How we may use and disclose your PHI

We use and disclose your PHI to provide, coordinate, or manage your aesthetic and medical care. For example, your provider may review your medical history before performing a treatment, or consult with another provider on your behalf.

For healthcare operations

We may use your PHI to evaluate the quality of care you receive, train providers, and conduct general business activities.

Other allowed uses

• Appointment reminders — by phone, text, or email.
• Treatment options and health-related benefits we think may interest you.
• As required by law — including for public health reporting, law enforcement, or judicial proceedings.
• To business associates — vendors who help us operate (booking platform, billing, IT) under written agreements that require them to protect your PHI.

Uses requiring your written authorization

• Use of your before-and-after photos for marketing.
• Sale of your PHI.

• Request amendments if you believe information in your record is incorrect or incomplete.
• Request an accounting of disclosures we have made, subject to certain exceptions.
• Request restrictions on uses or disclosures for treatment, payment, or operations. We are not required to agree, but will if required by law.
