Why turn-key
A lower barrier to opening — for two kinds of founders.
Nurse entrepreneurs
Experienced NPs and RNs can build a practice under their own brand. We arrange the physician partnership and supervision your state requires, train your team, and run the business back office.
Cross-industry investors
No aesthetics background needed. Own the management company, choose the co-brand option for ready brand, design and central booking, and run on a proven playbook.

Four parts, clearly separated.
- Your management company (MSO)Owned 100% by the investor or founder. Holds the brand, lease, equipment and non-clinical operations.

- Affiliated physician practice (PC / PLLC)Owned by licensed physicians. Provides good-faith exams, clinical supervision and malpractice coverage under a fair-market-value management agreement.
- Third-party engineering networkLicensed biomedical engineers handle installation, calibration and maintenance with a 48-hour on-site SLA.
Clinical services are provided only by the licensed professional entity. Ownership and management structures vary by state and are set up with healthcare counsel.
