Preface
With this document, we intend to present a business plan for the company Full Face
Aesthetics, a modern aesthetic clinic, planned to be located in Dubai.
The main points of the business plan are summarized in the Executive Summary, which will be
then developed throughout the document.
Based on the experience of the promoters, who held already other beautician clinics in
Portugal, we believe this is an extra asset for the successes of this new business initiative.
Executive summary
With this business plan, we intend to present an opportunity with an offer completely different
regarding what currently exists in the Dubai market, regarding aesthetical cares. This business
opportunity is justified not only by the lack of suppliers that the region offers but as well by the
lack of marketing in this area.
Thus, the strength of this business idea , is based not only on the lack of supply of this kind of
care in Dubai, but also by young entrepreneurship, in wanting to promote personalized service
in the region.
With the experienced promoters, managing the beautician centres, the goal is to make a clear
difference in the market, offering a personalized service, with a higher quality service,
targeting high-level customers.
Taking into account the investment in specifical equipment, as the Fotona and Ultraformer
technologies and unique cosmetics products, as MScosmetics products ranges, the
implementation of this business needs a strong financial investment as well as strong
management skills.
The services offered by the company, gives shape to its added value and the unique proposal
that does not exist yet in this market: providing a personalized and modern solution from
beginning to end, centred in a single space a series of resources that bring an unique
experience to the customer.
3
In this way it is assumed as a business model directed to a specific target, such as the high-
level people living in Dubai. A better description on our target.
We developed our business plan based on the specific methodologies below so that a good
cleaning and ironing service can be carried out, fitting all the needs of this type of demand in
the different services that we seek to guarantee for the company's offer. We have also
established a transparent price list that allows the customer to always know how much he will
pay for the services, while also facilitating the management of this entire process. However,
care must be taken to ensure that the company is financially functioning so that it can assume
its commitments in a responsible manner and with the utmost consideration for suppliers.
Thus, a particular emphasis is placed on receipts and payments that will make the treasury
more robust and able to face the challenges.
We thus proceed to the presentation and development of the chapters that make up this
business plan, which we hope will meet the expectations that we place on it.

1.2 Tasks and responsibilities
Each business area will be directly held by the promoters, based on their specialities and
experiences, as described below:
2. Services
For an easier understanding, and as we are speaking about technical and medical treatments,
we divided all cares in two big categories, regarding the face and the body. Most of the
treatment are also based on the modern equipment that the clinic plan to acquire. Those
equipment (based on technologies as laser and ultrasound) are the most modern ones, and
make all the difference regarding the results . Also i tis important to bring to our customers the
fanciest cares, showing that Full Face Aesthetics is the astonishing one.
The treatments that are mostly used, with the best results, and all available in our clinics
- Injectable dermal filler – hyaluronic acid
- Botulinic Toxin (Botox)
- Collagen biostimulators (Radiesse and Scpultra)
- Fotona - laser treatments
- Ultraformer - ultrasound treatments
- Oxygen treatment
- Face cryotherapy
- Led therapy
- Criofrequecy
8
Not only those treatments are what is most modern on what is been done, but it’s the capacity
to join several kind of treatment that can offer the best results. This is one of the main key
factor on what the marketing of the clinic will support on.
The price of each treatment range from 500$ to 3500$, but it is the combination of different
cares that allow to have astonishing results. Also, by experience, each customer chose to make
a treatment which is in general around 2000$ per treatment (in a range to 4 to 5 sessions for
each treatment).
Treatments regarding the body focus of the kind of problem of each one, regarding fallacy,
localized fat or cellulite.
Also, here the treatments are generally a mix between laser, ultrasound, biostimulators, and
supplements. All those methods are also named as body shaping.
The knowledge of how to mix those treatments is essential for a good result. Prices of each
treatment, but by experience, each patient spend around 2000$ per treatment (generally
between 5 to 8 sessions)

