New York-based Lushful Aesthetics promoted its $4,000 (£3.1k) 'girth enhancement' option with a post mentioning phrase. It even offered men the chance to 'finance your c***'.
Winning in Aesthetics: How to Build Credibility + Trust with Your Patients - Aesthetic procedures can be nerve-wracking—and establishing trust between provider and patient is key. Chris is able to speak about this from a first-hand perspective. “The aesthetics industry shouldn’t be following a cookie cutter approach—and many leading chain spas do,” says Chris. “Every face is different and providers need to treat each patient uniquely—this will instill confidence and security that they’re being provided top-tier care.”
How to Normalize Sexual Enhancement Procedures: “Just Offer Them.” - Despite the recent rise in popularity, sexual enhancement procedures like penis fillers are still pretty taboo. Chris is eliminating the stigma by simply just drawing attention to it and offering it like it’s a mainstream procedure—paving the way for sexual enhancement services.
The Ugly Truth About VC-Backed MedSpas' Bait & Switch Business Models - VC-backed medspas typically hire novice injectors, and have a cut-and-paste approach to their services rather than personalizing to each patient. The lack of experience, and inability to thoroughly address questions and concerns endangers patients and creates a false perception of aesthetic practitioners at large.
