Should I massage after breast augmentation?

Recently, Nam An Cosmetic Hospital cooperated with Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine and Sebbin Vietnam to organize a continuing medical education (CME) program with the topic "Updating knowledge of cosmetic surgery for breast augmentation with implants".

The program had the participation of Associate Professor, Doctor, Doctor Pham Hieu Liem, Head of the Department of Cosmetic Surgery, Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine; Doctor, Doctor of Medicine Do Quang Khai, Professional Director of Nam An Cosmetic Hospital; Master, Doctor Nguyen Tan Bao An, lecturer of the Department of Cosmetic Surgery, University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Ho Chi Minh City, along with many doctors and experts in the field of cosmetic surgery.

The program not only provides in-depth knowledge of breast augmentation techniques with implants but also updates the latest trends in the cosmetic surgery industry.

At the program, in response to the question "Does breast implant cause cancer?", Dr. Do Quang Khai said that statistically, breast implant does not cause cancer. Breast implant is completely safe. As in Vietnam, customers need to choose implant brands licensed by the Ministry of Health and choose surgeons with full certificates of practice in cosmetic surgery, in addition, the place of operation must be a specialized cosmetic hospital or a hospital with a cosmetic surgery department.

According to Dr. Do Quang Khai, the surgery time for breast implant placement is only about 30-45 minutes, customers can go home the same day after 2 to 4 hours, so the risk of internal bleeding has been studied to be minimized, thereby also limiting the rate of capsular contracture of the bag. We should not massage after breast augmentation, the bag will be placed for about 3-6 months, the fibrous tissue will soften, at this time the breast will be naturally soft.
