You are entitled to lodge a claim for negligence if you have experienced subpar medical treatment that resulted in injury. A dermal filler injury claim can be the best options for someone seeking compensation for their damages. A Dermal Filler works similar to Botox treatments in that it is designed to be injected under the skin to remove wrinkles. This minimally evasive cosmetic surgery has gained popularity over the last 5-years as the entire cosmetic surgery sector has experienced growth in Scotland. Claim Solutions Scotland Ltd can help you to seek compensation for your injuries and our expert team will help you gather the evidence you need to be successful in lodging your claim.
Causes of Dermal Filler Injuries
Dermal filler injuries are becoming more common in Scotland as cosmetic surgeries, in general, have reached record popularity. Cosmetic surgeons are not held to the same stringent licensing and operating standards found in traditional medical procedures.
This is part of the reason that it is very important that you research your medical practitioner to ensure they are of the highest quality prior to allowing them to operate on you. Negligence can occur for many reasons. Below are the most commonly encountered causes of dermal filler injuries in Scotland.
Procedural Error
Procedural errors can happen without warning including incorrect placement and overcorrection. Both of these injuries are the result of negligence on the part of your cosmetic surgeon and both can leave the injured with uneven skin, facial pain, and unusual lumps. It can be extremely difficult to remove filler once it is placed under your skin and this procedure can be more costly than the original surgery in most instances.
Failure to Advise
A failure to advise occurs when your practitioner fails to mention the possible side-effects and negative reactions that one could endure as a result of their surgery. It is paramount that your surgeon properly explains the risks you are facing prior to your surgery in order to provide you with the information you need to decide if the surgery is right for you. This also includes pre-screenings to make sure that you are not allergic to any of the medications that will be administered during the procedure.
What Do I Need to Lodge a Dermal Filler Injury Claim?
You will need to prove that your injuries are the result of negligence and that they are indeed as severe as you claim. Both of these points can require a second medical opinion and Claim Solutions Scotland Ltd can help you to gather this information in a timely manner.
How Long Do I Have to Lodge My Claim for Negligence?
You have three years from the date you are injured to lodge your claim after that point you will no longer be eligible to receive compensation for your losses. You should always lodge your claim as soon as possible because it will give you access to the most evidence. Waiting to lodge your claim can also arise suspicion with your cosmetic surgeon’s insurance company.
Claim for Negligence – How Much Compensation will I Receive?
