We are a firm of specialist injury lawyers with vast experience in helping people claim for cosmetic surgery negligence. Having helped thousands of people and having acted for a large amount of the PIP scandal victims, we know the industry well, and we can advise you of your rights from a legal perspective.<\/p>\n

What we can also tell you is that the industry is very badly regulated here in the UK – so taking your chances abroad can be seriously dangerous.
\n<\/p>\n

Have you been offered cheaper cosmetic surgery abroad?<\/h2>\n

Whether you have searched for surgery abroad or whether you are looking at being referred by a UK firm or UK agent to have the surgery abroad, you should consider the dangers. If you have already had surgery abroad and something has gone wrong, then we will do all we can to see if we can help you.<\/p>\n

There is a reason why it can be cheaper abroad. Saving money in this way can leave you with lifelong consequences.<\/p>\n

I’ve had surgery abroad that’s gone wrong – help!<\/h3>\n

If you have had the surgery abroad then we may still be able to help you if something has gone wrong.<\/p>\n

If you were referred through a UK agent or a foreign company marketing through a UK website then we may be able to assist with a claim. It can still be difficult because it can come down to the standards abroad which may be lower, and the practitioner abroad may not have adequate insurance cover.<\/p>\n

We are a firm of real lawyers<\/a> who can provide you with real legal advice – so contact us 0800 634 7575 and we will see if we can assist you.<\/p>\n

Cosmetic surgery negligence – it’s a speciality of ours<\/h4>\n

Cosmetic surgery negligence is a very complex area of law and you need a specialist lawyer with the right experience to help you. We have just that – but take care when speaking to non-specialist lawyers who may not have the right know-how to help you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
