Are surgeons held accountable?

July 22, 2024
Asked By:blah in dc in Fore Store, Virginia

I understand a face lift isn’t always perfect, but when there are legitimate issues such as my ears look diff and I still have eye lid issues, raised scars behind ears &chin, face is not symmetrical, lightly touching my skin makes a nerve tingle all the way to the eye.doesnt the Dr have a responsibility to correct it? It seems like the only way to get a Dr to correct it or reimburse you is a lawsuit? Even then you’d have to be deformed to win. Is there no recourse? Thank you
