Plastic Surgery Complications

Plastic surgery nightmares are always a possibility, even thought there are over 10 million people undergoing some sort of cosmetic facelift procedure, the rate of problems and complications are pretty low. However, its still important that you understand all the risks before going under the knife.

All common plastic surgery techniques involve the use of anesthesia which is where most people may have some type of reaction with. These reactions can include stroke, brain damage, heart attack, blood clots and abnormal heart rate.

If you have any heart or lung problems you have a greater risk of complications from the anesthesia. Therefore you should discuss all of your medical conditions with your plastic surgeon a head of time and inform him/her of any medication you are taking. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) says that even though there are some complications with anesthesia, the mortality rate is less than one half of one percent
