Five generations of patients will book aesthetic treatments in 2024. Beyond their interest in aesthetics, they don’t have a lot in common. Older generations want an in-person or over-the-phone experience whereas younger generations might not have a voicemail set up on their cellphone. Despite these differences, the right technologies can help your practice delight all five generations.

Baby boomers didn’t start the fire, but they are a defining generation. Of the five generations alive today, boomers dictate much of the economy and are frequent visitors to aesthetic practices. Because of this, it’s important to understand the relationship between baby boomers and aesthetic treatment.

Because of this, many practices are switching to a new plastic surgery EHR.

Plastic surgery is a rapidly growing field, with the demand for aesthetic injectables growing by 10%-15% year over year. There are many potential reasons, from improved techniques for nonsurgical treatments to a decreased stigma around injectables, but one thing is clear: elective plastic surgery treatments are in-demand. Thanks to this increased interest, practices are seeing more patients than ever before. To keep up, many practices are switching from a generic EHR to a plastic surgery EHR. A specialty-specific system allows practices to move faster while maintaining excellent patient care. Here’s how practices across the country use plastic surgery-specific EHRs to satisfy increased demand.
