Los Angeles Nail Salon Injuries Lawyer

Many people in Los Angeles go to nail salons for proper care of their nails.  The most common services provided at a LA nail salon include manicures, pedicures, massages, finger-nail and toe-nail painting, and whirlpool footspas.  Although injuries at nail salons are generally very minor, some types of injuries may result in serious injuries and even death.

First, to minimize your chances of contracting a disease at a nail salon, you should inform your manicurist or cosmetologist before receiving your manicure or pedicure services if you are a diabetic, you have a peripheral vascular disease including arteriosclerosis, if you are on any blood-thinning medication, including those people who take daily doses of aspirin.  Additionally, nail salon injuries such as infections or gangrene, which may result in the amputation of your finger or toe can result if you have any cracks or fissures in the nail.

If you notice that the skin around your nail is very painful, inflamed or red - it is very important that you seek immediate medical attention.  Any delay in seeking medical attention may result in your nail salon injuries quickly escalating to a more serious injury.  Additionally, if you use artificial nails, you should have them immediately removed if you notice that any part of your nail appears black or green as this may indicate an area under the artificial nail where bacteria or dirt is growing.  Failure to quickly remove these artificial nails may result in the loss of your finger or toe.  Lastly, any manicures or pedicures you receive should not be painful.  If you find that any procedures performed at the nail salon are painful which ultimately results in a nail salon injury, such as the amputation of your finger, please contact our attorneys who will be able to assist you in recovering compensation.
