GP who botched his first face lift guilty of hubris, tribunal says
The GP's training only covered injectables and liposuction, not invasive procedures, the tribunal found.
A GP without training in invasive cosmetic procedures performed a face lift for acne scarring that breached the patient’s occipital artery, a tribunal says.
The Brisbane doctor’s only experience with face lift surgery had been “assisting” another doctor during two procedures seven years earlier, the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal heard in March.
