In today’s competitive medical aesthetics industry, high-quality before & after images are essential for building credibility and engaging potential clients. Whether for patient documentation, social media, or marketing, stunning before-and-after photos can transform your practice’s growth. With RxPhoto’s advanced app features, you don’t need expensive equipment to achieve professional results. Here are six tips to help you take exceptional medical photos with just your smartphone.
1. Ensure You Have Consistent Lighting
Lighting is key to clear, consistent medical photos. We recommend having a designated area in your practice where you can set up your lighting or light ring, ensuring consistency for each B&A photo.
2. Keep Your Lens and Camera Clean
Before snapping photos, always clean your smartphone camera lens. Dust and smudges can cause blurry images and distort the treatment’s outcome.
3. Use a Professional Backdrop for Clean, Consistent Images
To create a clean and polished look, choose a plain colored backdrop, such as blue or black. A simple, consistent background helps emphasize your work, letting the patient’s transformation shine.
4. Use RxPhoto’s On-Screen Guides for Perfect Photo Placement
RxPhoto’s app includes a series of on-screen guides, to walk you through photo sequences for any part of the face and/or body, whether its lips, breast, abdomen, etc. This feature creates true standardization for all before & after photos.
5. Manually Adjust Focus and Exposure
Smartphones tend to auto-adjust focus and exposure. Tap the screen to manually focus on critical areas and adjust exposure for clarity. This level of precision helps capture the exact outcome of procedures, ensuring the most important details stand out.
6. Showcase Clinical Results with RxPhoto’s Built-In Tools
From ghosting, morphing, extender tools, and overlays, RxPhoto comes with several built-in features to assist with showcasing your practice’s before & after photos when you are in the treatment or consultation room with a patient.
By utilizing RxPhoto’s smart features and following these practical tips, you’ll capture stunning medical photos that help grow your practice.
