New revenue between visits.
No upfront inventory for patient-specific orders. Less manual pharmacy and payment work.
Your patient base is the advantage

Create a new revenue stream from patients already in your practice

Dermatology practices already serve patients who care about skin, hair, appearance and long-term wellness. Connect gives your practice an operational path to add eligible cash-pay programs without building an entirely new business around them.

01
Add revenue between appointments

Complement episodic visits with eligible programs that can generate recurring revenue while patients remain enrolled.

02
Start with existing patients

Introduce appropriate programs to patients who already know your clinicians instead of building a new acquisition funnel for every enrollment.

03
Expand the patient relationship

Support eligible needs across weight management, hair and wellness while keeping more of the relationship inside one trusted practice.

04
Grow without adding treatment capacity

Program revenue can continue between visits without requiring another laser room, injectable slot or procedure appointment every month.

Create more value from the patient relationships and clinical trust your practice has already built.
Expand beyond the appointment

Grow cash-pay revenue without making your schedule the bottleneck

Procedure revenue depends on appointments, rooms and clinician time. Eligible recurring programs give your practice another revenue model that can continue between scheduled visits.

01
Every dollar needs a slot

Patients enroll and pay through the program workflow.

02
The months in between are empty

Eligible recurring orders follow the configured program cycle and provider review.

03
A subscription website collects it instead

Patient-specific medication can ship directly to the patient where applicable.

04
A monthly program bills without a booking

Your existing cosmetic and medical dermatology services continue on their normal cadence.

More revenue does not always have to mean more appointments.
Program economics

See what a small group of enrolled patients could contribute

Use your actual patient volume, medication costs and pricing to model an additional recurring revenue stream.

30
Active enrolled patients

Per enrolled patient per month, the medication cost a Connect practice pays, shipping and cold packaging counted in. Every practice on the platform buys as one, which is what produces the number.

$250
Contribution per patient per month before practice overhead

A typical blended monthly price to the patient. Your practice picks the number, so it tracks your market and whatever the program includes.

$7,500
Contribution across 30 active enrolled patients per month

What stays with the practice before staff time. Earning it booked no chair and scheduled no injector.

At this example spread, 30 active enrolled patients would represent $90,000 per year before staffing, technology, marketing and other practice costs.

Illustrative examples only. Revenue, costs, margin, enrollment, patient demand and retention vary by practice, program, medication, dose and pricing.

Model my patient opportunity
One practice, more patient needs

Extend your dermatology offering into weight, hair and wellness

Add programs adjacent to goals many dermatology patients already discuss with your practice.

01
Weight management

Offer eligible medical weight-management programs and keep the patient connected to the same practice that may also support evolving skin and aesthetic goals.

02
Hair

Extend appropriate hair-loss care into a recurring program experience with provider oversight, pharmacy fulfillment and patient self-service.

03
Wellness

Add eligible hormone, peptide or other wellness offerings when they fit your practice model and clinical scope.

04
Enrollment builds instead of resetting

Each program a patient adds extends the enrollment they already have, so the relationship keeps building instead of starting over.

One trusted practice. More appropriate ways to serve the same patient over time.
One operational workflow

Add the program without building another back office

01
Patient enrolls

The patient selects an eligible program, completes applicable checkout and provides payment information.

02
Provider reviews

An appropriately licensed provider evaluates the patient and reviews and submits prescriptions when clinically appropriate.

03
Pharmacy fulfills

Eligible patient-specific orders route through the Connect pharmacy network for fulfillment and shipment.

04
Connect runs the recurring workflow

Program cycles, eligible payment retries, available tracking and patient self-service continue without your team rebuilding the process each month.

Your clinicians keep the care relationship. Connect handles more of the operational work around the program.
Infrastructure already built

Add wellness services without adding another system for the front desk to manage

01
Pharmacy access

Use established pharmacy relationships for eligible patient-specific orders instead of opening and maintaining routine pharmacy accounts.

02
Recurring payments

Run scheduled charges and eligible retry workflows without creating another manual collections process.

03
Patient self-service

Give patients access to available tracking, program and payment information without turning your front desk into the status desk.

04
Order workflows

Generate provider-ready recurring order workflows instead of repeatedly entering the same information.

05
Consent and documentation

Build applicable patient acknowledgments into the workflow and maintain timestamped records.

Protect the staff and treatment capacity that already drives your dermatology business.

Compounded medications are not FDA approved, and the FDA does not review them for safety or effectiveness before they are sold. Connect does not make a clinic compliant on its own and does not replace your own legal and clinical judgment.

