An experienced laser therapist performed IPL laser treatment on a regular client to remove pigmentation on her face. Despite carrying out a patch test prior to the treatment with no side effects, the client ended up suffering a severe reaction which left burns and scarring to her forehead. Unfortunately, the client lodged a claim alleging the therapist had been negligent in performing the IPL treatment, and it was determined that the client was unable to lead a normal life due to suffering severe psychological trauma as a result of the scarring. The matter was settled for a whopping $76,000, including defence costs, which was paid under the therapist’s Professional Indemnity policy.
