Uk Expat Brings Home The Aussie Makeover - Franchise Set To Soar

June 17, 2012 - PRLog -- An English entrepreneur who left her home to start a new life in Australia is now set to build her franchise, dubbed 'The Robin Hood of Cosmetic Procedures' on home soil. The Botox and laser clinics have stimulated competition in the Australian cosmetic medical industry with treatments typically 40 - 60% less than  competitors and Deb Farnworth-Wood is now setting her sights on an ambitious roll-plan in the UK.

Interestingly, a recent survey showed a high percentage of people fear aging more than death. Men and women in various age group were interviewed and showed most people under 20 believed they are invincible to ageing (no surprises there), whereas most women in the 20 to 30 age group said they dreaded the approach of visible signs of ageing. More than 80% of women aged 30 to 40 years have considered some form of surgical or non-surgical enhancement. Deb says "this is the sort of feedback we have been seeing for years and strongly indicates that cosmetic procedures are no longer reserved for the rich and famous, especially when treatments have become so affordable and accessible".

The launch site for the Aussie cosmetic franchise will be Bristol, and will keep its name 'Australian Skin Clinics'. "Our own research showed that people in the UK actually preferred the name, perhaps due to the close ties between the UK and Australia. We are evaluating a number of proposals for UK Master Franchise territories, but as yet we have not awarded the contract", said Farnworth-Wood.
