Health & Beauty Claims
Even in times of economic crisis the health and beauty industry has continued to grow with an ever expanding range of treatments becoming available to help the public look their best. It is often the case that a beauty treatment is booked in advance of an eagerly anticipated holiday or special event, if it is performed incorrectly and results in an injury or allergic reaction the results can be devastating. If you have been injured during a treatment at a hairdressers or beauty salon our specialist team can help you claim the compensation you deserve.
Common causes of health & beauty related claims are as follows:
- Allergic Reactions
Before any chemical is applied to your skin, hair or eyelashes a patch test should be performed. This will usually involve the therapist applying a small amount of the product behind the ear or on the inside of the elbow at least 24 hours before the scheduled hair or beauty treatment. The skin’s reaction to the chemical will then be reviewed prior to performing the treatment to ensure that there has been no positive reaction. Redness, itchiness, peeling or soreness would indicate that there has been a positive reaction and if this is the case the therapist should not perform the treatment.
Where chemicals are involved a patch test should always be performed. If you are given a treatment involving chemicals without a patch test and subsequently have an allergic reaction the therapist has acted negligently and you may be able to claim compensation.
- Burns
Burns to the skin can often be caused by overheated wax being applied or spilled accidentally onto the skin or by incorrectly performed steam facials. If you suffer burns to the skin as a result of this the therapist has acted negligently and you may be able to claim compensation.
- Cuts and abrasions
Cuts and abrasions to the skin are often caused by poorly removed wax and hairdressing scissors, this can result in unsightly scarring or infection. If you suffer cuts or abrasions the therapist has acted negligently and you may be able to claim compensation.
