Add Nationwide Telehealth to Your Aesthetic Practice
Turn existing patient demand into recurring revenue, with programs kept in-house. You keep the brand and the patients. We handle intake, providers, pharmacy, and payments in all 50 states.
How Karpa Works for Aesthetic Practices
From first patient to first payment. Here is exactly how the workflow runs for you.
Introduce the Program to Your Clients
Mention it at their next appointment or send a branded link. Clients enroll online under your practice name. The entire experience feels like your service.
Licensed Provider Prescribes, Automatically
Karpa's 50-state provider network handles the prescribing. Your clients get a clinical-grade experience without you needing additional medical staff.
Patients Get Results, Return More Often
Medications ship direct. Automated follow-ups keep patients engaged. Clients on pharmaceutical programs book aesthetic treatments more frequently and stay longer.

What to compare before you choose
Two routes get aesthetic practices into a clinical program. They differ on who owns the patient record, whose merchant account the revenue settles into, and how much you pay before the first patient.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which programs work best as a cross-sell for aesthetic patients?
Peptide therapy is a strong cross-sell for aesthetic patients already investing in recovery, anti-aging, and regenerative treatments. GLP-1 weight loss also performs well for patients pursuing body contouring or broader body-composition goals. Hormone optimization appeals to the 40+ demographic already investing in anti-aging.
How do we introduce these programs to existing patients?
Most aesthetic practices see the best results by introducing programs during existing appointments. A brief mention during a body contouring or injectable appointment is highly effective. Karpa also provides email templates, in-clinic materials, and website embed codes to promote programs to your existing patient list.
Do we need to hire additional clinical staff?
No. If you already have a prescribing provider (MD, DO, NP, or PA), they can use Karpa with minimal time commitment (2 to 5 minutes per patient review). The platform handles intake, screening, pharmacy coordination, and follow-ups. Most practices do not need additional headcount.
Will this compete with our existing aesthetic services?
The opposite: peptide and GLP-1 programs complement aesthetic treatments. Patients pursuing body-composition changes often increase spending on body contouring and skin tightening. Peptide patients interested in anti-aging are also your best candidates for regenerative facials and injectables.
What does the patient experience look like?
Patients complete a branded intake form (on your website or via a link you send). A provider reviews and approves the case through Karpa. The prescription is sent to a compounding pharmacy, which ships directly to the patient. Follow-ups and refills are automated. The entire experience is branded as your practice.
Can we offer these programs alongside our existing scheduling and booking system?
Yes. Karpa operates as a standalone workflow for prescribing and fulfillment. It does not replace your scheduling or booking system. Patients can book aesthetic appointments through your existing system and interact with Karpa separately for their pharmaceutical programs, or you can embed Karpa intake into your existing booking flow.
Can an aesthetic practice add weight loss without hiring a prescriber?
Yes. Your injectable and body-contouring patients are already asking about weight loss, and the clinical layer can be supplied rather than hired: Karpa's 50-state provider network evaluates patients and writes prescriptions while your practice keeps the brand and the relationship.
Does adding a GLP-1 program compete with my existing services?
It usually expands them. Weight loss patients are the same people buying injectables and body contouring, and the program adds a monthly recurring revenue line that keeps them in contact between treatments instead of sending that demand to a national brand.
What should I compare between telehealth platforms?
Four things: who owns the patient record, whose merchant account the revenue settles into, whether pricing is published before a sales call, and whether your own prescriber can prescribe. Intake and refills are table stakes in 2026, not differentiators.