3. Market analysis
3.1.Customer focus
Full Face Aesthetics want to focus on the luxury market, and Dubai is one of the richest city in
the world. The average person living in UAE has net assets of 99.000$, which is well above the
worldwide average. On top of those figures, already amazing ones, there is approximately
88700 persons living with more than 1 million in net assets.
Also Dubai population (almost 3 millions) is growing 10% per year, and 65% have between 25
and 54 years old, which is the ages when the people are worrying about the aging effects. Also,
with a growing Western community and the influence of medias and social network,
appearance turn to be a must-do matter, and there is no more shame to follow anti-aging or
aesthetical treatments. Beauty ideals portrayed in the media are often considered the
inspiration for women in the Arab world, so that good looks are high on the agenda as an
important source of pride.
The idea that the clinic takes the name of Full Face Aesthetics is also related with the idea to
make touch a kind of population where the body, as less exposed by different culture, is not so
important as the face.
On that point, the total number of cosmetic procedures performed on women still continues
to outnumber those of men; however, in the Middle East, there appears to be a significant
upsurge in the number of men seeking cosmetic procedures, and some reports suggest that
the number of men compared to women may be relatively equivalent.
The increase in the United Arab Emirates population, 14 percent growth rate in the last period
2008-2012, will be the fundamental driver of demand for healthcare goods and beauty
services. To note that the UAE healthcare and wellness ambition and long-term strategy is to
become a preferred destination for domestic patients and a hub for global medical tourists
seeking high quality and cost-effective procedures and treatments.
Despite a trend to follow the pattern of beauty shown up by the media, some specific health
factors in Dubai, as sedentary life, obesity and tobacco influences in the bad way the
appearance of this population may increase also the demand for aesthetic treatments
But the main point is really to focus on the highest social class, both local or expat, and to offer
treatments that are not yet present or so present in the actual market.
10
3.2 Service procurement
Regarding the kind of aesthetic treatments that are mostly demanded in UAE, we can find
liposuction, abdominoplasty, breast reduction, breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and facial
rejuvenation for women. For men, facial rejuvenation, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, liposuction
and tommy tuck are really researched.
But when entering in the non-chirurgical procedures, which is the core-busines of our clinic,
the most wanted cares are Botox cares, filling procedures, laser hair removals,
microdermabrasion and radiofrequency. All those services are part of the offer of our clinic, as
the promoters, by their long experience, knows exactly the market trends.
The increase of the demand in aesticls cares in Dubai, where in general the demand is much
stronger than the offer, has pushed the price to level never reached in any market. Recent
market screenings shows that on the most common treatments prices are between 20% to
30% higher than in European markets. And this for normal services, knowing that the gap is
even higher in the top or luxury market.
Thus, the aim goal of our clinic is to level up the fares, but also the quality service and
uniqueness of the offer.
As promoters, it is really important to highlight the difference between the actual offer existing
in Dubai and our new offer. The main points that will be different:
- the special and UpToDate program created for the face treatments, based on a mix of
the use of the equipment (Fotona and Ultraformer) and knowledge and experience of the
team
- exclusivity on a brand for dietary supplements, with remarkable results on body
shaping and fat burning
11
- a strategical and personalized marketing for high standard level people, based on
fame, luxury and exclusivity.
- a top-notch service in all communication with the customers, making him feeling
exceptional and unique.
All those elements, combined together, are the key for the success, turning Full Face
Aesthetics as the most obvious choice.
Some of the challenges that the new clinic will face can also be transformed in strength by the
experience of the team management:
- Difficulties to find and retain the best professionals: for that reason, the 3 promoters
will also work in the clinic. For the other workers (check section about labour team), a
right commissioning for their commercial effort are some of the ways used to retain
the best professionals.
- Quality and standardisation of the services: in this case, all the knowledge acquired by
the management team also revert on their favour as their experience with clear
customer process is making the difference on the patient experience.
4. Marketing strategy
All the marketing strategy is based in wording as glamour, luxury, uniqueness, “a la page”
service, modern treatments, upfront knowledge.
The communication will be held thru social media (93% of Dubai inhabitants use social media),
and mostly supported by special offers to influencers in order to promote treatments, special
offers, packaging promotion, and unique disclosure regarding the results brought by those
treatments.
On that way, we forecast a website with direct communication (direct chat, whatsapp ) and
an remarkable presence in social media, as Instagram, Facebook and others.
On top of the investment in the beginning, a constant updates with a media agency is
necessary to publish all the news, pictures and buzzes. Also a monthly spending in Adwords is
compulsory, as normal google searches continues to be one of the most common tools form
customers.
12
5. Installation
The idea is to rent a space in one of the best location in Dubai. For the moment, promoters
didn’t find yet any space that can fit with our standards, but the ai mis to rent a 1250 sq.ft.
space, expecting a renting fare of 55 300$ per year.
Normal conditions should require, as air-conditioning system, security equipment, and other
simple conditions as per an office. No refurbishment works or special needs are required for
this kind of clinic.

7. Turn-over
As explained, treatments are divided in faces treatments and body treatments. Pricing for each
threatment are customized regarding each customer, and in order to make the business plan
readable, average turn-over per customer is used. By experience, this amount is 2000$ per
complete treatment.
The projection for the first year are 180 treatments per each category, and then an increase of
7,5% in the second year, 10% on the year, and 2% on the following ones.
To take in consideration that the costs of the material as botox, acids and others act for 20% of
the total amount invoiced. This percentage is more or less equivalent even when the
treatment are not similar.
Within this premises, the first year will present a turn-over of 90000$, growing till 1198518$ in
the 5ht year:

As the chart is quite explicit as the nature of the expenses, we do not need to explain further
about it, remembering that we foresee a growth rate equal to the volume of business.
Although we think that this rate is a bit exaggerated, it also allows us to create a safety margin
for small unexpected expenses.
