Commenting on the importance of gaining insurance with a specialist provider such as ABT, Electrolysis expert and author on the subject, Gill Morris, says:

“I'm delighted that in ABT we have insurance cover available with a company which has such a knowledgeable team; particularly about blemish removal (as well as electrolysis for hair removal) as unfortunately that is often not the case.  I know a number of people insured with them, including my daughter, and all report ABT know what they are talking about and I see the peace of mind this gives to practitioners so am happy to recommend them.”

Penny Turvey, expert in Electrolysis for hair removal and blemish treatments, adds:

"ABT have been my insurance company for many years. They cover me for electrolysis hair removal and Advanced Cosmetic Procedures. They are also the accreditation company for my training courses. I have always been extremely happy with the service I receive. They are prompt at taking my calls, thorough in providing any information I require and understand the nature of both my businesses. This is reassuring and refreshing as it gives me confidence that I am dealing with a company which cares for me as their customer, takes the time to know what I need from them and are very competitively priced with their insurance packages.  Whenever I am asked about insurance companies I never have any hesitation in recommending ABT.”
