Aesthetic Clinic profit Margins - How do You Compare?

In this brief video, we explore UK aesthetic clinic profitability — how average gross and operating profit margins have changed over the past 17 years, and how your clinic compares to national benchmarks.

Using insights from the respected Merlin Scott Associates report, I share what’s driving financial performance in the aesthetics industry — including rising costs, changing treatment menus, and surprising margin trends.

We also break down real numbers from Thérapie Clinic, the UK’s largest chain, and uncover why 24% of clinics are facing financial difficulties. These stats reflect a broader truth seen across industries: the majority of businesses don’t hit their financial goals — but those who do? They master their numbers.
