What ZO Skin Centre does

ZO Skin Centre (Houston) is a single-location, physician-led medical aesthetics clinic operating under the ZO Skin Health brand ecosystem. Founded and medically directed by Dr. Mark Khorsandi, the clinic delivers a plan-first model in which every consultation produces a written, sequenced treatment plan combining in-office procedures — injectable wrinkle relaxers and fillers (BOTOX, Dysport, Daxxify, Juvéderm, Sculptra, KYBELLA, Skinvive, PRP), laser and energy-based treatments (Lumecca IPL, Morpheus8, Forma, AviClear, Vasculaze, Votiva), chemical peels including physician-performed controlled depth peels, HydraFacial, AquaGold, microneedling, and PDO threads — with prescribed ZO Skin Health home care protocols designed by Dr. Zein Obagi.

The clinic serves individual consumers in the greater Houston metropolitan area, with primary targeting of affluent submarkets including River Oaks, Memorial, Upper Kirby, Tanglewood, The Heights, Bellaire, West University, and Montrose. Customer acquisition leans on physician-led consultations (offered complimentary), an extensive educational content library, neighborhood-specific SEO landing pages, a Skin Quiz lead-capture tool, and word-of-mouth referrals from existing patients.

The business operates three revenue streams: (1) medical aesthetic treatments priced by area or session with series-based pricing for lasers and PRP, (2) ZO Skin Health product sales via the shop.houstonskinhealth.com e-commerce storefront, and (3) recurring memberships for HydraFacial maintenance, injectable refresh cycles, and combined skin maintenance programs. The clinic is a privately held, founder-led practice within the ZO Skin Health, Inc. corporate family (California, USA), with no disclosed outside institutional investment.
