Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to UV Body Sculpture After Dragons’ Den?
UV Body Sculpture appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2011, Series 9 Episode 2. The business was a skin tanning aid via ultraviolet technology. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Glen Harden walked into the Den in 2011 with a skin tanning aid via ultraviolet technology. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 20% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Glen Harden left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
UV Body Sculpture is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2011, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is UV Body Sculpture Still in Business?
Yes. UV Body Sculpture appears to still be trading.
