SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated acquired MB career lounge, a provider of management support services for medical institutions in Japan. The acquisition includes JUN CLINIC, a network of clinics offering aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery services. The deal expands SBC Medical's clinic network, diversifies its services, and strengthens its competitive position in the growing Japanese aesthetic medicine market.

SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated (Nasdaq: SBC) has announced the acquisition of MB career lounge, Co., Ltd., a privately-held provider of management support services for medical institutions in Japan. The transaction includes the integration of JUN CLINIC, a network of clinics offering aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery services. This acquisition aims to expand SBC Medical's clinic network, diversify its services, and strengthen its competitive position in the growing Japanese aesthetic medicine market.

The acquisition took place on July 17, 2025, through a share purchase transaction for cash consideration. The deal is expected to contribute to portfolio diversification and enhance revenue stability for SBC Medical. JUN CLINIC, operated by Medical Corporation Misakikai and supported by MB career lounge, will join SBC Medical’s clinic network, bringing with it a robust and scalable business model.

"The surging demand for personalized aesthetic solutions, particularly 'Customized Laser Treatment,' underscores a rapidly expanding market," said Yoshiyuki Aikawa, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of SBC Medical. "JUN CLINIC's proven success in diverse environments, from the developing regional market of Nagano to the highly competitive urban centers of Ginza and Shirokane, demonstrates a business model poised for nationwide expansion. By combining our strengths with MB career lounge and JUN CLINIC, we will strengthen our portfolio of aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery services, enhancing our ability to serve our customers more effectively and further positioning the Company to capitalize on the growing demand for high-quality aesthetic medical services."

Japan’s aesthetic medicine market reached ¥631 billion in 2024, representing year-over-year growth of 6.2%, and is expected to continue its steady expansion [1]. This acquisition enables SBC Medical to accelerate regional expansion, broaden its customer base, and strengthen its business model by reducing reliance on any single procedure or geography.

Looking ahead, SBC Medical will continue to pursue strategic acquisitions and partnerships with high-quality medical institutions to support long-term growth and drive greater corporate value within the healthcare industry.
