Private Equity in Aesthetic Medicine: Key Insights with Stuart Smith

“Where deals fall through, is when there is a failure to integrate.”

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Stuart Smith, who has over 25 years of experience in investment banking, private equity, and mergers & acquisitions. Stuart brings strategic insights to the conversation for anyone considering private equity. Not only does he have a passion for helping business owners, but also being there as support to navigate complex transitions.

Our conversation evolved on the growing role of private equity in the aesthetic space, and Stuart shares his framework: “Three Basic Food Groups” that every business owner should consider and be able to answer these questions below.

Is the business ready for a transition?
Do you have the right advisors?
Can you handle the deal?

Whether you’re thinking about scaling, selling, or partnering, this episode is a must-listen. Personally, I found Stuart as well as other colleagues to be extremely helpful during my own transition. I look forward to sharing this episode with you.
