In an era where self-expression and self-care have become integral parts of our lives, the world of medi-aesthetics has transformed into a highly personalized journey.
Personalization is everywhere. We’re shown adverts on social media personalized to our browsing history. We can buy personalized skincare regimes in a matter of clicks. We can even get personalized perks and freebies from Starbucks based on our regular order.
It makes sense, then, that personalization plays a key role in medi aesthetics and healthcare. And one pivotal factor can unlock incredible results for your practice: personalized treatment plans. Just as each client is one-of-a-kind, their experience should be as well.
Personalized treatment plans aren’t just important – they’re the secret to becoming one of the practitioners your clients place their trust in. So, say goodbye to cookie-cutter approaches, and begin crafting experiences as unique as your clients.

The importance of personalized treatment plans in medi-aesthetics
The medi-aesthetic field is not just about appearances; it’s about holistic well-being and satisfaction. Just as no two clients are the same, their treatment plans shouldn’t be either.
When you tailor treatments based on individual factors like age, skin type, health history, and desired outcomes, you’re setting the stage for success.
A personalized treatment plan is like a roadmap designed exclusively for your client, ensuring safety and delivering the results they’re aiming for. Some of the key advantages are:
- Getting a better understanding of patient aspirations
- Boosting patient engagement in their treatment plan
- Building trust and creating partnership
- Creating a competitive edge
- Fostering trust, satisfaction, and confidence in the medi-aesthetic journey
The power of personalization
The power of personalization in medi-aesthetic practices lies at the core of delivering effective and highly satisfying treatment plans for clients.
- A study by Epsilon says that 80% of customers are more likely to buy from a brand that provides them with personalized experiences.
- According to Bolt’s report, 75% of shoppers would pay more for beauty and skincare products if they got personalized online shopping experiences.
- 72% of Gen Z consumers are willing to pay more than 10% for beauty products.
- Interestingly, 57% of Gen Z have the appetite to pay as much as 11-20% more for their beauty purchases if they involve custom and curated online shopping journeys.
In addition to enhancing patient satisfaction, personalization also plays a role in reducing potential side effects and complications, as treatments are carefully tailored to suit each client’s unique physiology.
Personalized treatment plans significantly contribute to the success and well-being of both patients and practitioners alike.
Benefits of personalized treatment plans - for patients and practitioners
Every client has their own goals and desired outcomes from their treatment plan. As practitioners, the key to patient satisfaction lies in listening, understanding, and effective delivery. This is where the power of personalized treatment plans truly emerges.
The importance of consultations
A personalized patient journey should always begin with an extensive consultation to delve into medical history, health status, lifestyle choices, and ambitions of the client.
However, we’re moving beyond the basics. Contemporary medi-aesthetic practices need thoughtful conversations, a good dose of empathy to grasp the dimensions of the client’s needs, and sophisticated tools to make the most of the information they gather.
A great consultation will enable the patient and the practitioner to align on…
- Desired outcomes and any concerns the patient has
- Expectations of results and whether these are achievable
- The resources and treatments available
- The expected recovery period
- Overall costs of treatment
Crafting personalized treatment plans
At the core of each personalized treatment plan is a carefully tailored solution that draws on the information gathered from the first consultation – medical history, current health, and personal goals and ambitions for results. This assessment lays the foundation for your plan.
Think about it: clients come in with many different concerns. A client with acne scars might get a plan with laser therapy to boost collagen and chemical peels to resurface the skin.
Another client who is dealing with sagging skin and wrinkles is more likely to get fillers and gentle procedures like micro-needling to bring back a youthful glow.
In this scenario, practice management software like Pabau is a game-changer.
You can input your treatment notes, send out and receive completed and paperless medical forms, take photos, and plan pre and aftercare solutions for the client.
Most importantly, with Pabau the client can be involved in the whole process of their journey – boosting their engagement and overall experience.

Create detailed patient profiles in the Client Card
Pabau simplifies client management with detailed client profiles – Client Cards.
The client card contains not just basic information but also medical history, allergies, consent forms, lab results, and past treatments. If you ever need to double-check the specifics of your client’s personalized plan, you can easily access it with just a couple of clicks.
You can write personalized treatment notes for each client’s visit. You can even grant clients access to their treatment notes if they want to be more involved in their treatment process.
The client portal allows you to store and share before-and-after treatment photos effortlessly, using a simple shareable link, which will help keep clients engaged in their progress.
Use customizable form templates
Pabau 2 enables clinics to design templates that are specific to a treatment or treatment plan.
Make them a seamless part of your new client process and you’ll never need to think twice.
You can customize the fields you use to collect important patient information and decide what details you need for each treatment, using text fields, checkboxes, or dropdowns. That way, you can ensure you gather all the information you need.
To stay updated on client progress, you can set up email or SMS alerts when clients complete specific their forms. This helps you stay informed so you can then build out their personalized plan.
Customizable follow-up communication
Patients love putting their trust in a clinic that will do everything possible to make them feel important, engaged, and well-informed.
With Pabau, you can build your own pre and after-care instructions templates from scratch or use Pabau’s ready-made templates. Tailoring the communication to specific treatments is effortless. If you have different instructions for different procedures, Pabau ensures that clients automatically receive the right information at the right time for that treatment.
Use the client portal to engage patients in their plan
Pabau’s Patient Portal for your online booking platform is a great tool that will help you build an experience that looks and feels personal.
Streamline the process of gathering client information by choosing which fields to display and making certain fields mandatory during appointment booking. You can also use Pabau to remind clients to provide any missing information after consultations.
Clients’ access and privileges can be managed under your control. You can grant them access to their complete records and medical history or use it solely for appointment requests and changes.
Pabau’s Patient Portal keeps all client records current and easily accessible. Clients can check appointments, update contact details, and manage their preferences independently in one convenient location.
