It’s not always easy to choose to undergo
facial surgery, and as such many people who have chosen to embark upon a chin
or chin implant procedure do so with high expectations. Such as sensitive area
of the body, the face is often the last place we’d like to experience poor
treatment. In most cases, medical teams provide an experienced and professional
service that leaves patients feeling pleased with their decision. However, in
the situation that this is not the case, patients can be left with serious
injuries that last a lifetime.
Your chin and cheeks are in a prominent position,
and as such are a vital part of your overall appearance. This makes it even
more devastating when something goes wrong during facial surgery. If you have
been left to deal with facial scarring or any other injuries that are the result
of poor treatment, you may wish to hold your medical team responsible and
claim the compensation you deserve.
The
Risks of Cheek and Chin Implants
There are many risks associated with chin
and cheek implant surgery, and if your medical team fail to highlight these risks
before your treatment takes place then it is possible that you could be
entitled to make a compensation claim. The consequences of the risks of such a
surgery can be devastating to those unaware, particularly if they are due to
the fault and failure of your medical team. Some of the more common risks
associated with chin and cheek implants include:
•
Bleeding into the tissues, which can cause pain and
discomfort
•
Haematoma as a result of tissue bleeding
•
Infection, which can lead to excessive scarring
•
Excessive asymmetry
•
Nerve damage across the face
•
Reduction or loss of sensation and muscle control
If you have suffered injuries similar to
those above then it is highly likely you are entitled to make a chin
and cheek implant compensation claim. This compensation can be used by
victims of injuries to compensate their suffering, and to cover any financial
costs that have been incurred as a result of the injury. Some of the most
common costs covered by compensation are additional medical costs, which have been
incurred while the patient attempts to rectify any physical injuries, or any
loss of income that has been suffered as a result of the injuries.
