Cosmetic surgery can improve a person’s appearance, boosting their confidence. Though occasionally, things do go wrong. If a cosmetic surgeon makes a mistake, the patient may be left injured, with a physical appearance that they find unpleasant. They may be left with scars or disfiguration, or the work done may lack symmetry.
This can lead to negative psychological effects, ranging from a drop in self-esteem and confidence to, in the worst cases, self-loathing or isolation, leading to further treatment. If you have suffered following a procedure, you may be able to make a cosmetic surgery claim for compensation.
All surgical procedures carry risks, but the most common areas where mistakes are made are listed below:

A claim would usually be bought against a cosmetic surgeon, when they have failed to perform their duties adequately. This could lead to damaging mistakes, both physically and psychologically. However, mistakes could have also been made, not only by the cosmetic surgeon, but also an anaesthetist, or a nurse or doctor.
You must be quick if you wish to make a cosmetic injury claim, as there is usually a three-year time limit after your operation where you are able to come forward. Our medical negligence solicitors can provide you with a free consultation to discuss your potential case.
