Plasma pens are non-invasive devices that use targeted plasma energy for skin rejuvenation. It’s a popular choice in UK aesthetics, but like any cosmetic treatment, fibroblast therapy comes with liability concerns.
At Enhance Insurance, we specialise in arranging insurance cover for aesthetic practitioners, including those offering plasma pen treatments. We understand the risks involved and provide tailored protection that can safeguard your clients, business, and peace of mind.
What Is Plasma Pen Treatment?
A plasma pen is a handheld device used for non-surgical skin tightening. It creates a small electrical arc that lightly touches the skin’s surface without direct contact. This controlled heat causes tiny injuries, which trigger the skin’s natural healing process and boost collagen production.
The treatment targets deeper skin layers to firm and smooth areas like the eyelids, mouth, and neck. Because it works below the surface and carries some risk, practitioners need specialist insurance that covers the tools, techniques, and possible side effects.

What Risks Do Plasma Pen Practitioners Face?
Plasma pen treatments are generally safe when performed by qualified practitioners. However, they carry risks that make insurance essential. This may include:
- Burns or scarring if the treatment is performed incorrectly
- Allergic reactions to numbing agents
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Client dissatisfaction with results
- Claims of negligence or inadequate aftercare advice
- Equipment damage or theft
The plasma pen’s ability to tighten sagging skin around the eyelids and reduce wrinkles has made it popular, but these delicate treatment areas also present higher risks. Treating sensitive areas near the eyes requires exceptional skill. Even the most experienced practitioners may face claims.
Why Do You Need Specialist Plasma Pen Insurance?
Standard beauty insurance often doesn’t cover plasma pen treatments. These procedures work deeper in the skin and are more advanced than typical beauty treatments.
We can arrange bespoke plasma pen insurance. Your policy can protect you if something goes wrong, even when you follow the right steps. It can cover legal fees, compensation claims, and experienced support if a client makes a complaint.

What Does Plasma Pen Insurance Cover?
Plasma pen treatments are effective but come with risks. Insurance can protect practitioners from the unexpected and provide peace of mind when offering advanced aesthetic services.
Medical Malpractice Cover
Malpractice insurance can protect you against claims of negligence during treatment. If a client says a procedure caused harm or didn’t go as expected, this cover can help with legal and compensation costs.
Public Liability Cover
Public liability can cover accidents involving clients or members of the public. This includes injuries or property damage that happen in your clinic, treatment room, or mobile setup.
Products Liability Cover
Products liability can provide protection if a product used during treatment causes a reaction or injury. This can apply to creams, serums, or other tools used with the plasma pen.
Legal Expenses Cover
This can help with the cost of defending a claim. If a client takes legal action, legal expenses cover can support you with professional advice and legal fees.
Every aesthetic business is different. The right insurance can be tailored to match your setup, whether you’re clinic-based, mobile, or renting a space.
Who Needs Plasma Pen Insurance?
Having dedicated insurance is crucial if you’re performing plasma pen treatments for skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, or scar improvement. This can include:
- Aesthetic nurses
- Beauty therapists with advanced qualifications
- Skin specialists
- Clinic owners employing plasma pen practitioners
- Freelance or mobile technicians
Every professional working with plasma technology to stimulate skin cell regeneration and collagen production should ensure they have appropriate protection in place before treating clients.

Do I need specific insurance for a plasma pen if I already have general beauty insurance?
Yes, you typically need specific cover for plasma pen treatments. Many general beauty policies don’t include advanced treatments like the plasma pen, as they work on deeper dermal layers and stimulate fibroblasts. These procedures carry different risks, so a specialist policy gives better protection.
Can I perform plasma pen treatments on all skin types safely?
This is an important consideration for your practice and insurance. Plasma pen treatments may not be suitable for all skin types. Doing proper client assessments and keeping clear records can help reduce risks.
What qualifications do I need to get insured for plasma pen treatments?
You need to complete recognised training in plasma pen and fibroblast therapy. Most insurers ask for certificates from approved training providers, along with proof of your beauty or aesthetics qualification. Your qualifications will be reviewed to check that they meet the requirements for the cover.
