I had plastic surgery (chin lipo) it was uneven and had to redone, now its even worse and I have to have someone else fix it. Can I sue my plastic surgeon? Should I demand a partial return on what I paid first and then sue?
If you demand a partial refund, I think they may consider that as a settlement if you decide to sue...I wouldn't recommend it, but then again, I'm no lawyer. And if the service wasn't done properly, and you have the proof you had to get it fixed, I don't see why you can't sue. I just hope you don't go overboard...get the money it costs to get it redone and a little pain and suffering...that's what I would do at least.
This is what you need to win a medical malpractice lawsuit. You need to PROVE that the bad result was caused by something the plastic surgeon SHOULD have done but did not do, for example, bandaging. OR you need to PROVE that the plastic surgeon did something he should NOT have done, for example, extensive lipo. You have no idea what the injury/bad result is worth. Therefore, I would have an Attorney handle this from beginning to end. If you accept a settlement OR if you demand a return of half, then that will be evidence against you, either precluding you from suing or reducing the amount of the lawsuit. Testimony by other Physicians will be required.
Nahhhhh you should have done more extensive research on the surgeon before getting anything done to your body. Partially your fault.
