Case Study: Cost- Effective Solutions for Aesthetic Treatment
As IPL hair removal demand accelerated, an aesthetic treatment provider rapidly scaled services across multiple countries.
With growth came a critical challenge: conductive gel costs- the largest operational cost. Consuming nearly a few tons per quarter, imported branded gels were prohibitively expensive, while low-cost alternatives compromised comfort and performance.
How We Helped
CHAKS conducted a deep technical analysis of the IPL equipment and treatment protocols to define the gel’s true performance requirements.
Rather than modifying a standard formulation, CHAKS’ R&D team re-engineered the system from first principles, focusing only on essential parameters: viscosity, lubricity, and heat conductivity.
By creating a minimalist, using only essential design elements, we delivered superior patient comfort, enhanced treatment efficiency, and a significant reduction in cost.
The solution exceeded performance expectations, surpassed cost targets, enabling rollout across more than 16 countries with an exclusive supply agreement.
