    I understand that revision surgery/procedures has a higher incidence of complications including but not limited to scarring, bleeding, infection and nerve damage.

    I understand the recovery period is longer for revision surgery/procedures than for primary surgery/procedures.

    I understand that it is impossible to get back the contour and function the way it was prior to any surgery.

    I understand that revision surgery/procedures often needs multiple stages to achieve the desired results.
