How Safe Is Plastic Surgery? Risks, Dangers, Complications of Cosmetic Surgery

Plastic surgery is a cosmetic surgery performed to improve one's body structure or looks. Millions of people undergo plastic surgery these days. There are plastic surgery procedures for all parts of the body. It has become quite a common procedure.

Plastic surgery is relatively safe in good hands. Any surgery carries some risks. Cosmetic surgery has made many advances in the past few years and these have made it a safe method of medical self-improvement. The main criterion is the surgeon chosen. Research has to be gone to find out a good and reliable surgeon to perform the procedure. A surgeon might have the best possible degree, but unless he has good experience, Board certification and good recommendations from his earlier patients, one should not continue. If one is satisfied and has enough confidence in the surgeon, then one can go ahead with plastic surgery as he is now in good and reliable hands.

No one has ever died of plastic surgery. There are no recorded deaths after such a procedure. Plastic surgery is not a life threatening procedure unlike a by pass surgery or a cancer surgery. However if care is not taken there are chances of infection. With adequate care and proper medication, plastic surgery is a safe bet. Cosmetic surgical procedures begin with incisions by the surgeon. After the operation, whether it is an implant, a liposuction, a lift, or corrective one, the patient has to take care that the sutures are not disturbed or harmed. If there is any itchiness, the patient should overcome the feeling. If sutures are stretched or if pressure is applied on the wound, chances of the sutures tearing are high. By taking care that such things do not happen, the surgery becomes safe.

There are those who are allergic to some medicines or to some forms of anesthesia. They should inform the doctor about their problems and their allergies. In plastic surgeries like implants, there are chances of the implants shifting or bursting. However these days the silicone gel used in implants is so smooth and so well studied that even such fears are unfounded. Some patients do not heal properly after surgeries.

Some surgeries do not give a proper final result. In such cases another surgery may have to be performed to correct the earlier ones. Some scars become prominent or do not fade. For such cases also there are remedies. Each case is different but by and large most patients are happy and satisfied with the plastic surgeries that they undergo and there are not too many complaints.
