Patient: liposuction permanently scarred abdomen

The plaintiff underwent a liposuction and “BBL” procedure in 2018. The plaintiff alleged that the defendant failed to use proper technique during the procedure, which caused over-thinning and compromised circulation of the skin. The plaintiff also alleged lack of informed consent and negligent post-operative care.
