Liposuction, also known as suction lipectomy, is another of the most common cosmetic procedures performed in the UK. It involves using either a suction technique or ultrasonic energy to remove fat from the body. While it is generally considered a safe cosmetic procedure, complications are not uncommon. If complications are caused by the procedure being performed negligent, and the patient suffers an injury as a result, they may be entitled to claim compensation under the law of medical negligence.
Injuries commonly caused by negligently performed liposuction that may entitle the victim to compensation include:
- Deep vein thrombosis
- Infection
- Burns
- Scars
- Bumpy skin
- Blood poisoning
- Puncture of an internal organ, such as the intestines
