Short answer: SEO Engico is the top pick for plastic surgeon SEO if you want every consultation traced back to the search behind it, with local SEO, AI search and links in one retainer. Rosemont Media suits surgeons who want market exclusivity and a published price range, Etna Interactive fits practices that also want lead handling tools and staff training, and Plastic Surgery Studios suits surgeons who prefer a long-running, family-owned aesthetic specialist.
Someone weighing up a rhinoplasty or a tummy tuck reads for weeks before booking a consultation. They compare surgeons' training, scroll before-and-after galleries, read reviews and, more and more often, ask ChatGPT or Google's AI Mode who is good in their city. Plastic surgeon SEO is the work of being the practice they keep finding at each of those moments, with pages that show who the surgeon is, explain the procedure honestly and make booking easy.
This list covers agencies that sell SEO to plastic and cosmetic surgeons, checked against their own websites in November 2026. We judged them on what they publish: how they build procedure and gallery content, how they handle reviews and AI search, how they report consultations, and what they charge where a price is shown. Medical advertising rules shape this work more than most niches, so they are treated as a buying criterion here, not a footnote.

How we picked
- Procedure pages a surgeon would sign off. Each procedure needs its own page covering candidacy, recovery, risks and what affects the cost, in plain English and reviewed by the surgeon. Thin pages padded with city names convince neither a patient nor Google.
- Galleries and reviews treated as search assets. Before-and-after photos and reviews are what patients compare most. Look for gallery pages that load fast, carry useful captions and sit inside the site structure, plus a steady, honest review programme on Google and the main directories.
- Credentials that search engines and AI tools can read. Board certification, training, memberships and hospital privileges belong on the surgeon's bio, in structured data and on the profiles AI assistants draw from. Google treats surgery as a health and safety topic, so proof of expertise carries real weight.
- Writes within the advertising rules. In the US that means the FTC's rules on endorsements and fake reviews, your state medical board's advertising rules, and HIPAA authorisation before any patient photo or story is used. In the UK, GMC guidance rules out pressure tactics such as time-limited deals, and the ASA bars cosmetic intervention ads aimed at under-18s.
- Tracks consultations by procedure, not just rankings. A top ranking for breast augmentation only matters if it fills the consultation diary. Ask whether calls and forms are tracked by procedure and source, and whether the agency can connect them to surgery booked.
The 6 best SEO agencies for plastic surgeons in 2026
Our top pick
1. SEO Engico
- Best for
- Surgeons who want every consultation traced back to the search that started it
- Based in
- London, UK
- Founded
- 2018
SEO Engico is a London agency founded in 2018 by Jhonty Barreto and Priyam Goyal, working with businesses across the UK, US, Australia and India. It has no published plastic surgery case study, so judge it on its method. Every SEO engagement starts with a 30-day Revenue Baseline ($3,499): GA4 key events with real conversion values, Enhanced Conversions through GTM, call and form attribution, and CRM stitching, so a booked consultation can be traced to the search behind it. If it cannot show what organic search is worth within those 30 days, you do not pay for that phase.
The Growth retainer ($4,500 a month) then covers technical SEO, buyer-intent procedure pages and content, link building, AI search visibility and local SEO across Google Business Profile, citations and location pages. Its AI search work checks whether ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Perplexity and Claude name your practice, and who they name instead. Monthly reports start with calls, enquiries and revenue, inside a portal where you approve work before it goes live, which suits a specialty where every claim needs the surgeon's sign-off.
What stands out
- Call, form and CRM tracking is set up before the SEO work, so consultations are measured against the searches that produced them
- Every page can be approved in its client portal before it goes live, which makes surgeon review and compliance checks part of the process
- Website, ads, SEO and links sit with one team, and every rate is published on its pricing page
- Says on the first call if your budget or market cannot realistically compete yet
Worth knowing
- It has no published case study for plastic surgeons, so ask how it would handle galleries, patient consent and your medical board's or the GMC's rules before you sign.
- There are no ranking guarantees. It says technical and on-page fixes usually move something in four to eight weeks, bigger gains take three to six months, and the first term is three months.

No. 2
2. Rosemont Media
- Best for
- Surgeons who want market exclusivity and a published SEO price range
- Based in
- San Diego, California, US
- Founded
- 2008
Rosemont Media is a San Diego agency founded in 2008 for elective healthcare, and plastic surgeons come first on its client list, ahead of cosmetic dentists and LASIK providers. Its SEO page starts with an audit of site architecture, device compatibility, content quality and backlinks, then runs content marketing, link building and local optimisation. A separate generative engine optimisation service has its own page for plastic surgeons.
