We've got your Liposuction or Abdominoplasty Claim covered


There are many reasons why people choose to undergo liposuction and other tummy procedures. If you received sub-standard treatment because of someone’s negligence, you could be entitled to compensation, regardless of why you chose to go through this process.

Our specialist cosmetic claims lawyers will consider everything when reviewing your case, not just in terms of pain caused, but also how the procedure and lack of care has affected you. We will do our very best to get you the compensation you deserve.

You may be able to claim for:

• Injury to internal organs
• Incorrect amount of skin removed resulting in poor mobility
• Infections in and around the area
• Potential life-threatening situations not highlighted previous to surgery
• Potential long-term injuries as a result of negligent treatment
• Persistent localised pain

Even if it was not the procedure itself that has caused you harm, but the treatment you received after, you may still be entitled to compensation.

If you call us today, we can take details of your case and our medical negligence solicitors team will quickly come back to you and let you know if we can take your case further.

We realise that there is so much more to your case than just receiving monetary compensation and we will be there to support you every step of the way.

    Sarah's Story

    "Now we have peace of mind"

    My husband, Nick, went back and forth to the doctors for a long time and tried everything the doctor recommended. But his illness got worse, to the point that he was in agony.

    In the end we got so desperate that we asked for a referral. The doctor was reluctant, so we had to consult a private hospital. That’s when we found out there was a tumour. It took years from the onset of his illness to finally start cancer treatment.

    He used to be a man with a lot to live for, but in the end he was in so much pain that he withdrew from the family. He became angry that nobody had helped him sooner, and the legal team were able to give him the validation that he was desperately seeking. The NHS confirmed if they had done more, Nick would still be alive today.
