The subject of complications has always been avoided, left out of discussion and skimmed over in the scientific environment, particularly in the field of aesthetic medicine.
Aesthetic medicine is a medical practice that is carried out today with the aid of products that have become more and more innovative, safer and certainly more biocompatible. Compared to earlier times, with the meagre offerings available in the 90s, today the cosmetic surgeon has a wide choice and if the correct precautions are taken can do so in complete safety. Nevertheless, despite this, the unexpected is always around the corner. This can be caused by human error or by biological reactions of the patient’s body to the product used, whether implants, electro-medical, peeling, etc.
Therefore, why not talk about this openly in the scientific community? Errors, experiences, the patient’s biological reactions, just as every event connected to clinical practice does, makes up our experience and if we sum up the experiences of each one of us and share them our growth will be exponential.
