What are the signs a chin implant has gone wrong?

If your chin implant surgery fails to produce the results you were expecting, then you may have experienced negligence on the part of your plastic surgeon or clinic.

Indications that a chin implant procedure has gone wrong include:

• Displacement of the chin implant after cosmetic surgery
• Asymmetry of the face after the chin augmentation
• Nerve damage
• Loss of sensation
• Loss of muscle control
• Inappropriate or excessive scarring
• Surgeons' duty of care

Patients cannot claim simply on the basis of being unhappy with chin implants. To be eligible to make a claim, you must be able to prove that it went wrong because of negligence. This could be caused by anything from bad operating techniques to a failure to inform you of the potential complications that facial plastic surgery can bring.

How long does the chin implant complications claim process take?

The duration of the compensation process varies depending on the circumstances of each case, and our solicitors take care to review each claim on an individual basis.

Factors that will influence the duration of the claims process include:

• Complexity of the case: the specific details of your situation, including the severity of the complications and whether multiple surgeries or corrective procedures are involved.
• The availability of medical evidence: the ease of gathering this evidence, its clarity and the detail it provides.
• Response of the defendant: some defendants may acknowledge their negligence early and show a willingness to settle, which can expedite the process. Conversely, if the defendant disputes the claim, additional time may be needed for negotiations or, in some instances, court proceedings.
• Legal proceedings: the legal process is thorough and ensures that every aspect of your case is carefully considered, which may take time.
• Settlement negotiations: effective negotiations aimed at reaching a fair settlement can reduce the time required to conclude your claim, whereas prolonged discussions can extend it.

At Cosmetic Surgery Solicitors, we recognise the emotional and physical toll of chin implant complications. Our empathy and experience help our clients to navigate the legalities of their claims as efficiently as possible.