The commercial terms are clearer than most in this niche. It takes one practice per market, and its SEO page says monthly plans typically run from $1,000 to $3,000 depending on market scope and how competitive it is, which makes budgeting far simpler than a scoping call with no anchor.
What stands out
- One practice per market, so it will not also work for the surgeon down the road
- Published monthly SEO range of $1,000 to $3,000
- GEO service with an approach written specifically for plastic surgeons
- Led by Keith C. Humes, who has worked in digital marketing since 1999
Worth knowing
- Exclusivity cuts both ways: if a competitor near you already works with it, it may not be able to take you on.
- It also serves dentists and eye-care providers, so plastic surgery is a lead sector rather than the only one.
No. 3
3. Etna Interactive
- Best for
- Practices that want SEO plus their own lead handling tools and staff training
- Based in
- San Luis Obispo, California, US
Etna Interactive has specialised in aesthetic practices for more than 20 years, and plastic surgery is where it started. Its plastic surgery page describes an in-depth review of your website, content, performance, backlink profile, social presence and online reputation before a plan is set, then an integrated SEO programme reviewed against your metrics every month. It covers local search, content written with your team, and answer engine optimisation for ChatGPT, Google AI and Siri.
What sets it apart is the practice-side tooling. Etna sells its own call tracking, lead management, a before-and-after gallery product called Curator B&A and a review tool called Reputation Ally, and it trains the staff who handle enquiries. If leads are already arriving but not turning into consultations, that matters as much as rankings.
What stands out
- Plastic surgery is its original specialism, alongside facial plastics, med spas, dermatology and ophthalmology
- Its own call tracking and lead management tools sit next to the SEO
- Curator B&A gallery software and Reputation Ally for reviews
- Training for the team that answers calls and enquiries
Worth knowing
- No prices are published. The first step is a free marketing assessment.
- It works with everything from solo surgeons to large groups and regional networks, so ask who will run your account day to day.
No. 4
4. Plastic Surgery Studios
- Best for
- Surgeons who want a long-running, family-owned aesthetic specialist
- Based in
- Rancho Cucamonga, California, US
- Founded
- 1999
Plastic Surgery Studios has marketed aesthetic practices since 1999, almost exclusively for plastic surgeons, cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists and cosmetic dentists. It is family-owned and operated, builds custom websites alongside its digital and traditional marketing, and names an SEO and AEO strategist on its about page, so search and AI answer work sit with a specific person rather than a pool.
Its history in the specialty runs deeper than client work: it also built consumer directories for aesthetic medicine, including PlasticSurgery.com. For a surgeon who wants an agency that has watched this market for a long time and keeps the client list tightly focused, it is a natural shortlist pick.
What stands out
- Working with aesthetic practices since 1999
- Almost all of its clients are surgeons and aesthetic physicians
- Family-owned, with a named SEO and AEO strategist
- Custom websites built alongside the SEO
Worth knowing
- No pricing is published on the pages checked, so expect a conversation first.
- Its client base is mainly US practices, although it says it works with medical professionals worldwide.
No. 5
5. Influx Marketing
- Best for
- Design-led practices that want SEO, photography and ads under one roof
- Based in
- Pasadena, Salt Lake City and Tampa, US
Influx describes itself as a digital agency for cash-pay healthcare practices, with plastic surgeons at the top of its list alongside med spas and cosmetic dentists. It takes a design-first approach, on the basis that cosmetic patients make fast, visual decisions, and calls plastic surgery SEO a core competency: fast pages, on-page SEO, planned site structure and original medical copywriting, with AI search optimisation alongside.
Its in-house photo and video team is the practical difference. Original imagery beyond before-and-after shots is hard to source and feeds both search and social. Reporting comes through a real-time dashboard and lead tracking system, or as prepared reports if you would rather read a summary.
What stands out
- In-house photo and video production for original practice imagery
- Real-time dashboard and lead tracking
- Original medical copywriting behind its pages and campaigns
- Produces The Technology of Beauty, a podcast hosted by plastic surgeon Dr Grant Stevens
Worth knowing
- No pricing is published, and its site says competitive cosmetic markets usually need paid ads alongside SEO.
- Its pitch leans heavily on web design, so it suits practices planning a rebuild more than those happy with their current site.
