Body contouring studios can add GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth referrals by placing a QR code in your studio that sends interested clients to independent licensed providers, then earning a fixed or recurring monthly marketing fee for the introduction. You do no clinical work, hold no inventory, and handle no fulfillment. Here is how the model works and why it fits a body sculpting business.
Why GLP-1 referrals fit body contouring studios
Your clients already came to you to change how their body looks and feels. Many of them have tried to reach a goal weight before they ever booked a session, and a good number are candidates for medically supervised weight management. That makes a body contouring studio one of the most natural places to introduce a GLP-1 weight-loss option, because the conversation about results, maintenance, and long-term change is already happening at your front desk.
Adding telehealth referrals does not change your core service. You still sell packages, run devices, and deliver treatments. The referral simply gives clients a compliant path to explore semaglutide or tirzepatide with a licensed provider when that is the right fit for them. It rounds out what you offer without turning your studio into a clinic.
How the referral flow actually works
The mechanics are simple. MedStands gives you a QR code and marketing assets branded for your studio. You display the code at the counter, in treatment rooms, or on printed cards a client can take home. When a client scans it, they land on a licensed telehealth experience that has nothing to do with your books or your staff.
From there, everything happens off your plate. The client answers health questions, the request is reviewed, and if they qualify, care is delivered and shipped directly to them. You are credited for the introduction. To see the full path from scan to payout, read how the MedStands model turns a QR code into a monthly payout.
Who handles the clinical side
This is the part that keeps you compliant and comfortable: you never touch the medical side at all. Independent licensed providers do the prescribing, and licensed pharmacies handle fulfillment, refills, and shipping. The platform is LegitScript-certified. MedStands is not a medical practice and does not prescribe.
Every request is reviewed by a licensed provider, and not everyone qualifies, which is exactly how a responsible program should work. Your studio does no clinical work, holds no inventory, and handles no fulfillment. You are the introduction, not the provider. If you want the full breakdown, see who handles prescribing and shipping in a referral program and whether you need a medical license to refer customers to telehealth.
What you earn, and what you never pay
You earn a fixed marketing fee that is set in advance. It is not a commission, not a percentage, and not a cut of sales. It is a marketing fee for the referral, structured as either a fixed or recurring monthly amount depending on the program. Because the fee is defined up front, you always know how the arrangement works before a single client scans your code.
It is free to join, with no setup fee and no monthly fee. You are not buying software, stocking product, or taking on risk. The upside is added income from foot traffic you already have, layered onto services you already sell.
We keep earnings talk qualitative on purpose. What you actually receive depends on your studio, your traffic, and how visibly you promote the code. The point is that the marketing fee is predictable and agreed in advance, so there are no surprises.
Partner or affiliate: which path fits your studio
MedStands offers two ways in. A partner arrangement is built for an established business like a body contouring studio, with branded assets and studio-level placement. An affiliate arrangement suits an individual promoter who wants to share a link or code more informally. Both earn a fixed marketing fee for qualified referrals.
Not sure which one fits, read partner versus affiliate: which program fits. You can explore the partner program, the MedStands affiliate program, or browse partner programs by industry to see how other business types run the same model.
Common questions
Do I need a medical license or any clinical training?
No. You are making an introduction, not delivering care. Independent licensed providers review every request and handle prescribing, and licensed pharmacies handle shipping and refills. Your studio never gives medical advice or touches medication.
Does my studio pay anything to join?
No. It is free to join, with no setup fee and no monthly fee. You place a QR code and marketing assets in your studio, and there is nothing to buy or maintain.
Is this a commission or a percentage of what clients spend?
Neither. You earn a fixed marketing fee that is set in advance for qualified referrals, offered as a fixed or recurring monthly amount. It is not a commission, a percentage, or a cut of sales.
What do my clients actually get?
Clients who scan your code get a compliant telehealth experience with independent licensed providers. If they qualify, they may be prescribed semaglutide or tirzepatide and have it shipped from a licensed pharmacy. Not everyone qualifies, and every request is reviewed by a licensed provider.
Ready to add GLP-1 referrals to your studio?
Adding a GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth referral to a body contouring studio is one of the lowest-effort ways to earn from clients you already serve. You do no clinical work, hold no inventory, and pay nothing to start. The licensed providers and pharmacies do the hard part, and you earn a fixed or recurring monthly marketing fee for the introduction.
