incidents during the surgery depends on diverse
factors, like
age, general state of health, presence of chronic - degenerative
illnesses as diabetes, hypertension,
cardiac illnesses, anemia,
etc; duration of the surgery, and factors as ingestion of
medicines earlier mentioned or
nicotinism; we determine these
risks in the evaluation preoperatoaria and with the analyses and
pre-operative
studies, if we detect some anomaly that increases
these risks we will inform you, as well as the possibility of not
doing the surgery if these risks are very high.
The
most frequent complications are: Asymmetries, Haematoma, seroma,
infection, necrosis of skin, necrosis or
alterations in
sensibility in nipple, well-known scars, etc. Your surgeon will
explain to you and will clarify any doubt
with regard to these
possible complications.
The
anaesthetic complications are slightly possible in healthy
persons, the incidence of complications is minor
with the local
anesthesia that with the general anesthesia and they are in
direct relation with the time of anesthesia,
for what the risks
increase lightly if the time of surgery increases on having done
several surgeries in the same
procedure, these complications can
be from reaction anafiláctica, shock up to brain hipoxia
and death, nevertheless
the above mentioned present to themselves
with very small frequency from 1 to 2 of every 2000 surgeries of
this type.

risks that you traverse with this surgery, thanks to the
preoperative suitable evaluation, the possibility of satisfaction
is with much, bigger than the risks.