No. 6
6. Studio 3 Marketing
- Best for
- Surgeons who want SEO from an SEO-first team plus help converting the leads
- Based in
- Austin, Texas and Los Angeles, US
Studio 3 Marketing runs a dedicated SEO programme for plastic surgery from offices in Austin and Los Angeles, and says SEO has been its foundation since 2011, with more than a dozen SEO technicians trained in-house. Its plastic surgery SEO page looks beyond organic rankings to AI-generated answers, local Maps results, sponsored listings and platforms outside Google, under an approach it calls people-first SEO: get the brand and message clear, then build content and design that real patients engage with.
Its extras target the gap between enquiry and surgery. LeadLoop is its own lead management software for connecting marketing to revenue, and patient acquisition coaching works with practices on getting more bookings from the leads they already have. It also has multi-location technology for groups with several sites.
What stands out
- SEO-first agency with an in-house trained SEO team
- One programme covering organic, AI answers and Maps
- LeadLoop lead management software that ties marketing to revenue
- Patient acquisition coaching for the team handling enquiries
Worth knowing
- No pricing is published on its SEO pages.
- Its brand-first approach may mean messaging and website work comes before SEO if your site looks like a template.
How to choose an SEO agency for your plastic surgery practice
Start with your market and your procedures. A solo surgeon in a mid-sized city competing on breast and body work needs a different plan from a multi-surgeon group in Los Angeles or London, so ask each agency which procedures it would build first, why, and what the first three months look like. Check that it already works in your country, because the rules on testimonials, photos and promotions differ a lot between the US and the UK.
Then look hard at measurement. Plastic surgeon SEO is a long game with high-value outcomes, so the agency should be able to show calls and consultation requests by procedure and source, not only traffic and rankings. Ask who writes the clinical content, who reviews it, and how galleries and patient consent are handled. Finally, read the terms: market exclusivity, minimum contract length and who owns the website and content if you leave.
Questions to ask before you sign
- Which procedures would you build pages for first, and how do you decide?
- Who writes and who medically reviews our procedure content before it goes live?
- How do you handle before-and-after photos, patient consent and our advertising rules?
- Will you track calls and consultation requests by procedure, and can you connect them to surgery booked?
- Do you work with any other surgeons in our area?
- What does it cost, what is the minimum term, and who owns the site and content if we leave?
Frequently asked questions
What is plastic surgeon SEO?
Plastic surgeon SEO is the work of getting your practice found when people research procedures and surgeons on Google, in Maps and in AI tools such as ChatGPT. It covers procedure pages, the surgeon's bio and credentials, before-and-after galleries, reviews, Google Business Profile, technical fixes and links from relevant sites, measured by the consultations it produces.
How much does SEO cost for a plastic surgeon?
It depends on your city, the procedures you want to grow and how much needs fixing. Rosemont Media publishes a typical range of $1,000 to $3,000 a month. SEO Engico starts with a $3,499 Revenue Baseline and then a $4,500 a month Growth retainer that includes links and AI search. Many aesthetic specialists only quote after an assessment.
How long does SEO take to work for a plastic surgery practice?
Expect early movement from technical and on-page fixes within a couple of months and bigger gains over three to six months or more, depending on competition. Procedure terms in major cities are among the hardest in local search, which is why several agencies on this list recommend running paid ads alongside SEO while it builds.
Can I use before-and-after photos and patient reviews in my marketing?
Usually yes, with care. In the US you need the patient's written HIPAA authorisation to use identifiable photos, and reviews must be genuine under FTC rules. In the UK, the GMC and the ASA expect images to be real, unaltered and not misleading, and ads must not target under-18s. Your agency should build consent into the workflow.
Should a plastic surgeon hire a specialist agency or a general SEO agency?
A specialist knows the procedures, the patients and the advertising rules, which saves time and reduces risk. A strong generalist can still do well if it measures consultations properly and has the surgeon review clinical content. Whichever you pick, ask for its process for medical review and how it reports results.
Our verdict
Pick SEO Engico if you want plastic surgery SEO run as part of a measured revenue system, with consultations traced to the searches behind them and links and AI search included in the retainer. Choose Rosemont Media for market exclusivity and a clear price range, Etna Interactive if lead handling and staff training are part of the problem, Plastic Surgery Studios for a long-standing aesthetic specialist, Influx if you want a design-led rebuild with in-house photography, and Studio 3 Marketing if your leads arrive but too few become consultations.
