Justification
Objectively - market
The global market for aesthetic medicine continues to grow at an average of 13% per year, which puts it in the fast growing and developing category. The market for these services in Ukraine is growing annually by at least 20%. It is safe to say that half of the adult population of Ukraine uses the services of the beauty industry. According to Comcon-Pharma, 41% of Ukrainians can afford to visit beauty salons once every two to three months. Every third - monthly. In addition, if before visiting beauty salons and aesthetic surgery clinics was a woman's prerogative, now the demand for such services among men has grown significantly - their share in the total number of clients has reached almost 30%.
Goods and services in this category will always be in demand, and a business that is turned into profit will provide opportunities for further growth and development.
Subjective - experience and competence of the project organizers

- an active base of clients, distributors, contract manufacturers, opinion leaders, necessary employees and other partners accumulated over 10 years
- deep knowledge of markets and understanding of all the specifics and details of working on them: ways of organizing sales, promotion, regulatory requirements, financial and legal nuances
- current developments allowing to start not from the very "zero" and develop the project as quickly as possible
Economy - basic figures $
To launch a full-fledged brand in Ukraine, you need from 100 to 200 US dollars, depending on the scale and market strategy, the investor's capabilities and the expected rate of return. 70% of investments will be required during the first 3-6 months, the rest - to cover operating costs during the break-even period.
The terms for reaching the break-even point are 1-1.5 years, the return on investment is 3 years. Reinvesting profits in the development of international sales (as an option) will significantly increase the scale of the business, brand capitalization and the rate of return as a result.
