What if the silicone gel breaks after breast augmentation?

If the silicone gel breaks after breast augmentation with too much force, you must go to the hospital in time to see a plastic surgeon to remove the surgical implant, clean and attract the ruptured liquid silicone gel.
If the silicone gel breaks after breast augmentation, the first thing to do is to go to the hospital as soon as possible for relevant examinations to clarify the specific situation, to have the surgical implant removed, to clean and attract the ruptured liquid silicone gel, and to try to take it out as completely as possible. If necessary, replace the implant with a suitable size according to the actual situation.
As the intact outer membrane of the silicone prosthesis is a very important structure, once ruptured, the gel-like prosthesis will slowly flow outward. If it is not treated in time and remains in the body for a long time it may lead to subcutaneous tissue infection, fibrous wrapping and granulation tissue proliferation.
Therefore, if the silicone gel breaks after breast augmentation with too much force, you should go to a regular institution in time to remove the ruptured implant and replace it with a new one.