Start with existing demand

Build the wellness segment from patients already asking

You do not need to launch a new consumer brand to test the opportunity. Start with appropriate patients already asking about weight management, hair treatment or wellness services.

01

Choose the programs that fit your practice model and clinical scope.

02

Review available medication costs and set your patient pricing.

03

Configure providers and the patient workflow.

04

Enroll appropriate patients, measure the economics and expand from there.

Questions we get

What cosmetic dermatology practices ask us

Can dermatology practices offer medical weight-loss programs?

Yes, in most states, when an appropriately licensed provider evaluates the patient, documents medical necessity and writes for a named patient. Requirements vary by state, ownership structure, licensure and supervision rules, so confirm your structure with qualified counsel. Connect supplies the operational workflow around the program: checkout, consent, pharmacy routing, recurring payments and patient self-service.

Can a dermatologist offer GLP-1 weight management services?

Yes, when a licensed provider on your team evaluates the patient and prescribes. Connect does not prescribe or supply prescribers. Your clinician makes the clinical decision and submits the order, and the platform handles enrollment, the recurring cycle, pharmacy routing and payment so the program does not create a separate operating model inside your practice.

How can dermatology practices add a cash-pay wellness program?

Start with the programs that fit your clinical scope, review available medication costs, set your patient pricing and configure providers and the patient workflow. Then enroll appropriate patients who are already asking. Most practices begin with weight management or hair, measure the economics on a small group and expand from there rather than launching everything at once.

Does Connect replace our dermatology EHR or practice management system?

No, Connect sits beside them. The treatment plan, the patient's program, the pharmacy order and the recurring payment live in Connect, while your EHR and practice management system continue to run the dermatology side of the practice. The platform supports the wellness segment rather than replacing your core systems.

Can dermatology practices offer recurring hair-loss medication programs?

Yes. Hair loss is a dermatologic diagnosis your practice already evaluates, and Connect turns appropriate treatment into a recurring program with provider oversight, pharmacy fulfillment and patient self-service. The patient enrolls once, the order repeats on the configured cycle, and your team is not re-entering the prescription every month.

How can weight-loss services create an additional revenue stream for dermatology practices?

Program revenue repeats between appointments rather than depending on a treatment room. Procedure income is capped by rooms, clinician time and slots on the schedule. An enrolled patient is charged on the program cycle whether or not they are booked that month, so the revenue model scales with enrollment instead of chair time.

Do dermatology practices need to stock GLP-1 or wellness medication?

No. Patient-specific orders are compounded after checkout and ship directly to the patient, so routine inventory is not required for that workflow. Your practice does not carry vials against demand it has not seen yet. Some medications may support office-stock ordering if your practice administers in the office.

How does pharmacy fulfillment work for dermatology wellness programs?

Your provider reviews and submits the order in Connect, and it routes to a licensed pharmacy in the network that can fill that medication for the patient's state. The pharmacy compounds and ships directly to the patient, with shipping and cold packaging reflected in the cost you saw while building the plan. Your practice holds no inventory and does not reship anything.

How much staff work does a recurring wellness program add?

Less than most practices expect, because the repetitive parts are automated. Recurring orders are generated from the treatment plan for provider review, payments retry and recover on their own, and patients handle tracking, pauses and card updates in the portal. Your provider still performs the clinical review and prescribing.

Can dermatology practices accept recurring card payments for wellness programs?

Yes, on infrastructure underwritten for this category. Connect runs the recurring charge on each program's cycle, retries eligible declines and lets patients update their own card, and settles medication, shipping and the platform service fee on the same transaction. Your practice does not apply for a separate program-payment account.

Can a dermatology practice offer weight, hair and wellness programs from one platform?

Yes. Weight, hair and wellness programs run in the same Connect workflow, and a patient can hold more than one on a single record with one card on file. Each medication follows its own cycle underneath, so adding a second program does not create a second enrollment, a second payment method or a second place to look for order status.

Which states can we offer wellness programs in?

Your providers' licenses set the boundary, and telehealth rules vary state by state. Before an order can be submitted, Connect matches the prescribing provider's license to the patient's state. The pharmacy network delivers to all 50 states and DC, so the license is the constraint and never the shipping map.

What does wellness program software for dermatology practices cost?

Plans start at $2,999 per year or $299 per month, priced by how many patients are actively enrolled rather than by user seats. A two-provider practice and a ten-provider practice pay the same at the same panel size, and every plan includes unlimited providers, locations and staff logins.
