As with any operation, there are some risks involved.

Bleeding or infection can occur with any surgery, and often antibiotics are given to help prevent this complication.

Occasionally unfavourable healing occurs and the final result is not as good as anticipated.

It is recognised that even in the best hands there is a 5–10% rate of revision surgery, ie a further operation is required to correct residual problems.
