Medical responsibility in plastic surgery.. The strictness of the physician's responsibility in cosmetic surgery when the damage is the same as in other types of surgery



Plastic surgeries from other surgeries are characterized by the fact that their procedure is perfect and not necessary for the continuation of life. Therefore, the most strict legislation regarding the responsibility of the doctor in plastic surgery when the damage is contrary to what it is in other types of surgery. In this regard, the story of Mrs. Logan, who threatened a surgeon to commit suicide if he did not agree to have surgery to her legs. Since the operation did not lead to the required result, but accompanied by complications that led to amputation of the leg, the woman sued the surgeon for the damages and damages caused by the operation, which he was sentenced to do so. And when he wanted in his defense to show that the process and the failure of the process is no different from taking any necessary surgery and then failure, I answer that the court is satisfied with his experience and knowledge and good work, but nevertheless condemned him and see no justification for his acquittal because what prompted Mrs. Logan for surgery is Her legs are not the danger to her life, and if she threatened to commit suicide if he did not perform the procedure, it would increase his responsibility. He should have realized the weakness of her psychology and guided her to a psychiatrist to deal with her condition.
