Liposculpture (Liposuction Claims) Liposuction - Before and After
Liposuction before and after pictures hide the reality behind this medical procedure and when medical negligence occurs, the injured party can undergo life-altering injuries. Liposuction has gained popularity in Scotland over the last decade along with the entire cosmetic surgery sector and today the surgery is extremely popular.
About one in every ten thousand liposuctions result in fatal injury according to a report published in Cosmetic Dermatology.
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that removes fat cells from the body by making a small incision and using a specially designed fat vacuum tube. Over 5,000 liposculptures are performed a year in the UK and a small percentage of those procedures do not go according to plan due to subpar medical treatment.
When a Liposuction surgery goes wrong it can cause serious injuries to a patient that may require additional surgeries to correct and ongoing recovery treatments.
Liposuction – Before and After
Patients can feel discomfort, redness, and soreness after the surgery and your physician should explain these side effects to you prior to your consent to the procedure. It is difficult to lodge a claim for expected side effects that cannot be directly attributed to the actions of your surgeon.
Liposuction Surgery Procedure
Your surgeon should go over the exact procedure prior to starting your liposuction and you should have already agreed on the areas and amount of fat cells to remove. You will sign a consent form on the day of the surgery stating that you understand the risks involved with the procedure. You are always entitled to compensation if a surgery has been performed without the use of a consent form.
Patients are given an anaesthetic prior to the procedure and a small incision is made in the areas to be removed. The surgeon will then inject a salt solution to break the fat cells down as the suction tube removes the fat from the body.
Risks of Liposuction – Before and After
There is a spectrum of risks that are associated with liposuction and complications can result in life-altering injuries. Below are some serious complications that can occur as a result of liposuction negligence claims:
- Allergic Reaction
- Infection
- Damaged Skin
- Punctured Internal Organs
- Contour Irregularities
- Burns
- Fat Embolism
- Lidocaine Toxicity
Candidacy
Not everyone is a right fit for liposuction surgery and your surgeon should be honest in their evaluation of your compatibility with the procedure. You should be in good health prior to the surgery and you must have a healthy circulatory system to be eligible for the cosmetic procedure.
