The opportunity
A large, unfilled demand in UK skin healthcare
Diamond Skin Care was created to spread specialist-led dermatology care beyond the conventional NHS and private insurance routes. Self-paying patients access not only NHS treatments, but also high-demand medications and treatment programmes no longer funded by the NHS or unavailable in conventional private hospitals.
Access to treatment
Nearly half of all patients who visit their GP for a skin complaint — 7 million every year — need onward referral for specialist medication or treatment.
Increasing demand
The rate of skin cancer in the UK has more than doubled since the 1990s.
Increasing awareness
More young professionals and older people bypass NHS or GP appointments and seek private skin treatment for speed and convenience.
The solution
Why Diamond Skin Care?
A proven clinical model, a national support engine and a market with no direct franchise competition.
Low competition
The first and only clinical dermatology franchise in the UK.
Unique service model
Proprietary treatment programme packages create monthly and annual recurring revenue, alongside single-attendance high-margin procedures.

Low start-up cost
Ready-made website, a trained central sales team handling your clients, and CQC registration provided.
Unprecedented clinical support
Clinical training to replicate services to a high standard, weekly clinical meetings open to all centres, an open clinical Slack channel and shared clinical records software.

Excellent care from the guys at Diamond Skin Care. Very reassuring, quick and put me at ease through the whole experience. Appreciate all they have done for me and would recommend to anyone.
Can't praise the staff enough from start to finish. Highly professional, discussed everything and various options. Communication excellent. Would highly recommend.
I had a brilliant experience at Diamond Skin Care. The process was so easy, from the booking, to the pre-treatment telephone call to the procedure itself. The staff were all so friendly, professional and efficient.
A perfect experience from start to finish. I was kept informed at every step of my procedure, pleasant friendly staff made for a relaxed atmosphere. I thoroughly recommend Diamond Skin Care.
