Cosmetic surgery is one of the two branches of plastic surgery. The characteristic of non-necessity of this surgical speciality implies an increased severity in the evaluation of the risk-benefit balance. Therefore, great care must be taken in providing all the information necessary in order to obtain valid consent to the intervention. We analyzed judgments concerning cosmetic surgery found in national legal databases. A document of National Bioethics Committee (CNB) was also analyzed.
The receipt of valid, informed consent is of absolute importance not only to legitimise the medical-surgical act, but it also represents the key element in the question concerning the existence of an obligation to achieve certain results/use of certain methods in the cosmetic surgery.
整容手术是整形手术的两个分支之一。这种外科专科的非必要性特征意味着在评估风险效益平衡时需要更高的严谨性。因此，在提供所有必要信息以获得对该干预措施的有效同意时必须格外小心。我们分析了国家法律数据库中有关整容手术的判决。还分析了国家生物伦理委员会（CNB）的一份文件。
获得有效的知情同意不仅对于使医疗手术行为合法化至关重要，而且它也是整容手术中关于是否有义务实现某些结果/使用某些方法这一问题的关键要素。
