Cosmetic surgeons: Apply for Finance

Cosmetic Finance

As you start your cosmetic surgery clinic and as your surgery grows, you are most likely going to need to borrow the money to purchase new equipment, to extend a current surgery, or to buy more cosmetic surgeon clinics and build a group. No matter what you need it for, we can make sure you get the right finance for your plastic surgery business. 

When you are seeking a loan to buy, start or grow a cosmetic surgery, banks and lenders will look at your personal finance history to help them ascertain whether you will be a secure and reliable client that can repay the loan.

If you do not currently own a cosmetic surgery, your personal circumstances are one of the information sources that lenders will have to assess your ability to manage a surgery when you acquire one.

Our in-house finance brokers are all former bankers, with extensive experience in the UK’s healthcare lending sector. We know what the banks are looking for, we know how to get your application right and we know how to find the best commercial finance deals out there for cosmetic surgeons.

What will financial lenders look at and assess?

  • Management of personal finances.
  • Living situation of the applicant. Is the accommodation rented or owned?
  • Career in medicine and level of management experience.
  • Ability to repay any loan that is provided.
  • Any personal savings that are in place. Showing a propensity to save rather than make rash purchases is an indication of being low risk for lending.
  • Evidence that tax payments are up to date.
  • The personality and character of the applicant.

Step 1:
Review your personal income and expenditure

The first step is to review your personal income and expenditure – look at it from an outside perspective, and consider what others would think about you when looking at your expenditure.

Make sure that you have a breakdown of your debt repayment schedule, showing all your payments, what they are for and who they are going to. Is it all a car loan or made up of some car loan and some professional qualification costs?

Step 2:
Obtain your Bank statements and look at your account conduct

The second step is to obtain your bank statements and look at your bank account conduct. Do you stay in credit or within the overdraft limit? Are there any times when your finances get really stretched and if so, can you do anything about this?

Step 3:
Obtain your Credit Score

Thirdly, obtain your credit score for free and make sure that it is correct. Check there is nothing on there you were not aware of, as credit scoring companies do often make mistakes.

Step 4:
Consider your partner’s financial background

Make sure your partner’s financial health is strong too. If borrowing in joint names you will both have an examination of your financial status.

Step 5:
Use an experienced Commercial Finance Broker

Utilise the skills of an experienced commercial finance broker such as Samera to help you raise the finance. Our team are experts in helping cosmetic surgeons get finance and business loans for their practice acquisition.

Our specialist finance brokers will be able to guide you through the process to ensure you put in the strongest application to the banks and lenders to obtain the best available deals on the market.

What finance options are there for cosmetic surgeons?

There are several options out there for cosmetic surgeons looking to raise finance. Which one is best for you will depend on what you need the finance for and your ability to repay it. The loan terms like repayment scheduling, whether it is secured or unsecured and who you borrow from will vary case by case. 

Our team can make sure you apply for the right finance for your cosmetic surgery, and that you have the best chance of it being successful when you do.

Acquisition Finance

It’s unlikely that you’ll be able to buy a plastic surgery clinic with your own money. You’ll almost certainly need to borrow at least some acquisition finance to make the purchase. The amount you need to borrow and how long it takes to pay back will depend on the value of the cosmetic surgery, your own financial situation and how much value you can add to the business, amongst a whole host of other things. We’ve helped countless cosmetic surgeons raise acquisition finance for a business purchase, we know what they’re really worth, what loan terms suit you and how to get it. 

Asset Finance

Equipping and maintaining a cosmetic surgery is expensive. Your working capital will usually take less of a hit if you spread the cost out over a loan repayment, rather than one lump sum. With our buying group, the Samera Alliance, we not only help you raise asset finance, we can get you exclusive discounts and offers on your consumables and equipment. 

Commercial Mortgages

We were finalists in the NACFB Commercial Mortgage Broker of the Year Awards 2021. Our in-house commercial mortgage brokers are experts at helping cosmetic surgeons purchase the property they need to start or grow their business.

Tax Loans

Instead of saving your income and paying your tax bill in individual lump sums, it is sometimes easier to spread the cost over the year with a tax loan. Our specialist accountants can help reduce your tax bill, while our finance brokers source the money to pay it.
