Plastic surgery procedures and side effects

Planning to go under the knife just to improve your looks? You may want to think twice, especially after reviewing some of the possible side effects you might experience after the Plastic surgery procedure.

Number one risk, not because of the frequency but because it is present in every operation -no matter how minor the procedure may be- is infection. Fatty tissue, just what a breast is made of, is prone to developing bacteria infection, because the bacteria feed very well from them. Since this is a very sensitive area, pain can be severe. Also other symptoms are fever, tenderness and redness in the area. It is a very dangerous side effect of Plastic surgery procedures, so you need to make a consultation with your doctor as soon as you detect any of the above mentioned signs.

Loss of sensation is another event that might happen. This condition can be temporal or permanent. It depends on the amount of nerve damage that has occurred during the operation. Also, in the field of sensation complaints, a feeling of pressure and oppression can occur. The skin and muscles have to stretch to host the new implants in the mammary gland. This complaints about sensation can disappear eventually.

Leakage of implants. This is one of the most common side effects. It may be due to trauma -for instance a sudden stop or crash in the car while wearing the belt- or because of faulty implants. It is important that this condition should be determined as soon as possible, before the silicone spreads through the blood torrent. The solution is another Plastic surgery procedure to remove every trace of silicon. Often, the bones have to be “scraped” to remove any adhered silicon.
