At Miami Aesthetic, our first priority is your safety. Every patient is carefully examined and appropriate screen tests are performed before your surgery. Operative precautions are taken before, during, and after your surgery. The recovery of each patient is carefully followed by Dr. Pazmiño and his staff. This helps our patients recover comfortably and consistently get the results they want. Although rare, post-operative complications from surgery are possible. They may include infection, capsular contracture (post-operative tightening around the implant), a change in nipple sensation, and poor healing, which may require further surgery. A rupture, or leakage, of the implant as a result of injury or the normal compression and movement of your breast is uncommon. If a saline implant ruptures, the implant will simply deflate as your body safely absorbs the salt water. If a silicone implant leaks, you will need to see Dr. Pazmiño. Regular monitoring of breast implants is recommended to ensure continuing breast and implant health.
