What Can I Do About Botox Overdose?

June 16, 2010
Asked By:philo1933 in UK

Can I sue a botox injector who gave a higher dose to my daughter and made her face "wonky"? The consultant has now assured us that he will inject her the next dose instead of his junior. In the meantime she faces humility. What can I do?
