Can a doctor put in a different implant style than what was written and agreed upon?

Asked By:Calm128643 in Knoxville, Tennessee

No hate to my doctor, I think he must have just not understood that I was asking for Natrelle Inspira Highly Cohesive (which is what I specifically wrote on all my signed forms). As it turns out, I just received my implant cards & he actually put in the Softtouch (SSX) rather than the Highly Cohesive (SCX) that I asked for. We had verbally agreed I’d be switching to “the gummiest, firmest implant on the market.” Are the Highly Cohesive (SCX) really only used for cancer patients? Confused.
