In today’s modern world, the desire to improve appearance is increasing day by day, making investment in Aesthetic clinics one of the most profitable businesses in Iran. However, what is the minimum capital required to establish an Aesthetic clinic? The amount of capital needed is influenced by many factors, which will be generally reviewed below. If you are also looking to establish your own Aesthetic clinic, we recommend that you stay with us until the end.
Renting or Purchasing Property
One of the main costs when establishing an Aesthetic clinic is renting or purchasing property. Depending on the location where you intend to establish your clinic, the size of the property, the clinic building, etc., the cost of rent or purchase can vary significantly.
Choosing the right location for your Aesthetic clinic directly impacts the number of customers and your income. For more information on selecting a suitable location, you can refer to the article on choosing the right location for an Aesthetic clinic.
Interior Design and Decoration
When opening an Aesthetic clinic, having a beautiful and pleasant space that reflects the quality of services provided is very important. Thus, depending on the clinic building, renovations and interior design may be necessary, incurring significant costs.
In addition to renovation costs, you should also budget for furniture and necessary equipment for the Aesthetic clinic. The cost of purchasing furniture and other needed equipment varies greatly depending on the style and quality of the products.

Purchasing Equipment
One of the significant costs for opening an Aesthetic clinic is purchasing the necessary equipment. The price of equipment used in Aesthetic clinics varies based on the brand, features, quality, and more. Investing in high-quality equipment is crucial as these devices generally have fewer side effects and ensure better results, leading to customer satisfaction and increased revenue.
It should also be considered that due to the increasing demand for beauty services, different equipment should be purchased according to the needs of the area’s population and the clinic’s plan. A small clinic may need two to three devices, while a larger clinic may require more than ten devices, which can be quite costly for the founder.
Advertising and Marketing
When launching an Aesthetic clinic, advertising and marketing costs to attract new customers and retain old ones are very important. The costs associated with advertising vary widely, depending on the methods you use to promote your Aesthetic clinic.
Aesthetic clinics can use a wide range of marketing strategies to reach their target audience. One of the most effective advertising methods is through social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. These platforms allow clinics to showcase their work and attract many customers through advertising campaigns. This method is considered one of the most cost-effective advertising methods. However, in today’s highly competitive world, advertising has become more necessary than ever, and you must spend a reasonable amount monthly on advertising for your Aesthetic clinic’s success.

Legal and Licensing Costs
There are specific legal costs that the owner of an Aesthetic clinic must consider before establishing the clinic. For example:
- Registering the Aesthetic clinic
- Insurance
- Obtaining licenses
- …
These costs are essential for establishing an Aesthetic clinic and cannot be ignored. However, depending on the services offered, the number of employees, and other factors, these costs can vary.
Hiring and Training Staff
One of the most important factors influencing the success of an Aesthetic clinic is the staff. Hiring and training costs can vary depending on factors like location, job position, and experience level. Another factor affecting hiring costs is the number of employees working in the Aesthetic clinic.
Trained and experienced staff can enhance the clinic’s value by providing exceptional services to clients, leading to positive reviews and referrals. Staff training can be done through educational courses or webinars. Typically, training programs are not very expensive but can significantly increase your revenue in the long term.
Purchasing and Setting Up Computer Systems and Software
Another cost to consider is purchasing and setting up computer systems and software. This cost may include buying computers, laptops, fax machines, printers, and more.
In addition to the costs of purchasing the mentioned devices, a separate budget must be allocated for purchasing necessary software for the Aesthetic clinic. This cost may include buying VPNs, antivirus software, and software updates.
Utility Bills
Utility costs for water, electricity, gas, internet, and more are unavoidable. When setting up an Aesthetic clinic, these may not be at the top of your budget list, but they can become significant over time.
