How much does a plastic surgery website cost?
+
We quote one fixed price, agreed before work starts, based on the number of pages, features, integrations and content. You get it within 1 business day of a free audit of your current site. There is no hourly billing.
How long does it take to build a plastic surgery website?
+
Most take 4 to 8 weeks. Multi-surgeon or multi-location practices with large galleries and many procedure pages take 8 to 12 weeks. You get a dated week-by-week plan before we start, and the biggest variable is usually how fast gallery cases and surgeon content are approved.
Can you move our before-and-after gallery from our current vendor?
+
Yes. We move the cases with their procedure labels and descriptions, and we check which cases have consent on file before republishing them. Cases without a record stay offline until your team confirms consent.
Is the website HIPAA compliant?
+
We build consult forms and photo uploads on providers that sign a BAA, keep ad pixels off those pages, send no health details to analytics and document where every field goes. We do not certify compliance; your counsel and privacy officer decide, and we give them what they need to check it.
Can patients send photos for a virtual consultation?
+
Yes, through a secure upload on a provider that signs a BAA, with clear photo instructions and alerts that do not attach the photos. Photos never pass through a plain website form that emails them.
Should we show prices on our plastic surgery website?
+
That is your decision. Patients rank pricing information before the appointment among their top booking factors, so at minimum we show what a fee includes, what changes it, your consult fee and financing. If you publish ranges, we write them to your state's price advertising rules (California bans "as low as" and "and up") and link the good faith estimate notice.
Will our rankings drop if we redesign?
+
We plan against it: every old URL is mapped and redirected, procedure pages and gallery cases that rank keep their content, and we compare Search Console data before and after launch. No one can promise rankings, but most drops come from skipped redirects, which we do not skip.
Do we own the website and the gallery?
+
Yes, from day one. Code, design, content, gallery originals, domain, hosting and analytics accounts are in the practice's name. There is no lock-in, so you can take the site to another developer at any time.
Can you connect the site to PatientNow, Symplast or Nextech?
+
Where the vendor allows it, we send consult requests into the CRM or lead pipeline you already use, with the source page attached. We confirm what your system supports during the free audit.
Should our med spa have its own website or a section of ours?
+
It depends on your ads and brand. Keeping Botox and filler pages apart from surgical landing pages helps with Google's prescription drug term rules. We also build med spa sites, and we will recommend one or the other after the audit.
Do you write the procedure content?
+
Yes, from your input, your techniques and published sources such as ASPS and The Aesthetic Society. The surgeon reviews every medical page before launch, and nothing goes live without your approval.
Will a new website get us more consults?
+
We do not guarantee rankings or consult numbers. What a new site changes is how many visitors ask for a consult: procedure pages that answer the real questions, a gallery that builds trust, a virtual consult path and tracking that shows which page produced each request. On a rooftop solar installer's site (not a medical practice), the same lead system took tracked inquiries from none to 7 to 10 a week.
How does our practice show up in ChatGPT and Google AI answers?
+
AI assistants lean on your website, your Google profile and your reviews. We write surgeon, procedure and facility pages as clear answers with the board named in text, add schema and make the site match your profile. No one can guarantee an AI mention, but a consistent, specific site gives assistants something accurate to cite.
What makes you different from another plastic surgeon website design firm?
+
Three things in writing before we start: a fixed quote within 1 business day, a dated week-by-week plan, and ownership of the site, gallery and accounts in your name with no lock-in. The build covers what most firms leave out: consent records per gallery case, the exact board named in text, BAA-backed photo uploads, a good faith estimate notice page, and consult tracking by procedure and surgeon.
