Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take a medical spa to break even?
Most new medical spas break even within 18–36 months once treatment room utilization reaches 55%+ and a recurring injectable patient base builds. Strong digital marketing and a medical director partnership accelerate the ramp.
How do I calculate my medical spa's break-even point?
Divide your monthly fixed costs by your contribution margin (1 minus variable cost %). That gives the monthly revenue your medical spa needs; dividing by average treatment value gives the number of treatments to break even.
