If you suffered an injury due to a negligent beauty treatment, our solicitors focus 100% on your care, recovery & claim.
SDS Solicitors' expert Beauty Treatment Injury Solicitors are available to assess your case of beauty treatment injury, and can ensure the best possible outcome for your compensation claim.
Beauty treatments are increasingly popular, with a great number of people across all ages seeking procedures which may range from simple hair dyes, to lip fillers, to tattoos and piercings.
It is, unfortunately, quite common for injuries to occur as a result of negligent or incompetent treatment while undergoing a beauty procedure. This is particularly distressing for those injured, as their social life, career and confidence can be impacted by all types of cosmetic accidents.
It is unreasonable to expect such results from a treatment that is designed to relax you and boost your daily confidence.
You may be surprised to learn that beauty treatments are unregulated in the UK, and the technician carrying out the procedure you asked for may have had very little training.
Our expert Accident Claims Solicitors can help you throughout the process of your beauty treatment injury claim against a salon, spa, or technician. Contact us today to assess your case in a compassionate and confidential manner.
If you have suffered an injury due to negligent beauty treatment, it is very important to keep a detailed record of events, consequences, agreements, and conversations. The more evidence you can collect, the easier it will be for you to achieve a compensation you can be satisfied with.
You must also start your claim within 3 years of the accident, or from the discovery of the injury. This is different for claimants who were under the age of 18 at the time of the accident, as they must start the process before their 21st birthday.
The sooner you begin your claim, the easier it will be for you to recollect the events clearly. You should start your compensation claim as soon as it is reasonable for you to do so.
Evidence and documentation that will benefit the validity of your claim include:
Having any of this information can help your claim, but it is not essential. Our specialist Beauty Treatment Injury Claims Solicitors can support you throughout your claim and ensure you reach the best outcome, regardless of your circumstances.
Like any other injury claim, it can be daunting to begin the compensation process. The prospect of starting legal proceedings against a business or professional can feel overwhelming, but you can be assured our team of Personal Injury Claims Solicitors will make each step simple and clear.
Beauty treatment injuries can feel particularly upsetting, as your injury may have affected your self-image and confidence. You may feel that no amount of compensation can make things right, but it is vital to start the process. On top of receiving monetary compensation and reimbursement for your expenses, beauty treatment injury claims ensure the business that has caused your accident is held accountable. They will, hopefully, be deterred from making the same mistakes again.
Call us today to start your claim and find out how much your beauty treatment injury claim is worth.
There are many factors which can dictate the amount you can claim in your beauty treatment injury compensation claim. These will usually fall into the categories of General Damages and Special Damages.
General Damages are calculated considering the severity of your injuries and comparing your injury and prognosis against the guidelines set out by the Judicial College. Your solicitor will be able to calculate an estimate for your specific injury, but some common compensation amounts are included below.
Special Damages are usually simpler to calculate, as they often include financial losses from time off work, travel costs for medical appointments, corrective treatments and other monetary damages. Typical included costs are listed below:
As the nature of the injury is so varied, it is impossible to calculate a reasonable compensation amount before assessing your unique situation. SDS Solicitors’ specialist Beauty Treatment Injury team can assess your case and guide you through the process, providing you with an accurate estimate of your claim’s worth.

It can be surprising for some to discover that UK law does not require beauty technicians or hairdressers to hold any specific qualifications. The recent rise in popularity of beauty treatments, and consequent fall in prices of beauty equipment, made it possible for many unqualified individuals to start a beauty business or work in a beauty salon.
Procedures such as Botox injections, piercings or lip fillers can be carried out by anyone, with over 50% of beauty technicians in the UK falling below a Level 2 qualification. The low standard of training legally required to be given to technicians are a great factor into the increasingly common beauty treatment accidents.
Both beauty salons and individual professionals have a responsibility to make reasonable adjustments to their practice in order to avoid injuries and uphold their duty of care. A certain amount of risk is associated with all beauty treatments, and you should be informed of this ahead of your procedure, along with possible side effects.
Unfortunately, with the rise in popularity of these treatments, it is increasingly common for things to go wrong. Untrained technicians, cheap products and unsafe equipment can all play a role in beauty treatment negligence claims.
Our Beauty Treatment Injury Claims Solicitors have experience dealing with all types of beauty treatment injuries, and injuries commonly result from treatments such as:
All types of treatment can result in injuries, so if you have suffered as a result of a different beauty treatment you may still have a valid claim. Contact one of our Beauty Treatment Injury Claims Solicitors today and assess your case.
Injuries sustained from a negligent beauty treatment can vary greatly, from minor injuries to severe.
The severity of your injury will be a determining factor in the amount of compensation you can claim in your beauty treatment injury claim. It is vital for victims of these injuries to have a thorough medical report made by a medical professional. This will be the basis for the compensation amount you could receive.
Some of the most common injuries resulting from beauty treatment negligence include:
Additional damages can be claimed for psychological effects of the injury. Incidents related to beauty treatments are likely to affect the victim’s confidence and self-image, especially those involving burns and scars. Consequent treatment may include corrective surgery and counselling, and the emotional and financial damages caused by this can be added to your claim.
