PIP Implant Compensation Claims

PIP implants (Poly Implant Prothese), have received a lot of media coverage over recent times. These silicone breast implants are thought to have been used by approximately 300,000 people globally and around 40,000 in the UK.

A large number of PIP implant claims are now being made following the discovery that the silicone used was not up to standard had the potential to cause rupturing.

Who is responsible for my PIP implant injury?

The manufacturer (PIP) has now ceased trading, meaning it is not possible to seek compensation directly from them. However, there may be other responsible parties for the purposes of making PIP implant compensation claims.

The clinics and the surgeons (whether private or NHS), will have played a part in any implant surgery. As such, they have a certain accountability to patients. Exactly how much responsibility they should assume is still being examined. Cloverleaf is the company that distributed the implants and it is still under investigation for its level of responsibility in PIP implant complications.

To seek compensation you will normally have to prove any pain or suffering endured; either physical or psychological. Any financial losses are also considered. PIP implant claims are different from other cosmetic surgery cases because, at present, it is unknown what, if any, long-term damage could be.
