The platform uses generative AI and computer vision to visualize patients’ aesthetic outcomes and match them with board-certified plastic surgeons.
Bliss Aesthetics announced it raised $17.5 million in a seed funding round to grow its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered platform that connects patients with board-certified plastic surgeons.
Shine Capital led the financing, followed by Synchrony Ventures, Sheva Ventures, Point72 Ventures, and Cerca Partners.
Using GenAI, Stable Diffusion, and computer vision models, Bliss’ platform is designed to visualize patients’ cosmetic enhancements and match the patient with a board-certified physician. The platform also provides information about potential financing partners to create a seamless experience. Further, the platform improves conversion rates by up to 40%, according to a release from Bliss Aesthetics.
“This funding will give us the ability to harness the momentum we are experiencing, building on the 500% growth of our provider base in our patient-to-physician app since our launch while expanding to five new states across the country,” says Gal Yosef, Bliss’ co-founder and CEO, in a release. “By combining intelligent matchmaking with AI tools, we equip patients to make informed, confident, and financially savvy decisions and give doctors the ability to deliver better outcomes to more patients with less administrative burden.”
Celebrity doctor and board-certified plastic surgeon Michael Salzhauer, MD, who co-founded the platform and serves as chief medical officer, adds in a release, “Through working firsthand in the industry, I’ve seen the need for a seamless consumer platform like Bliss. For physicians, the next-generation platform streamlines patient management and positions surgeons to deliver more precise patient outcomes and improve satisfaction.”
Mo Koyfman, founder and general partner at Shine Capital, adds in a release, “We love investing in areas undergoing a radical shift in consumer perceptions and behavior. Cosmetic surgery is an area driven by demographics, and building technology tools to serve patients and providers helps the market develop while ensuring the highest-quality experience.”
The Bliss Aesthetics platform is available to patients across Florida, Texas, Illinois, Arizona, Michigan, and North Carolina.
