Trust through independence

Medical responsibility, patient autonomy and the separation of advice, treatment and outcome assessment

D. Rieger, M. Braun, M. Teiger, K. Salazar

Manuscript date: IAGS-2026-001 · Version 1.0

Relevance to Mc Aesthetics

The article discusses Mc Aesthetics in relation to structured clarification of personal wishes before a consultation. It considers how goals, expectations and features a person wishes to preserve can be documented clearly, and how this preparation supports an informed decision.

Section 6.4 · Narrative evidence synthesis and analysis of medical governance models

Three separate physician roles: A independent advice, B treatment and aftercare, C independent outcome review. The patient's decision remains autonomous.

The organisational model discussed in the article

Conceptual diagram based on IAGS draft 0.1 (30 September 2026). A, B and C are different people with separate financial interests. A and C offer the patient no subsequent elective aesthetic treatment. This is an organisational proposal, not an empirically validated causal pathway; necessary care and aftercare remain available.
