From sticky notes → to smart systems.

Most med spas think they have a revenue problem…
but it's actually a hidden COGS leak draining margins.

From Sticky Notes to Smart Systems: The Modern Med Spa Inventory Playbook
📍 July 11 | 2:10–2:50 PM

He's breaking down:
• Why inventory problems scale faster than your business
• Where margins are quietly being lost (price leakage, over-usage, shrinkage)
• What 1,000+ med spa locations are doing differently
• How to move from manual chaos → automated visibility

How do you balance pushing innovation while staying firmly grounded in compliance?

In this moment from Innovation, Ethics, and the Future of Aesthetic Medicine, AmSpa founder Alex Thiersch sits down with Leslie Fletcher, NP-BC, to explore the tension many leaders in aesthetics face: advancing new treatments while ensuring patient safety and regulatory confidence.

As an AmSpa Plus member and Medical Spa Show speaker, Leslie has deep experience in innovation—including patents, trademarks, and work in dermal fillers—Leslie shares why her approach to emerging biologics is rooted in a careful evaluation of the science, research, and legal grounding behind each product before she feels comfortable integrating it into practice.

It’s a candid look at what it means to lead at the intersection of innovation and responsibility in a rapidly evolving field.

What if compliance wasn’t just a requirement—but a competitive advantage?

In this moment from Innovation, Ethics, and the Future of Aesthetic Medicine, AmSpa founder Alex Thiersch sits down with longtime AmSpa member Dr. Kate Dee, MD, to discuss how safety standards and regulatory compliance are evolving into powerful differentiators for modern med spas.

Dr. Dee shares why “doing things the right way” is only the starting point—and how practices that confidently communicate their expertise, licensure, and adherence to best practices can turn compliance into trust, credibility, and real market advantage.

It’s a shift in mindset: from compliance as obligation → to compliance as brand strength.
