Your right to be fully informed
All clinical practitioners owe their patients a duty of care and must obtain informed consent before promoting or undertaking any treatment. You should be fully and comprehensively informed about the procedure before electing to proceed.
This is particularly important in cosmetic treatment, where procedures are elective and are often marketed as simple when they are, in fact, invasive surgery. If you were not made properly aware of the risks, alternatives or likely results before agreeing to proceed, and you suffered harm as a result, that failure to obtain informed consent may form the basis of a cosmetic negligence claim.
You should be informed about:
- The necessity of the treatment and its suitability for you
- What the treatment entails, the process and any further treatment
- What to expect, including comfort and discomfort levels
- Full cost transparency for the treatment and possible further work
- The probability of success or failure
- Problems that may arise and the risks entailed
- Appropriate alternative treatments and their considerations
- Aftercare considerations once treatment is complete
