Other Common Esthetician Insurance Coverage Questions

Since estheticians work closely with people’s bodies and can adversely affect their appearance or even cause injury with some treatments, both general and professional liability insurance are crucial for a successful practice. BBI’s esthetician liability insurance provides both general and professional liability at a $3,000,000 aggregate limit and an occurrence limit of $2,000,000.

General liability insurance (also known as “slip-and-fall insurance”) protects what the title implies—incidents like slipping and falling. If a client trips on your equipment and sustains an injury, general liability insurance can protect you against any possible lawsuits.

Professional liability insurance provides protection if a client sues you for damages that resulted from a treatment you provided. This type of insurance is also commonly referred to as malpractice insurance. If a client sustains an injury from an esthetician treatment that you provide, malpractice insurance for estheticians can protect you.

In addition to general and professional liability insurance, you will also want to look at products completed operations coverage for estheticians. This would provide protection for you if a client had an allergic reaction to a product that you used on them, like eyelash glue or makeup.

Buy Policy

To put it simply, yes. Because you are working on people’s skin, you will want to be protected if they have an allergic reaction or sustain other injuries from your treatments and day-to-day business operations. The costs of medical care, legal defense, and more can add up quickly, draining both your business and personal assets.

You also may be required to have professional liability insurance for estheticians if you rent space at a spa or salon, and they may even require you to list them as an additional insured on your policy.

Buy Policy

You can fill out an an application online in less than 10 minutes. Once your application is filled out and submitted, you’ll get instant esthetician insurance coverage and access to your insurance documents, dashboard, and proof of insurance (assuming you qualify). You can also elect to set your coverage start date up to 30 days in the future from the date of purchase.
