Security and Risks
The decision is personal. Only you can decide whether the proposed surgery will achieve your goals and whether the complications and risks are acceptable. The surgeon is obliged to explain in detail the risks associated with the surgery. For this reason, your written authorization is necessary in the informed consent form to ensure a correct understanding of the surgery you will undergo.
Feel free to ask questions. It is natural to feel anxiety, whether due to emotion/enthusiasm about your new look or pre-operative stress.
Your partnership with the surgeon does not end when the surgery ends. The relationship must continue, even because the results of most plastic surgical procedures are permanent, but changes may occur over time. This is why regular surgery follow-up visits are so important.
The evolution of plastic surgery in recent years is undeniable. At the same time, there is a growing demand and a consequent increase in the number of surgeries. Technological advancement contributes to an increase in the options to be considered. While plastic surgery can improve aspects of the body and life, there are risks that cannot be ignored.
Make sure your expectations are realistic and do your research before opting for surgery.
