They Look Real and Fabulous, But It's Still Malpractice

If you go to have plastic surgery to remove wrinkles and excess skin after you lose a whole bunch of weight, you'd think that you're going to get a tummy tuck and other similar procedures. Well, that's not what happened to one patient in Germany. They gave the 33 year-old woman breast implants - increasing her size from a C cup to a D cup.

A German woman is suing doctors after she checked in to have wrinkles removed - and woke up with a new pair of breasts.

Ingrid Bruelling, 33, had the operation in the German city of Kassel.

She wanted to give herself firmer skin and remove the wrinkles after losing 16 stone on a crash diet.

But when she woke up after the operation she found doctors had put two silicone implants into her breasts, increasing their size from a C cup to a D.

Doctors said the woman should not complain as the best way to tighten the skin and remove the wrinkles was to make her breasts bigger.

I still smell a medical malpractice suit coming on because they didn't do what she had authorized them to do. Her implants might look real and fabulous, but that doesn't mean that the doctors still aren't on the hook for malpractice. (HT: NJDhockeyfan at LGF)
