As in, with more extreme procedures, why is it that they sometimes go horribly wrong? Is there some element of luck, or surgeon incompetence, or something else entirely?
And if it’s one of the first two, then why is it still popular, even among people that aren’t *obsessed* with perfecting their body?

Bodies are complex. Surgery is complex.
I’m not an expert by any means, but as an example say you’re trying to inject silicon etc. In to the body. You need to get it in between two layers that are thin and aren’t designed to have bits between them. It’s not hard to see how even an expert makes a mistake.
Infections happen sometimes. You can obviously minimise risk but it’s just not always possible. And the surgeon can’t be responsible for how the patient cares for their wound at home. Which can bring infections.
Scars are sometimes unpredictable. You can’t say exactly how a wound will close and scar over. Can lead to unusual results.
Basically it’s really hard with small margins for error and definitely some random luck involved.
