Why Launch
YOUR
Own Brand Skincare
Online discounters and skincare manufacturers have moved aggressively into skincare over the last decade.
Many mainstream manufacturers use you, the professional, as a route to market to introduce THEIR products to YOUR patients.
You know your patients’ skin better than anyone and you know the right ingredients to treat them.
So why build someone else’s brand when you could be building your own?
Increase business revenue or gain additional income by selling the products your clients need.
Increase
Revenue & Growth
Stand out from your competitors and offer products that your patients cannot get elsewhere. Your patients trust you with their skincare needs so they will trust your products too – they won’t be able to find your brand at a lower price elsewhere.
Improved
Patient Retention
Increase patient recruitment through local media coverage, social media activity and word-of-mouth recommendations.
Powerful
Marketing Tool
Pricing is set by you in relation to your brand’s value. This means better profit margins compared to selling mainstream manufacturers’ brands or investing in manufacturing your own products.
Protected
Margins
Make more profit from each patient transaction by selling products that complement your treatments. Easily upsell your own products to patients who value your experience and knowledge of their skin.
Easy
Upsell
Creating
YOUR
Brand Skincare

All packages include branding development, label design, brand registration & certification, point of sale display stand, patient information leaflets and social media support.

An off-the-shelf solution offering a low-cost, low-risk route to launching your own brand skincare range. We have 23+ pre-formulated high-strength products with starting packages from £995+VAT.
For clients who want something a little more bespoke, you can select any of our 23+ formulations and launch them in the packaging of your choice from as little as £1,495+VAT.
