Specialty · Plastic surgery SEO

SEO built for
plastic surgeons.

A facelift patient runs twenty searches before she books a consult. Plastic surgery SEO decides whose name she sees every time: on Google, in the map pack, and now in ChatGPT and AI Overviews. We build the procedure pages, the site infrastructure, and the authority that put you there. You do medicine. We do the rankings.

01The overview · Why plastic surgery SEO is its own discipline

Patients search by procedure, not by specialty

Nobody searches "plastic surgeon" and books. They search facelift cost, rhinoplasty before and after, breast augmentation near me — dozens of procedure-level searches per patient, months before the consult. Winning that demand takes a deep page per procedure, a map-pack presence that holds the top three, galleries that rank in image search, and content AI engines can cite. Generic medical SEO doesn't do that. We only do elective medicine, and plastic surgery is our biggest vertical.
The secrets

The 10 secrets of plastic surgery SEO

01

A deep page for every procedure

One thin page ranks for one search. A deep facelift page ranks for fifty long-tail variations — cost, recovery, candidacy, technique — and gets cited by AI for dozens more. Depth is the whole game.

02

Galleries built for machines and humans

Your results are your best content. Per-procedure galleries with real case detail, image-search presence, and schema — so the proof that convinces patients also feeds the rankings.

03

Win the map pack first

The map pack takes the clicks in every metro. Categories, photos, posts, and review velocity are a ranking system of their own — most practices set it once and forget it. That's the opening.

04

The directory constellation

RealSelf, Healthgrades, Vitals, ASPS, and 200+ listings feed Google and AI their picture of you. One inconsistent phone number quietly bleeds trust. We keep every listing exact.

05

Your name is a keyword

Patients search you by name before they book. Own page one for it completely: site, reviews, socials, press, videos — because the competitor ads and the directories are trying to take it.

06

Video is a second search engine

YouTube ranks in Google, fills the video carousel, and feeds AI engines. Procedure explainers and patient stories rank where text can't — one client's videos average 44K views each.

07

Get cited, not just ranked

AI Overviews now appear on 19 of 30 core plastic-surgery keywords. Being the practice ChatGPT and AI Overviews cite is a different discipline than ranking — structured data, quotable claims, consistent entities. We track it monthly.

08

Reviews are ranking fuel

Volume, recency, and the words patients use all move local rankings — and AI engines read reviews to characterize you. A review system, not a plea at checkout.

09

Technical speed, ruthlessly

Seventy percent of patients arrive on a phone. Instant paint, clean Core Web Vitals, no bloated theme — site engineering is a ranking factor and a conversion factor at once.

10

Defend what you win

Rankings decay without maintenance: algorithm shifts, new competitors, content rot. Daily monitoring and quarterly content refreshes keep the position you paid to earn. Defense is cheaper than reconquest.

Questions doctors ask

Straight answers

01

How long does plastic surgery SEO take?

Technical wins land in the first 60 days. Competitive procedure rankings take 6-12 months in most metros. The compounding starts around month six — which is why the practices that started last year are hard to catch.

02

What does plastic surgery SEO cost?

Serious programs in competitive metros run $2,000-$8,000+ per month across the industry. We price by market and scope, and we publish exactly what ships every month. One consult typically covers the month.

03

Can you guarantee #1 rankings?

Nobody honest can. What we guarantee is the work: the pages, the technical fixes, the listings, the tracking — and screenshots of results as they land, like the ones above.

04

How is AI search changing plastic surgery SEO?

AI Overviews now sit on most plastic-surgery keywords, and patients ask ChatGPT for surgeon shortlists. Getting cited requires structured data and consistent entities beyond classic SEO. We build both and track your AI citations monthly.
