The radiologist specifically mentioned chronic osteomyelitis and foreign body reactions from implants slowly breaking down. I know from personal experience about nerve problems. I developed allodynia in my left calf from a varicocele repair, as strange as that sounds, and I'm suspicious about some auto-antibodies that appeared shortly later too (fortunately, they went away). I've heard of a few cases of people losing sense of taste from jaw surgery. Twitching muscles happens sometimes, I have that anyway. Loss of sensation is common as we know but mostly people tolerate that well. We've seen cases of nerve compression here. Migration, relapse, asymmetry, fibrous unions, resorption, scar tissue, necrosis, lip incompetence, joint damage, and infection are other possibilities. "Resorption" sounds like code for "it disappears but who knows where to". That's what we can anticipate. I could come up with another dozen probably but then I'd be catastrophizing
I'll probably edit this later as it's not good to scare other people with far fetched scenarios (where's my erase button?) but just wanted to answer your question.
FWIW, I think the risks are mostly theoretical as long as you don't make a habit of cosmetic surgeries, just you only get one life so all things being equal, less is better. A surgeon said to me "at your age, we don't really worry about problems" and he's on the ball. The biggest risk in practice is that you get the wrong surgery done and don't like the results, now or at some point later. Odds of disease in general are substantially higher. 20% of people will develop chronic illness at some point in their lives.
In retrospect, I never should have had kids but I'll count my blessings that they're all normal, healthy, and thriving
