Plastic Surgery Study

Anyone wishing to perform any type of surgery should be aware that there are risks, yes. Plastic surgeons and anesthesiologists always discuss this theme and even request that patients read and are aware of operative risks.

Medicine is a biological science and has its limitations. Rhinoplasty has become quite common over the last decades, but nevertheless, as a surgical procedure, all operations are exposed to certain risks.

The leading allegations by patients was improper performance of surgery (49 percent of claims). The top factors resulting in injuries:

  1. Technical performance (42 percent)
  2. Patient factors (41 percent)
  3. Communication issues between the patient or family and the physician (10 percent).

The study is available at http://ift.tt/2d6pqun and at the American Society of Plastic Surgeons’ Plastic Surgery The Meeting, September 23 to 27 in Los Angeles.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • The study’s insights also highlight the important role patients play in their own care and recovery.
  • Strategy a surgeon needs to take to ensure that he or she practices in the most risk-free environment they can.
  • Both patients and physicians should work together to reduce the risk of injury

“This study is invaluable in that it spots important trends early, such as the finding involving technical errors,” said David M. Charles, MD, retired plastic and reconstructive surgeon in Denver, Colorado, and a member of The Doctors Company’s Board of Governors. “With this knowledge, plastic surgeons can work to enhance technical skills and program directors can more keenly focus on technical skills when instructing residents.”

Grafts and Implants Specifically Involved in Rhinoplasty

The immense progress of biomedical engineering, has been adding to search for the ideal graft to be used in Rhinoplasty procedures.

It should be removed easily without any morbidity, be available in sufficient amounts, show no long-term resorption, and no risk of infection.

Currently, the grafts are obtained from the person (autograft) or produced synthetically (alloplastic).

Although the use of alloplastic grafts have unlimited availability, the autograft is the graft of choice of many surgeons.

Implants typically bring balance and better proportion to the structural appearance of the face.

Facial implants are made from biocompatible material designed to improve or enhance the face physical structure. The type and the precise size of the most suitable implant for the person needs to take into consideration the goals, the characteristics they want to correct and evaluation of the surgeon.

Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Dr. Jay Dutton discuss types of grafts and implants involved in rhinoplasty, some factors to consider in selecting a graft or implant, injectables used in performing non-surgical rhinoplasty, risks and complications involved.

  • Dr.Dutton speaks about the injectables used in performing non-surgical rhinoplasty as well as the risks and complications involved in “injection rhinoplasty”.

“Dr. Jay Dutton, founder of Rhinoplasty Institute of Chicago, a plastic surgery practice in Chicago, IL, was recently interviewed by host Eric Michaels of eHealth Radio and the Plastic Surgery Information and Skin Care Channels to discuss implants and injectables in rhinoplasty.”
