I don't know the exact reasons but will do a little looking around when I get a chance. What I do know from this particular study is that the population that is in the 20% range is made up primarily of cosmetic patients, while the population closer to the 40% range is made up primarily of reconstructive patients.
So I guess a better way to put it would be that about 20% of the cosmetic patients have another surgery within 3 years and up to 40% of the reconstructive patients have another surgery within 3 years.
