Beauty Bites: Tattoo application and removal, preventing avoidable claims


Within our insurance team, Capsticks deal with a large number of beauty and cosmetic claims. This is the first in a series of short articles which we hope will help to identify and manage the risk of common problems we encounter in a beauty claims portfolio. 

Tattoos, and their removal, have become increasingly popular procedures in recent years. However, this increase has led to a rise in customer complaints and claims. We frequently encounter claims with similar themes and have compiled a list of key factors to ensure clients are well-informed prior to any procedure, reducing the risk of a claim. 

How Capsticks can help

Our insurance team recognises the importance of offering clear information to help clients and their customers avoid preventable claims. 

Capsticks are routinely instructed to assist with all aspects of cosmetic and beauty claims. We are able to provide support to organisations and individuals facing claims and can also assist with risk management and policy advice where needed.  

If you have any queries around the issues discussed in this article, and the impact on your organisation, please speak to Sarah Bryant or Diandra Bennett.
