Jury Verdict. A Jury in Bowling Green, KY (Warren County) returned this verdict for a young lady that suffered extensive facial scarring as a result of a dermatologist's negligence. When this teenage girl went to the dermatologist because of concerns about acne, the doctor prescribed a course of Amnesteem (the generic form of Accutane). A complication referred to as a "Flare" (increase in acne/inflammation) arose. Unfortunately, the dermatologist failed to properly treat the flare by stopping the medication and/or adding steroids and antibiotics. The multi-month delay in proper treatment resulted in massive damage to the tissue between skin and facial and skull bones. After 7 surgical procedures, permanent scarring still covers her face.
