Why Westminster Insurance

What's included in Aesthetics insurance?

Everything you need in one simple policy.

Professional Indemnity for Aestheticians

Professional Indemnity insurance protects you if a client claims that your advice, service, or work caused them financial loss or reputational harm. Whether it's a mistake, oversight, or miscommunication, it covers legal costs and compensation if you're found to be at fault — helping you defend your reputation and your business.

  • Protection if a client alleges breach of duty of care relating to your service such as consultation, skin analysis, treatment or advice
  • Suitable for services such as aesthetic treatments, skincare advice or professional recommendations

Public Liability for Aestheticians

Public Liability insurance covers you if someone is injured or their property is damaged because of your work. It protects against claims made by clients, members of the public, or venue owners — covering legal fees and compensation if you're held responsible. Essential for anyone interacting with people or working in different locations.

It covers legal defence and compensation costs if you're accused of causing injury or distress through your professional techniques, advice, or products.

  • Covers negligent acts, errors & omissions during treament that result in bodily injury (including infection), mental injury or illness

Why Choose Westminster Insurance

Why Choose Westminster Insurance

Running a beauty and skincare business comes with enough challenges—your insurance shouldn’t be one of them.

Whether you're based in a salon, running your own clinic, or offering mobile services, you need cover that fits—and grows—with your treatments and your business.

We do things differently. Our cover is flexible, clear, and easy to update as your business evolves. And if something ever does go wrong, you’ll speak to a real person who understands you—not a script or a chatbot.

Skincare professionals across the UK trust Westminster to keep their businesses protected while they focus on changing lives through better skin health. We’re here to make your insurance simple, supportive, and truly built around how you work.
