- Insights from global professionals incorporated throughout the LemonBottle product development process
- First collaborative product development project shaped by local consumer needs and beauty trends
SID MEDICOS Co., Ltd., a global beauty and aesthetics company, announced on 13 August that it has established a collaborative product development framework for LemonBottle, incorporating the hands-on experience and market insights of aesthetic professionals worldwide.
Through LemonBottle Academy Season 2, SID MEDICOS is gathering insights into consumer needs and beauty trends across different markets and incorporating them throughout the development of new products. This marks the first time that global professionals have participated directly in the company’s product development process.
LemonBottle Academy Season 2 is an official training and support programme for aesthetic professionals worldwide. Running from June to August 2026, the programme brings together approximately 100 aestheticians, doctors and educators from the UK, Mexico and the US, as well as countries across Europe, Asia and Africa.
SID MEDICOS recognised the value of the insights that participating professionals have gained through direct interaction with consumers in their respective markets. As product preferences, the ways in which products are used and beauty trends vary by country and region, the company believes that incorporating local professional insights from the initial planning stage is essential to developing products suited to the needs of different markets.
Rather than simply providing feedback on products being developed by the company, participating professionals are involved throughout the development process, working closely with SID MEDICOS researchers from the initial planning stage. Together, they discuss and refine key product elements, including product naming, ingredients and formulations, container design and usability, and packaging developed with sustainability in mind. This approach enables the company to incorporate their local market experience and understanding of consumers, enhancing both the overall quality of the products and their relevance to individual markets.
SID MEDICOS plans to use this project as its first model for collaborative product development with global professionals and gradually expand the range of participants and products involved. Through this initiative, the company aims to strengthen the competitiveness of the LemonBottle brand while broadening its portfolio with new products that reflect the needs of consumers worldwide.
“Developing competitive products for global markets requires listening to professionals who work most closely with consumers in each country,” said a spokesperson for SID MEDICOS. “This project is particularly meaningful because participants in the Academy are going beyond their role as product educators and contributing directly to the product development process.”
