Updated August 2026.
If you run a med spa and you are comparing the best med spa marketing agencies, you have already noticed the pattern: every list is written by an agency, every agency ranks itself first, and almost none of them publish a price. We are not going to pretend to be neutral either. We put ourselves first and show the receipts, then we describe the rest of the field fairly, with real trade-offs, because that is what we would want as a buyer.
The range almost nobody publishes. Ours is on our pricing page in plain numbers.
| Price band | What you get | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Under $750/mo | Templated social posts, boosted ads, no compliance review | Nobody. Avoid. |
| $1,500-$2,500/mo | Local SEO, GBP, treatment pages, compliant ad management | Most single-location med spas |
| $4,000-$6,500/mo | Multi-channel: SEO plus paid, CRO, content engine, memberships | Competitive metros, multi-location |
| $10,000+/mo | Enterprise aesthetic-marketing agencies | Chains and franchise groups |
Receipts, not claims. We grew a med spa client to roughly 20 new patients a month with about 145 percent year-over-year growth in active users, running the full funnel: med spa SEO, compliant paid campaigns, and a HIPAA-compliant CRM for lead routing. We publish our pricing, every account and asset stays in your name, and we report on booked appointments. We rank our own site #1 for competitive marketing terms in the Chicago market, which is the same work we sell. Best for med spas that want one team running search and paid together, measured in appointments.
An aesthetic-industry specialist with a large portfolio of med spa and plastic-surgery clients and strong #1 ranking claims for client procedures. Best for established practices that want a big aesthetic-only shop. Honest trade-off: aesthetic-only scale means process, and smaller spas can feel like small accounts.
A full-service agency focused on plastic surgeons and med spas, strong on brand and website design. Best for practices whose site genuinely needs a rebuild as step one. Honest trade-off: design-led engagements run longer and cost more before lead flow changes.
A family-owned med spa marketing agency with goal-oriented packages across SEO and ads. Best for owners who want a personal, accessible team. Honest trade-off: smaller teams mean capacity limits; ask who covers your account during busy seasons.
A full-service shop for med spas and plastic surgery practices with aggressive ROI positioning. Best for practices chasing fast paid-traffic growth. Honest trade-off: verify the attribution behind the big ROI numbers before you sign; ask to see how they count a lead.
Publishes its pricing, roughly $1,699 to $2,499 a month, which we respect because almost nobody does. Best for budget-conscious practices that want a defined package. Honest trade-off: productized packages flex less; custom competitive strategies are not the model.
Shortlist three. Ask each for a first-60-day plan for your specific treatments and market, and a sample monthly report. Then apply two filters: which one talked about booked appointments instead of clicks, and which one brought up ad-policy compliance before you did? An agency that mentions consent processes and health-policy review unprompted has done this before. That is the whole method.
Paid campaigns fill slots in weeks; SEO compounds over months. A typical single-location spa sees Map Pack and treatment-page movement in 60 to 90 days, with paid ads producing booked consults almost immediately if intake keeps pace. The practices that win run both at once and let paid carry volume while search equity builds.
Before you shortlist anyone, know what you would ask them to do: our guide to med spa marketing ideas that actually fill treatment rooms ranks the plays by effort and payback, so you can judge every agency pitch against the work that matters.
We will show you the treatments we would push, the pages we would build, and the appointment numbers we would report. Pricing is already public.

About $1,500 to $6,500 a month for real work. Under about $750 usually means templated social posts and boosted ads with no compliance review. Multi-location groups in competitive metros spend more. Buy what you can sustain monthly, because the compounding channels take a few months to pay.
Paid campaigns can book consults within weeks if your intake responds fast. SEO and Google Business Profile work usually shows movement in 60 to 90 days and compounds from there. The fastest path is running both at once.
Yes, within limits. Both platforms restrict health claims, weight-loss promises, and before-and-after imagery in ads. The practical difference between agencies is how often their creative passes policy review the first time versus getting the account flagged.
Ask for pricing before the sales call, a first-60-day plan for your treatments and market, and a sample report. Confirm you own your site, your Google Business Profile, and your ad accounts if you leave. Then ask how they handle patient photos and review replies; a real process means they know HIPAA applies to marketing.
