Cosmetic Surgery Claims Frequently Asked Questions

 

How Long after Cosmetic Surgery Do You Claim?

Like all medical negligence claims, there is a time limit for making your cosmetic surgery claim. It must be within three years of the surgery taking place, or when the negligence became apparent. You should contact a medical negligence solicitor as soon as possible. 

Will I Have to Go to Court if I Make a Cosmetic Surgery Claim?

Most claims can be settled out of court. There is a chance you may have to attend court under certain circumstances, but this is not likely.

How Much Compensation Will I Get if My Cosmetic Surgery Claim is Successful?

The amount of compensation you will receive depends on a range of factors including the severity of your injuries, the cost of ongoing treatment and care, the loss of earnings, and the impact it’s had on your overall health and well-being.

Medical Negligence Fees

We appreciate that worry about costs can be the biggest barrier to getting professional help – so don’t let it stop you. If we believe you have a claim, then we can potentially pursue it via one of several funding options or fee arrangements such as ‘no win, no fee’ if you are eligible.
