How it is calculated
- Light peels = fee × peels per week × 52 ÷ 12
- Resurfacing = fee × cases per month
- Monthly revenue = light peels + resurfacing
- After the lease = monthly revenue − lease
- Light peels to cover the lease = lease ÷ light peel fee, rounded up
Not included
Staff time, consumables, marketing, insurance, taxes, training, discounts, cancellations, financing costs beyond the lease amount you enter, and anything else that makes up your cost of care.

ROI calculator questions
How is the monthly revenue estimate calculated?+–
Light peel revenue is the fee times peels per week times 52 divided by 12. Resurfacing revenue is the fee times resurfacings per month. Monthly revenue is the sum, and the figure after the lease is revenue minus the monthly lease amount you enter.
Are the default numbers a promise of what my practice will earn?+–
No. They are placeholders for planning. Your fees, patient demand, staffing and costs will differ. Saratoga does not guarantee patient volume, revenue or return on investment.
Does the calculator include my costs?+–
No. It shows revenue before overhead, not profit. It leaves out staff time, consumables, marketing, insurance, taxes, training and other costs of running the service.
Where do I get a real lease or financing figure?+–
Ask a Saratoga specialist for a written quote and financing estimate. Terms vary and approval is not guaranteed. Consult your tax advisor about how Section 179 may apply to you.
