Risk of bone grinding surgery in Shanghai Ruijin Temple of Heaven Puhua Hospital
Bone grinding surgery is a plastic surgery that changes the appearance of the face by cutting or removing some bones. Although Shanghai Ruijin Temple of Heaven Puhua Hospital is a very professional medical institution, there are certain risks in any surgery, including bone grinding surgery. Before undergoing bone grinding surgery, patients need to fully understand the possible risks so that they can make wise decisions. The following are the possible risks of bone grinding surgery in Shanghai Ruijin Temple of Heaven Puhua Hospital.
1. Anesthesia risk
General anesthesia or local anesthesia is required during the operation. Although anesthesia technology has been very mature, there are still some risks. Patients who do not adapt to anesthesia may have serious complications such as allergic reaction, dyspnea or cardiac arrest. Therefore, before surgery, the doctor will evaluate the patient's physical condition to ensure that the patient can safely receive anesthesia.
In addition, the anesthesia process may also lead to some common transient complications such as hypotension, arrhythmia, nausea and vomiting. These complications usually relieve themselves after the operation, but they still need to be noticed by patients.
2. Bleeding and infection
During the bone grinding operation, the blood vessels around the facial bones may be damaged, leading to bleeding. Severe bleeding may require additional surgical intervention or blood transfusion. In addition, bacteria may be introduced to cause infection during surgical incision and bone cutting. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor's advice after the operation, keep the wound clean, and take anti-inflammatory drugs on time.
If the bleeding is excessive or the infection is serious, the patient may need further treatment, such as secondary surgery or antibiotic treatment. Therefore, postoperative care is very critical. Patients need to pay close attention to the wound and consult doctors in time.
3. Nerve injury
The bone grinding operation needs to remove some bones. If the bones are cut improperly during the operation, facial nerve damage may result. Nerve injury may lead to sensory decline, facial muscle dysfunction and even facial paralysis. In addition, other important structures, such as the orbit, nasal cavity or oral cavity, may be damaged during the operation, resulting in abnormalities of related functions.
In order to avoid nerve injury as far as possible, doctors will make accurate surgical planning according to the patient's facial structure and operate carefully during the operation. Patients need to pay close attention to the changes of facial sensation and function after surgery, and report abnormalities to the doctor in time.
4. Unsatisfactory effect
The result of bone grinding surgery may not be as ideal as the patient expected, because everyone's facial bone structure and skin elasticity are different. Patients need to treat the surgical effect rationally, and fully communicate with doctors to ensure that both parties have a clear understanding of the surgical objectives.
If the patient is not satisfied with the effect of the operation, the doctor may recommend a second operation or other repair measures. However, it should be noted that the second operation will increase the operation risk, and the recovery and repair process may take longer.
Summary
Shanghai Ruijin Temple of Heaven Puhua Hospital is a professional medical institution for bone grinding surgery, but any surgery has certain risks. The risks of bone grinding surgery include anesthesia risk, bleeding and infection, nerve injury, and unsatisfactory results. Patients should fully understand these risks before undergoing surgery, and fully communicate and discuss with doctors so that they can make wise decisions.
