The subjects in this study were 240 users of 16 different skincare & obesity clinics selected from Busan. Out of the clinics, four franchise clinics and four non-franchise clinics were selected from the major commercial districts, and four franchise clinics and four non-franchise clinics were selected from the residential areas. Concerning the influence of three leading factors on customer satisfaction, all the service price, material service and human service had a significant impact on customer satisfaction in the franchise model for the commercial districts. In the case of the franchise clinics in the residential areas, only service price exerted a significant influence on customer satisfaction. In terms of the non-franchise model for the commercial districts, customer satisfaction was under the significant influence of human service and material service, and that was significantly affected by human service and service price in the non-franchise model for the residential areas.
