What should I do if my surgeon charged me for silicone implants but I received saline?

Dear dcsky17,
the only right thing to do for you is to visit your plastic surgeon and discuss this with him/her.

It seems very straightforward that you should call the surgeon's office and talk to the office manager. It seems that you would surely get your over-charge refunded, but I know life is always that easy. Good luck.

You can try reaching out to your surgeon to discuss the discrepancy. Discovering this concern this far out from surgery though may make things much more difficult on both sides of the issue.

Since it has been 7 years, there is nothing that can be done. As soon as you were given your implants cards, you should have discussed the difference then with your surgeon. You have waited too long to do anything. If you want, you could contact the office, but I doubt anything can be done now.

I suggest you contact your plastic surgeon and discuss the matter with him or her.
If you’re uncertain of the terms or what type of implant was placed, then ask for copies of your medical record, including the consent form you signed, and the implant identification card you were given.
If your price quote or consent form is in conflict with what was delivered then there may be a breach of contract issue or possibly operating without consent issue.
Most likely there is simply a misunderstanding.
I suggest you try to resolve this in the easiest way possible.
Have you tried talking to your plastic surgeon?
Best,
