RISKS AND RECOVERY

Every reasonable precaution and meticulous care are taken throughout your surgery and after-care to prevent complications. All surgery has risks including wound infection, bleeding and excess scar formation. Dr Moss will thoroughly explain the risks associated with every patient's procedure and written information will be provided on these.

Every individual surgeon brings their own artistic sense to each procedure. To avoid the risk of dissatisfaction it is vital that you understand and are comfortable with your chosen surgeon's aesthetic style of results. There are a number of ways that you can assess this - look at representative before and after photographs and ensure that you understand exactly what procedure you are being offered and what the expected results are.

By making the decision to consult a qualified plastic surgeon and by following all of your personal pre- and post-operative instructions you are taking important steps towards ensuring your safety and speeding your recovery. Remember that the success of your surgery is in your hands as well as your surgeon's.

When planning your return to work or social activities it is important to include the necessary recovery period. One of the main advantages of the deep support techniques used by Dr Moss is that little or no dressings or bandages are required, almost all sutures are absorbable (internal) and the recovery period is kept to an absolute minimum. As an indication, recovery is usually three to seven days for breast augmentation or liposculpture, and about two weeks for facelift surgery. Naturally every individual varies in their healing process and the degree of bruising or swelling that occurs. Easy to read notes are provided on the healing process and how you can assist your own recovery.
