SBC Medical Group and Daibi Medical Aesthetics Form Strategic Alliance

On February 1, 2026, SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated has announced a significant strategic partnership with Daibi Medical Aesthetics, based in Shanghai, China. This collaboration marks a pivotal step in enhancing the services offered at Daibi Medical and aims to elevate the recognition of the Shonan Beauty Clinic brand in China. The alliance focuses on sharing expertise and operational strategies cultivated through years of experience in aesthetic medicine.

Understanding the Alliance's Goals

The primary objective of the partnership is to enhance the quality of medical aesthetic services at Daibi Medical Aesthetics. This will be achieved by leveraging Nasukai’s clinical knowledge and customer-focused practices. The collaboration is expected to improve the brand's safety protocols and showcase the advanced medical technologies that the Shonan Beauty Clinic is known for.

This partnership not only serves as a crucial step for Shonan Beauty Clinic to expand its brand awareness within the populous regions of China, but also allows for a better understanding of the Chinese medical landscape and customer preferences.

As part of the strategy, the physicians affiliated with Nasukai are set to integrate into Daibi’s clinical framework, sharing knowledge regarding medical safety, clinic operations, and consultation practices. Both organizations will explore opportunities for bilateral professional exchange in the aesthetic medicine domain, fostering a closer relationship between Japan and China.

A Growing Market for Medical Tourism

This alliance comes at a time when the global medical tourism market is gaining momentum. According to a forecast by Fortune Business Insights, the market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.0%, potentially reaching around USD 62.18 billion by 2032. The increasing interest in international medical travel highlights the appeal of Japanese aesthetic medicine known for its rigorous safety standards and advanced technologies.

Inbound visits to the Shonan Beauty Clinic have shown remarkable growth, escalating from about 600 customers in early 2024 to approximately 1,700 by the close of 2025. To cater to this rising influx of customers seeking aesthetic medical services, Shonan Beauty Clinic has also improved its infrastructure for international patients, such as implementing Chinese-language translation tools and revamping its bilingual official websites.

Enhancements and Future Plans

The new alliance is designed not just to facilitate a seamless experience for patients; it aims to establish a consistent focus on quality in aesthetic services across both institutions. By understanding the preferences and expectations of customers in China, the partnership will enhance the overall journey from initial inquiry to post-treatment follow-up.

Daibi Medical Aesthetics, which opened in 2022 in Shanghai's North Bund area, spans approximately 2,200 square meters and caters to community-based medical aesthetic needs. The incorporation of knowledge from Nasukai’s aesthetic medical professionals within Daibi aims to ensure safety and operational excellence in delivering aesthetic treatments.

Commitment to Sustainable Medical Practices

SBC Medical, through this alliance, reiterates its mission to support sustainable international medical exchanges through medical tourism, reinforcing its position as a leader in high-quality medical care. The organization remains committed to enhancing global partnerships and providing patient-centered care that transcends national boundaries.

This strategic collaboration between SBC Medical's Nasukai and Daibi Medical Aesthetics sets the stage for a more robust and reliable aesthetic medicine framework benefiting both economic growth and patient outcomes, paving the way for innovations that could reshape the medical tourism landscape in the years to come.
