Each and every surgical procedure comes with a risk. Scarring or wound infections are the most common risks with cosmetic surgery which is why this isn’t always considered as negligence.
However, you may be eligible to claim for cosmetic surgery compensation if the following has taken place:
- You were given inadequate information about the risks of the treatment.
- The cosmetic procedure wasn’t provided at the standards it should have been.
- A faulty product or tool was used to undertake the procedure.
- Poor or no aftercare was provided.
For more information, advice, guidance, or legal representation, do not hesitate to contact our experienced cosmetic surgery compensation claims solicitors for a free consultation. We provide a transparent and caring service in which you and your circumstances will be properly analysed and we will determine whether or not you have a valid claim.
