          Dr. Hughes performs mainly revisions of plastic surgery attempts by other plastic surgeons from around the world.   Revisions are much harder surgeries than the first or primary surgeries as there are a much greater number of considerations and much more difficult tissue base including scarring, dents, divots, poor quality scars, uneven tension and contours, and irregular scar patterns.

          The revision surgeon must navigate through sometimes calcific or incredibly scarred tissue just to be able to begin to correct the issues with the first surgery.  Many patients think that the saw physical laws or primary surgery apply to revision surgery.  This is simply not the case.  The scarred areas also prohibit the skin from stretching or filling.  Thus, a plastic surgeon can add as much fat as possible to a dented area, but a scarred area is not going to expend like an unscarred area.

           There are thousands of other considerations as well.  Patients who have had multiple surgeries, particularly surgeries which penetrate the abdominal wall are at much higher risk for hernias.  These hernias are not always evident despite appropriate physical exam or imaging.  Some of these holes may be less than a 1cm and have no intraabdominal contents, making it virtually impossible to identify or diagnose.  In fact, liposuction is a blind procedure, which relies upon an intact abdominal wall.  A small hernia that cannot be identified has the potential to create a pathway for a cannula that can lead to intraabdominal injury.  Thus the risk for these procedures is not zero, no matter how skilled the practitioner.
