Complications are possible with any surgical intervention. But why do patients treat plastic surgeries so lightly? What happens if you don’t follow the doctor’s instructions?

Plastic surgeon Alexey Vilchevsky said that complications after surgeries are rare. Common complications include bleeding, suppuration, and poor healing.

In medicine, everything is possible, and even the rarest complications are easy to encounter. There are few reasons, only three: those that depend on the surgeon, the patient, and the stars.

Surgeons do not reinvent the wheel, so all actions have long been established and worked out. But patients are brave.

The day after breast augmentation surgery, one patient went on a three-hour shopping spree at a mall. This behavior increases the chances of complications.

Stress and weight loss affect the body's healing. In an ideal scenario, the patient should lie down, eat, and watch TV series after surgery.

Individual characteristics and physiology can also unpredictably give complications - no one can predict them, so surgery is always a risk! The good news is that such cases are very rare.
