You could be owed compensation. If you’ve experienced unexpected complications or poor results after cosmetic surgery, you are not alone. When something goes wrong due to negligence or mistakes, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
Start Your Claim
A cosmetic surgery claim is your opportunity to seek compensation for injuries or complications caused by medical negligence during a cosmetic procedure. This could involve surgical errors, poor aftercare, or mistakes in non-surgical treatments such as fillers, laser therapy, or chemical peels.
If a clinic, hospital, or beauty salon failed in their duty of care and you’ve suffered as a result, you could be entitled to make a claim. Compensation can help cover medical bills, corrective procedures, lost income, and the emotional impact on your life.
There are time limits for making a claim. In most cases, you have three years from the date of injury or from when you first realised something had gone wrong. If you were under 18 at the time of the procedure, you have until your 21st birthday to claim. The procedure must have taken place in England or Wales.
Cosmetic surgery can sometimes go wrong, and we’re here to help if it does. Some of the most common claims we deal with include:
Ruptures, capsular contracture, severe scarring, or breast implant illness caused by poor surgical technique or substandard care.
Claims for crooked results, breathing difficulties, infection, or nerve damage following negligent nose surgery.
Allergic reactions, facial drooping, infections, and other complications caused by untrained practitioners or unsafe products.
Burns, scarring, or skin discolouration caused by improper use of laser equipment or a lack of proper aftercare advice.
Infections, nerve damage, visible scarring, or unsatisfactory results after a poorly performed facelift or other facial procedure.
Adverse reactions, drooping eyelids, or asymmetrical results due to incorrect dosage or poor injection technique.
Severe scarring, infections, blood clots, or internal damage following negligent surgery or poor post-operative care.
Making a claim isn’t just about financial compensation, it’s about getting your life back on track. Here’s how a successful claim can support you:
If your injury prevents you from working, a claim can help replace lost income while you recover or seek further treatment.
Compensation can help cover vital medical costs, including corrective surgery, specialist consultations, and long-term treatment or care.
A cosmetic surgery claim can provide compensation for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by negligence or poor results.
Compensation may cover essential rehabilitation, such as psychological therapy or counselling, to aid your recovery.
In some cases, further cosmetic surgery is needed to fix previous mistakes. Compensation can help cover these costs.

Yes. While a consent form is important, it does not absolve the provider from responsibility if they were negligent during your procedure.
Yes, it’s crucial that your treatment provider has the appropriate insurance coverage. Many smaller salons or mobile beauticians may not have sufficient insurance, which can make pursuing a claim more challenging. It’s important to check if the provider has the necessary insurance before proceeding with a claim.
Negligence is when a provider’s carelessness leads to an injury. This could include poorly trained staff, inadequate precautions, or faulty equipment. If something went wrong that shouldn’t have, we’re here to help you find justice.
A cosmetic surgery accident happens when something goes wrong during a procedure due to negligence, poor care, or mistakes. This could include surgical errors, faulty implants, infections, or botched non-surgical treatments like fillers.
A cosmetic surgery claim is usually based on the principle that the treatment provider failed to carry out the procedure with reasonable care and skill. Under Section 13 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act, there is an implied term that services will be provided with care and skill. Additionally, we may pursue claims under breach of contract, common law, and/or the Occupiers Liability Act 1957.
