Did your cosmetic procedure leave you with devastating results?
Cosmetic surgery, both surgical and non-surgical, is an extremely lucrative business. Many doctors use aggressive marketing tactics to obtain clients and persuade them to undergo pricey procedures, sometimes without any regard to prior medical history or existing health conditions.
In order to cash in on this booming market, many doctors and nurses who lack the necessary specialized training or certification are also performing cosmetic procedures in their offices, without access to the appropriate emergency medical care.
It's very important to know that every procedure carries potential risks if performed by untrained, inexperienced or negligent doctors and nurses.
What are some common cosmetic procedures that could be dangerous if not performed properly?
- Breast augmentation/reduction
- Face-lift and blepharoplasty
- Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping)
