Viewed from a clinical standpoint, aesthetic medicine is founded on the four fundamental principles of medical ethics: autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice.

Here is an explanation of what constitutes a reasonable body, how it is evaluated, and its role in determining the standard of care.

From my experience, it is crucial for solicitors to rely on expert witnesses to provide clarity on whether a practitioner’s actions met the expected standard of care.

Negligence is a type of civil wrongdoing (tort) that happens when someone fails to take reasonable care, and their actions (or lack of them) cause harm or loss to another person. It’s one of the most common types of claims in personal injury, medical malpractice, and other civil cases.
