It takes approximately $551,000 - $903,000 to open a standard Ideal Image^® center. In many states, you do not have to have a medical background to own one of our centers.

1. To be considered for our opportunity, and to begin our Discovery process, you will be asked to complete and submit our "Request for Consideration" form.

2. Once we receive and review your completed form, we will call you to discuss our franchise opportunity in more detail, review our model, identify your business goals and identify potential markets that fit your expectations and investment level.

3. If we mutually agree that we have common interests and goals, we will send you our Uniform Franchise Offering Circular (UFOC), which describes and spells out all the details related to owning and operating an Ideal Image^® franchise.
