Beauty Treatment Compensation Claims

When you visit a beauty salon, you expect a professional service from trained staff. When this isn’t the case, a routine treatment can end up causing you harm. If you've suffered an injury at a beauty salon, we can help.

The lack of regulations in the beauty industry means that salon staff can use equipment and perform treatments without proper training or experience. If you’ve suffered an injury as a result of negligent treatment by a beauty therapist, we can help you claim compensation.

Our solicitors have experience making beauty treatment compensation claims for:

Injuries from lip fillers
Injuries from incorrect use of semi-permanent makeup
Lacerations, blisters, burns and infections from waxing
Loss of hair
Eye injuries from lash extensions or dyes
Allergic reactions to wax, eyebrow and eyelash dye
Burns and rashes from tanning
Burns or scarring from chemical peels and laser treatments
Damage to the nail beds from excessive filing
Reactions to manicure and pedicure products
Fungal infections from sterilized equipment

How Much Compensation Can I get?

This depends on the injuries and financial losses you've suffered. Every injury is different, and your circumstances will be unique to you. We offer a free initial consultation where we'll discuss your situation and how this can affect your compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Risks Of Beauty Treatments In A Salon?

Routine beauty treatments often don’t require a trained medical professional to carry them out. This means there is more chance of mistakes being made.

You may have suffered because guidelines weren’t followed, your health information wasn’t checked, appropriate aftercare wasn’t provided or when faulty equipment was used.

Complications include:

Dermal fillers – rashes, swelling, itching and bruising can occur. The filler can also move away from the intended area and you can suffer allergic reactions which may lead to anaphylaxis. Lumps can form under the skins and filler can also block blood vessels, resulting in the surrounding tissue dying.
Botulinum toxin injections (including Botox) – your facial features around the injected area can become weak and may droop. You can also suffer from blurred or double vision and experience breathing difficulties.
Chemical peels – superficial peels, medium peels and deep peels can cause similar complications including scarring and infection. Your skin might also appear lighter or darker than normal.
Laser treatments – the skin can blister, sometimes causing scarring. Your skin colour can also change.
Microdermabrasion – swelling can result in the treated area and the skin can become red. You may also become more sensitive to sun after the treatment.
Eyelash extensions and tinting – allergic reactions to chemicals used in eyelash glue and dye can cause rashes, swelling and even damage to the eyes. A patch test should be conducted before your procedure to check you don’t have a reaction to chemicals in the products.

If you’ve suffered an injury from a beauty treatment and would like to make a claim, we could help. Call us on 0800 056 4110 or contact us online.

What Is A Patch Test?

A patch test is used by beauticians to check if a client is allergic to any chemicals used in their products.

The patch test should be given 24 hours before any treatment that uses chemicals.

If you haven’t been given a patch test and suffer an injury or reaction, we could help you make a claim. Call us on 0800 056 4110 or contact us online.

Can I Make A Claim If I've Been Injured While Working At A Salon?

If you work at a beauty salon and have suffered an injury while at work, we could help.

We have experience helping beauty and nail technicians who’ve had an allergic reaction to products used for treatments. For more information, see our Accidents at Work Claims page

We’ve also helped people who’ve developed asthma due to chemical exposure from acrylic nails and polishes. For more information, see our Occupational Asthma Claims page.

Is There Anything I Can Do To Help My Claim?

If you’ve suffered an injury, you should get medical attention as soon as possible.

Please take photos of your injuries, and keep any receipts from the beauty salon you visited. This will help us confirm where your injury took place.
