UNITED KINGDOM, DECEMBER 2017 – Beauty treatment procedures have increased more than 100 per cent since 2000 and the types of cosmetic procedures customers go for have changed. Among those that are popular today include microdermabrasion, laser hair removal, soft tissue fillers and chemical peels.
Several cosmetic procedures, including hair removal that makes use of lasers are generally safe, but there is also a risk of the laser causing serious burns due to lack of experience, training or knowledge of the aesthetician. Other factors can also make this type of injury eligible for a personal injury claim.

Laser removal treatment customers could suffer from second-degree burns. A person can feel a sore sensation when the skin is touched, have blisters on their skin or have touch-sensitive redness. The suffering from a second-degree burn could last for three weeks and in some cases, the victim needs skin grafting.

If the laser setting is not according to the manufacturer's recommendation, the customer could suffer from third degree burns that can affect the bloodstream, organs and bones. You might suffer complications such as nerve damage, infection, blood loss or shock. You might have scars over the burned area.

It's possible to take legal action against the establishment that caused your injury. Shires Law explains that filing a medical malpractice lawsuit is not applicable in this case, though. Shires Law clarifies that the law does not consider laser hair removal as a medical treatment. Moreover, the procedure does not require a licensed doctor to perform it. Non-surgical staff, cosmetologists and technicians who have received training on how to use the laser equipment are allowed to conduct such procedures.
A person who suffers burns due to a laser hair removal procedure can have cause for legal action that comes about due to violation of the Deceptive Trade Practices Act or negligence.

If you have a viable claim, you have to present evidence of the damages you incurred, such as emotional distress, costs of corrective treatment, rehabilitation services and other medical expenses. Trust Shires Law to help you prepare everything to file your claim for compensation legally.
