Founded in 2018 by Fiona Ross, a registered nurse, The Aesthetics Club has quickly established a strong reputation for excellence, experiencing a 100+% increase in business across its existing Glasgow and London clinics since 2021, attracting over 7,000 registered customers.
The loan will enable the opening of two new clinics located in Glasgow and Edinburgh, expanding services and creating a number of new jobs.
We are thrilled to receive this investment to support our expansion plans. Our significant growth, loyal customer base and high wait lists demonstrate the demand for our services but securing funding based on future sales can be particularly challenging for smaller businesses. We are delighted FSE’s projection-led approach means we can access this much-needed funding source from the IFS. - Fiona Ross Founder, The Aesthetics Club
