Scarring from an accident can be permanent, painful, and deeply distressing — especially when it affects visible areas such as the face, neck, or hands. Whether caused by a burn, laceration, or surgery following trauma, scarring injuries often lead to both physical and emotional suffering.

If you’ve been left with permanent or disfiguring scars as a result of someone else’s negligence, I can help you claim compensation. At Inson Legal, I support clients in Bolton and across Greater Manchester, offering No Win No Fee representation to help you move forward.

Common causes of Scarring Injuries

Scars can result from a wide range of accidents and incidents, including:

• Road traffic accidents, particularly where glass or friction causes cuts or burns

• Workplace accidents, involving machinery, tools, or hazardous substances

• Burn injuries from fire, hot liquids, chemicals, or electricity

• Dog bites or animal attacks

• Surgical scars following treatment for injury or infection

• Violent assaults causing facial injuries or lacerations

If your injury was caused by the negligence of an employer, another driver, a business, or another individual, you may have a valid claim for compensation.

Types of Scarring and their effects

Scarring varies in severity and can include:

• Superficial scars that may fade over time

• Hypertrophic or keloid scars, which are raised and may be painful or itchy

• Facial disfigurement, often resulting in significant psychological trauma

• Contracture scars from burns, which can restrict movement

Scarring can affect self-esteem, confidence, social life, and mental health. You may also suffer practical limitations, such as restricted mobility or sensitivity to sunlight.

Compensation for Scarring Injuries

Compensation takes into account several factors, including:

• Severity and location of the scar

• Psychological impact, including anxiety, depression, or embarrassment

• Need for cosmetic surgery or skin grafts

• Pain, suffering, and loss of amenity

• Loss of earnings or impact on career prospects

• Future treatment costs (e.g. laser therapy, revision surgery, counselling)

I work with medical experts, including Consultants in Pain, neuro-surgeons and plastic surgeons, to accurately assess the extent of your injury and its long-term consequences.
