How We Verify Clinic Data

How we source and verify aesthetic clinic data

Collecting data for an aesthetic clinic directory presents challenges that do not exist for other medical niches. Product brands vary between clinics, treatment names differ for identical procedures, and pricing structures differ significantly between injectable treatments and energy-based devices. Best Aesthetics Bali has developed a verification approach that accounts for these complexities. Here is how we gather, standardise, and maintain the clinic information you see.

How Aesthetic Clinics Are Selected

Clinics are included in the Best Aesthetics Bali directory when they meet the following requirements:

  • The clinic has an active, verified Google Maps listing with genuine patient reviews
  • The clinic specialises in or prominently offers aesthetic treatments (injectables, lasers, skin therapies, or similar)
  • The clinic has English-language communication capabilities and regularly serves international visitors
  • The clinic operates from a verified physical address in Bali

Default rankings combine Google rating, review volume, and data completeness. Sponsored placements, when present, are clearly marked and do not influence the default order. No clinic can pay to be delisted. Clinics requesting removal are removed promptly.

How Aesthetic Prices Are Verified

Aesthetic pricing requires more nuanced handling than dental pricing. Injectable treatments are priced per unit, per area, or per syringe depending on the clinic, and the specific product brand (such as Botox vs Dysport, or Juvederm vs Restylane) affects the cost. Energy device treatments like laser or HIFU may be priced per session, per zone, or as packages. We record pricing as published by the clinic and note the unit of measurement wherever it is specified.

Our verification steps for aesthetic clinic pricing:

  1. We locate the clinic's published price list or treatment menu on their official website or social media
  2. We record prices in IDR as listed, noting units and any package structures
  3. We identify which product brands the clinic uses for injectables where this information is published
  4. We verify that the treatments listed align with the clinic's promoted service offering
  5. We log the source and verification date for internal records

Clinics that do not publish pricing online are shown with "Contact for pricing" on their listing.

Aesthetic pricing note: Injectable prices in particular can change when clinics switch product suppliers or adjust unit pricing. The brand and formulation of the product used affects both the price and the clinical outcome. Always confirm the exact product, dosage, and current price directly with the clinic before booking.

How Practitioner Credentials Are Checked

Where clinics publish staff profiles, we note whether the practitioners listed hold relevant credentials such as medical degrees (for doctor-led clinics) or certified aesthetic training. We do not independently verify registration status with Indonesian medical authorities. The credential information shown on clinic listings is sourced from each clinic's own published materials. Patients seeking specific treatments should confirm the treating practitioner's qualifications and experience directly with the clinic before proceeding.

How Ratings Are Sourced

Google Maps ratings and review counts are the basis for all clinic ratings shown on Best Aesthetics Bali. We do not create, adjust, or filter these ratings. The figure shown reflects the clinic's Google Maps standing at the time of our most recent data refresh. We use Google review volume as one factor in the ranking formula alongside rating score and listing completeness.

How Currency Conversions Work

All prices are stored in IDR and converted to your selected currency using live exchange rates from a third-party API. Displayed amounts in AUD, SGD, or USD are approximate. Currency fluctuations between the time you browse and the time you pay will affect the final amount charged. Your bank or card provider may also apply their own conversion margin.

What a Listing Confirms

An aesthetic clinic listing on Best Aesthetics Bali confirms:

  • The clinic has a verified Google Maps presence with patient reviews
  • Treatment prices are sourced from the clinic's published materials at the verification date shown
  • Google rating and review count are accurate as of the last update
  • Product brands listed are those the clinic has publicly associated with their services

A listing does NOT confirm:

  • We recommend or endorse the clinic over others in the directory
  • We have visited or inspected the clinic's facilities in person
  • Quoted prices are guaranteed at the time of your appointment
  • Treatment outcomes will match those described on the clinic's own marketing materials

How to Report Errors

If a price shown does not match what you were quoted, a product brand is listed incorrectly, or a clinic has changed its services, please notify us via our contact form. All reports are investigated and listings are updated promptly.
