All surgeries are associated with some risks. These relate to the potential for complications and untoward events during or after a surgical procedure. These can be thought of in 2 groups:
General Risks – Risks common to all surgeries and
Specific Risks – Those unique to a particular surgery, such as breast reduction.
General Risks include:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Scarring
- Numbness
- Swelling
- Bruising
