When people talk about bad plastic surgery then they usually have seen a picture of a celebrity who has had so many cosmetic surgery procedures that he or she looks totally unnatural already.
Another example of bad plastic surgery can happen when something goes wrong during the surgery. There are always risks and complications with any surgery and nobody, even the most experienced surgeon, is immune against failure. Sometimes things go wrong, even if everything was taken in consideration and the preparation was perfect. Talk about bad luck.
Cosmetic surgery can’t solve all problems. Sometimes people expect too much and urge the surgeon to do things that are near to impossible to do. Finally though, it is on the surgeon to decide what is possible and not. If a young woman wants huge breast implants he could send her away but the truth is, that the woman will most likely find a surgeon who will do the surgery. It is the same with a woman who is asking for her fifth face lift. There is no way this looks natural but one will do it.
If people can easily see that someone had a cosmetic surgery then it is bad plastic surgery, no matter how well the surgery was done from a medical point of view. If the surgery looks unnatural then it was a failure. The goal of an aesthetic improvement of the look was missed.
A good plastic surgeon must also be an artist. He must take the personality and character of the patient into consideration. The overall appearance must fit. The results of the cosmetic surgery must perfectly integrate. If the surgeon just focuses on the surgery and not how the results blend with the rest of the body then he is flying blind and the results could be called bad plastic surgery.
The media is full of pictures of failed cosmetic surgeries. Often the results are irreversible. Maybe the surgeon just had a bad day, maybe unexpected side effects ruined a good work. Fact is that you probably risk a lot when you try to save a few Dollars by choosing a cheap surgeon.
Let’s talk about complications. There are various things that can happen like, nerve damage, paralysis or blood clots for example. This can happen in every surgery but a nerve damage during a face lift could have dramatic consequences.
An infection is another big risk in any surgery. An infection can ruin the best plastic surgery. The more blood you lose the bigger the risk. A traditional extensive liposuction where you could loose a lot of blood has this risk.
Every surgery leaves a scar or other skin damages. If the skin does not recover for whatever reason then it is a serious problem. A surgery can lead to skin death, numbness, dimples or a loss of sensation, things that sometimes never go away again.
You must be aware that many of the side effects will never go away. You pay a high price when you don’t do your homework. The best way to reduce the risk factors by choosing an excellent surgeon who has specialized in the cosmetic surgery you are looking for. The second risk factor is the patient itself. Make sure you life healthy. Smoking or a high fat diet can increase the risk of complications.
