Plastic surgery patients take their time and choose very carefully. We build ads around trust in the surgeon, honest information and consultation bookings, while following Google's strict healthcare policies.
Plastic Surgery Clinics We group searches by intent: high-intent queries go into separate campaigns with higher bids, informational ones become negative keywords or content.
Weeks or months pass between the first search and surgery: the patient watches videos, reads reviews and goes to several consultations. Ads need to support this journey, and analytics needs to connect the surgery back to the first click.
The strongest argument for patients — photos of results — is restricted in Google ads, and body images easily fall under sexual content policies. Trust has to be built with copy, videos featuring the surgeon and a detailed procedure page.
Some patients compare clinics in different cities and countries and care only about price. If the clinic competes on surgeon experience rather than discounts, searches like “cheapest” and “discount” need to be cut out.
Patients choose a person, not a clinic brand. Searches with the surgeon's name, their videos and reviews often matter more than general advertising, so the surgeon's personal brand is worth protecting and developing.
Every campaign has its own role. We set the order and budget after analyzing demand in your city and your competitors.
Campaigns for specific procedures with dedicated pages about stages, limitations and recovery, plus protection of the surgeon's brand searches.
How it works 02Videos with the surgeon about procedures and recovery — the main trust-building tool in a long decision cycle.
How it works 03Reach on YouTube, Discover and Gmail with content about the consultation and the surgeon — aimed at broad audiences, without health-based targeting.
How it worksThis is just one variation. In a responsive search ad, we write up to 15 headlines and 4 descriptions, and Google assembles the best combination for each search.
Ad descriptions
Exam, a frank talk about expectations and limits, and a surgery and recovery plan.
Preliminary assessment from photos online, then an in-person consult. Pick a time.
Automated bid strategies learn from the data we feed them. That’s why we only count actions that lead to sales.
Demand seasonality
Surgeries are traditionally planned for the colder season: in fall and winter it's easier to recover, wear compression garments and avoid the sun, while demand weakens in summer. Research and consultations often start several months before surgery, so ads should launch well in advance.
Google Ads restrictions in this niche
Plastic surgery is one of the most sensitive topics in Google Ads. What we take into account: before-and-after photos and images of nude or partially nude bodies are restricted under sexual content policies and can be disapproved; images of surgery, stitches and swelling are a risk under shocking content policies; promises of results or “risk-free surgery” are unreliable claims. Personalized advertising in sensitive health categories is restricted, so remarketing to visitors of procedure pages and Customer Match may be unavailable, and Google doesn't allow personalized targeting of minors at all. That's why we work through Search by procedure name, videos with the surgeon, contextual targeting and broad audiences. We also review the landing pages, since the policies apply to them too.
We identify priority procedures, the surgeon's strengths and key patient objections, and prepare a dedicated page for each procedure.
GA4, GTM, call tracking, inquiry and messenger events, Consent Mode v2, and import of consultations and surgeries from the CRM, so you can see the impact of ads over a horizon of months.
We check copy, images and pages for compliance with healthcare and sexual content policies before launch, to avoid disapprovals and account restrictions.
We compare searches and campaigns by the number of surgeries, not just inquiries, and gradually add video and Demand Gen for people who are still choosing a surgeon.
Answers to the questions business owners ask most often before launch.
In Google ads, this is a high-risk area: body photos often fall under sexual content restrictions, and showing results falls under unreliable claims policies. We build trust through copy, videos with the surgeon and a page with a detailed description of the procedure. We also review the results gallery on your website, because the policies apply to landing pages too.
We split the tasks: Search captures people who are already choosing a surgeon, while YouTube and Demand Gen keep in touch with those still researching. A longer conversion window and importing surgeries from the CRM show which ads actually brought the patient in.
Remarketing in healthcare topics is restricted by personalized advertising policies, and ads can't imply that you know about a person's intention to have surgery. That's why we build repeat contact through brand searches, video and contextual placements rather than banners that “follow” people around.
A search like “rhinoplasty cost” is a normal stage of choosing, so the page should explain what makes up the cost and what aftercare is included. But searches like “cheapest” or “discount” we usually add as negative keywords if the clinic competes on surgeon experience rather than price.
Yes, and it's often effective: patients search for specific surgeons after seeing videos or getting recommendations. We create a separate campaign for the surgeon's name and a page with their education, experience and videos, and make sure other clinics don't intercept traffic on these searches.
