Every surgical intervention, also plastic surgery, carries certain risks.

Each week plastic surgeons perform thousands of successful operations. However, each patient has to take into account that no treatment is completely without risk, however skilled the surgery may be performed.

The main risks of aesthetic plastic surgery operations are rejection of implants, sensory change in or around the operation site, decolourisation of the skin, tissue necrosis, asymmetry, infection, formation of bad scar tissue, and allergic reactions on the sedation.

The consequences of these complications can usually be corrected by one or more additional operations. Exceptionally, a remaining aesthetic blemish, permanent functional damage or even death may be the result.

It’s very important to be well informed before undergoing an operation. Your doctor is the best source of information and will inform you about the general risks of a certain operation, but in particular he can estimate your individual risk.

Poor general condition, smoking, obesity, certain medication or drugs (currently or in the past) and increasing age are all risk increasing factors.

Patients coming from abroad need to be aware that specialised early, medium and long-term surgical follow up may be essential in order to get the best result and maximal satisfaction.
