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.
We make the process straightforward, so you can focus on your recovery:
Prioritise your health and make sure you receive appropriate treatment. Keep a record of your injuries and any medical care you receive.
Take photos of your injuries, keep copies of medical records and correspondence, and note down any details that may support your case.

Yes. While a consent form is important, it does not absolve the provider from responsibility if they were negligent during your procedure.
Doctors and surgeons must have insurance or indemnity cover. Some smaller salons or mobile beauticians may not have enough insurance, which can make a claim harder. We’ll check this as part of looking at your case.
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 provider failing to carry out the treatment with reasonable care and skill. For most consumers, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says services must be provided with reasonable care and skill. We may also bring claims for negligence, breach of contract, or under the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957.
We handle a wide range of personal injury and medical negligence claims, including accidents abroad, cruise ship illness and accidents, cosmetic surgery, surgical error, misdiagnosis, medication error, and birth injury. If you’re not sure whether your situation qualifies, get in touch and we’ll let you know.
It’s complicated, and every claim is different. Medical negligence claims often take longer than other injury claims, because we need expert medical evidence to show what went wrong and how it affected you. For claims against the NHS, the National Audit Office found it takes around 1.7 years on average from when a claim is made to when it’s resolved. More complex claims, such as serious birth injuries, can take longer. We’ll keep you updated at every stage.
