WHAT ARE THE SIGNS THAT MY ACNE TREATMENT HAS GONE WRONG?

Following dermabrasion, chemical peels, laser treatment, subcision or punch techniques for the treatment of acne and acne scarring, any redness or bruising of the skin normally subsides within a few days.

However, if your skin does not settle or there is some other indication of your acne treatment going wrong, then you may be entitled to compensation.

The following symptoms could indicate you have suffered a negligent acne treatment:

• Hyperpigmentation – the skin appears darker than normal or leaves a dark mark
• Hypopigmentation –the skin appears lighter than normal
• Inappropriate scarring after the acne treatment

What is the Process of Making an Acne Treatment Claim?

If you have suffered due to an acne treatment gone wrong, then we would strongly suggest you get in touch with us today to start the claims process. We will discuss the unique circumstances of your situation and assess whether you are eligible to make a claim. If you are eligible - and should you choose to proceed - an independent, specialist surgeon will discuss your surgery with you and prepare a report which outlines what went wrong.

Once this report is ready, we will be able to determine how much compensation you could secure for making an acne treatment claim. We may then take steps to get in touch with the professional who is responsible for the negligent treatment with a detailed Letter of the Claim. Once the negligent party has received this letter, they have up to four months to respond. If they do not respond, the next stage normally is to start court proceedings.

You can read more about this with our guide that explains the claims process.

How Long Will the Claims Process Take?

Acne treatment cases can vary, so no two claims are alike. Each of our clients receive a bespoke service tailored to their circumstances, which means there is no standard claims process time limit.

However, the moment you start your claim with us you will be assigned a dedicated solicitor to your case. They will review the details of your situation and let you know what to expect every step of the way.

Is There a Time Limit on Acne Treatment Claims?

As a general rule, you have up to three years to make an acne treatment claim. This time limit begins from the date when you had the acne treatment or from the point you realised (or ought to have realised) that the acne treatment had gone wrong.

If you have had acne treatment that went wrong, we would strongly suggest that you get in touch with our team today to start the claims process.

How Much Compensation Can I Get For an Acne Treatment Gone Wrong?

The amount of compensation you could secure for an acne treatment claim really depends upon the unique circumstances of your situation. The amount of compensation will be calculated based on the injury sustained, the level of suffering and also any financial losses which you have incurred due to the negligent treatment.

As a rough guide, compensation for your physical and psychological injuries could amount to up to circa £50,000 or more and in addition you could recover your financial losses including the costs of any corrective surgery or therapy and loss of earnings.
