaced.
• Capsular Contracture. This condition occurs when an excessive amount of scar tissue forms around the breast implants. As a result, the breast become hard and might feel uncomfortable. The removal of the excess scar tissue often requires a follow-up breast surgery. In order to minimize the risk of capsular contracture, Dr. Zubowski carefully evaluates each patient’s health history and natural breast tissues. He recommends textured implants for those who might be at a higher risk for implant hardening.
• Bottoming Out. This condition occurs when the implant slides down in the breast, creating changes in the breast shape and causing the nipple to point upward. While rare, this condition can be corrected through a revision breast surgery.
• Breast Asymmetry. This condition occurs when one breast appears larger than the other or one implant sits higher than the other. In order to prevent breast asymmetry, Dr. Zubowski spends a considerable amount of time planning each breast augmentation procedure and customizes each surgery to reflect the unique anatomy of each patient.
