Undesired hair is a problem for over 80% of women and more than 50% of men. The hair removal technique using Intense Pulsed Light is one of the most successful and efficient depilatory methods, for permanently reducing unwanted hair.

Intensed Pulse Light Treatment (IPL) was initially reserved to an exclusive few, due to the prohibitive cost of the treatment, however DepiCool uniquely offers a low cost option within the industry, with the aim that anyone could afford IPL regardless of their level of income! Thus enhancing the purchasing power of the consumer and the profit margin of the franchisee.

DepiCool are specialists in permanent hair reduction using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments at the revolutionary budget price of £49.00 flat rate, per area. With several years’ experience in running centres DepiCool has created a business which enables our franchisees to put a successful DepiCool store into operation quickly.



We offer a complete package which gets a new centre up & running as quickly as possible, while still ensuring quality and high standards.  We can support you with: equipment, interior design, treatment protocols & training, franchise manual, operational & marketing support, and Care Quality Commission (CQC) registration.

MD, Alexandre Tcheng says, “We have invested a lot of time in to making our franchise offer a business which can work straight ‘out of the box’. Our operating template has been proven, via our own experience, to provide a basis for building a successful business with significantly less risk than most new ventures.”

At DepiCool we pride ourselves on offering the highest quality standards, one of our commitments is to ensure that all of our UK centres are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) (For more information: www.cqc.org.uk). This is the same registration that is undertaken at many of the well known Harley Street Clinics.  Registering our centres with the CQC enables us to offer the best price-quality relationship within the industry, especially in comparison to those centres in Harley Street.

DepiCool has already established a strong presence in London and the surrounding areas, and in 2010, we are expecting to open in all major UK cities, due to the expressions of interest and the commitments we have already secured for our unique franchise opportunity.

DepiCool offers two levels ofentry and provides a complete package, for both levels which includes:
  • All the necessary equipment
  • Training
  • Logistics
  • Marketing support
 

1. Investors/Entrepreneurs

A fantastic opportunity for any individual or business, wanting to open, manage and develop a highly profitable business taking advantage of DepiCool’s experience in the industry with full support.

No previous experience is necessary and there is no legal restriction to owning a permanent hair removal centre. People assume that only a dermatologist or plastic surgeon can own a permanent hair reduction practice - this is not the case, the majority of our franchisees have no previous experience. Our operational processes enable us to run a centre with just one individual, so no need for the business owner to be present at the centre at all times, making it possible for franchisees to open more than one centre!


2. Self-Employed Owner-Operators

If you are looking for personal and professional freedom from your current employer, then the DepiCool Franchise is the perfect opportunity.

To operate under the self-employed model NO previous experience in beauty therapy is required. 




We have designed a bespoke package of services which cover all of the different areas required to launch your new business enabling you to open a permanent hair reduction centre in a short period of time:

  • Identifying appropriate insurances.
  • Help finding the right premises, lease negotiation.
