Insurance for laser tattoo removal

What insurance do you need to do laser tattoo removal?

There are two essential types of insurance for anyone performing laser tattoo removal.

The first is treatment and professional liability insurance (also known as medical malpractice). If the worst happens, and a client is left with burns, for example, your legal fees and any compensation are covered. It’ll also cover you if a client isn’t happy with the results and makes a claim against you.

The second is public liability insurance. This one covers you if you a client has an accident, or their property is damaged while they’re in your care. Say you leave trailing wires on the floor and a client trips. Or you spill something on their phone, and it goes kaput.

The good news is that this can all come as one package – so you know you’ve got all the essential cover your need for laser tattoo removal in one place.

There are some other types of insurance you might want to think about too. If you have your own studio or salon, it’s worth having contents insurance to protect your laser machines, and any other equipment you need to do your work.

If you have a website, hold information about your clients digitally, or take payments online, cyber insurance is a good idea. And don’t forget, if you have staff, you need employers’ liability insurance. It’s the law.

Who is laser tattoo removal insurance for?

If you’re venturing into laser tattoo removal, chances are you’re already an expert in your field and offering other similar treatments, such as laser hair removal. Or perhaps you’re a tattooist looking to branch out.

Whatever your journey has been, you’ll need insurance to cover laser tattoo removal.

Whether you’re a dermatologist, aesthetician, tattooist, or you’ve trained specifically to offer laser tattoo removal only – we can cover you.

What qualifications do you need to do laser tattoo removal?

Laser tattoo removal is serious business, so your training and qualifications need to be up to scratch for you to be covered.

You'll need to be fully trained on the specific equipment you use. And each insurer will ask for different examples of your training and qualifications. As a minimum, you're either a licensed medic, or have completed an NVQ level 3 in beauty therapy along with a core of knowledge course in laser treatments.

How much does laser tattoo removal insurance cost?

The cost of cover depends on:

• Your experience and qualifications
