According to an Australian National University study, women are at increased risk when they don't tell friends or family about their upcoming cosmetic surgery. Learn about your surgery and talk with your family doctor is the advice from the lead researcher.
She then interviewed 32 women who had such cosmetic procedures performed on them and 19 surgeons who had performed such procedures.
Dr. Parker concluded that patients often have the procedure performed in secrecy, without telling friends or family members. In addition, such female patients often times are unaware of the specific risks of the operation.
Parker states in the April 6, 2010 ABC News article Secret surgery putting women at risk: "Part of it is because many women go into cosmetic surgery in a secret way. "They don't tell friends and family. They don't share that information, so they really go in uninformed.'
She adds, "They might have looked at the web or other sources, but there isn't any comprehensive information out there which shows exactly what all of the risks of cosmetic procedures are."
Dr. Parker warns, "Cosmetic surgery needs to move from the peripheral shadows of medicine to be made accountable and to lay itself open to critical scrutiny.'
Page two discusses recommendations made by Dr. Parker BEFORE cosmetic surgery is performed.
