Built For The Way Aesthetics Practices Operate

Get started

Designed For Aesthetics, Not Adapted To It

Nextech brings valuable clinical depth, but its workflows were adapted from insurance-based specialties. PatientNow is purpose-built around the way aesthetic practices work, from consultations and treatment plans to packages, memberships, inventory, and patient retention.

Growth Tools Built In

Nextech is strong on clinical workflows, but practices may need additional tools for inventory, memberships, loyalty, and patient engagement. PatientNow brings those growth-focused capabilities into one platform so your team can manage care and the business behind it.

Smarter Photo Management

PatientNow helps aesthetic teams manage patient photos and treatment progress with workflows designed for the realities of modern practices. Spend less time managing disconnected tools and more time focused on patient outcomes.

Scales With Your Practice

Whether you are growing a med spa, adding providers, expanding services, or managing multiple locations, PatientNow is designed to support long-term growth across operations, marketing, and patient retention.

Built to Work with Your EMR System

RxPhoto integrates seamlessly with your EMR system, enabling efficient photo documentation and secure data storage.
