Every now and then, you head to a beauty clinic for a facial. You do so because you want to remove pimples, blackheads and other facial blemishes. You may also just get a facial massage just so you will be relaxed. The only problem is that you could end up with allergic reactions especially if creams and other chemicals are used on your face.
Beauty clinics are not well-regulated. Those who are tasked to do facial treatments are not necessarily medical experts. As long as they have trained for the job, they are allowed to do it. In the event of an allergic reaction, the first thing that you have to do is to take medicines. Antihistamines are best for allergies. You may also apply hydrocortisone creams.
These solutions could somehow ease the pain or at least prevent the allergies from getting worse. If you don’t get better, head to your doctor right away. Allergies are not to be treated lightly. Some people have died because of simple allergies that have got worse.
Get medical adviceÂ
You need a doctor to tell you what to do no next and how to stop the problem from getting worse. You also need help to document this condition. You may need this document later should you decide to ask for compensation for what happened.
You can make a beauty injury claim
The chemicals used for facial treatments must be totally safe. They should have been tested on different types of skin before use. They must not be applied simply because they seem to work for many people. It could end up with a huge mess. If you are the victim, the first thing to do is seek medical attention.
Once the allergies have subsided, it is time to find a lawyer experienced in beauty injury claims. You might have to deal with the allergies for a while. During the given time, you might not be able to work. The allergies could also leave permanent scars. This could affect your physical appearance and even lead to lower self-esteem.
The medical expenses could pile up over time and getting a new job where your scars won’t matter might take time. These things should be taken into serious consideration, and you need a legal expert in this battle. The good thing is that there are a lot of lawyers who are willing to help out without the need to be paid first. Once you have won a certain amount in settlement, this is the only time when you will be charged. This should make you feel more confident to continue the battle and get what is rightfully yours.
