Before & After Photo Improvements
My practice is experiencing challenges due to the absence of features allowing zooming and pitching of photos for before-and-after comparisons. Additionally, we encounter difficulties in importing photos from the patient gallery into our charting system because the system simply does not allow it. To address this issue, I've resorted to subscribing to a PICSART account, which appears counterintuitive and costly as I have to pay for a subscription just for photos. These functionalities should ideally be integrated within Boulevard. While I acknowledge that Boulevard is primarily optimized for salons, it's crucial to recognize that in our aesthetic practice, the presentation of our results significantly impacts our credibility and fosters trust with our patients. Currently, the absence of these capabilities within Boulevard prolongs the process of creating before-and-after comparisons, extending it to approximately 10 minutes. Which cuts into my practice revenue per hour. When can I expect this feature added?

We should absolutely be able to do all of this. Thank you for bring this up.

Hi Boulevard team,
I wanted to share a feature suggestion that I think would make a huge difference for providers. I recently switched from Aesthetic Record, and one of the best features that system offers is the integrated photo upload workflow during patient check-in.
In Aesthetic Record, once a patient checks in, the system automatically prompts staff to take photo, it’s built into the intake flow so the front desk never forgets. This is extremely helpful for compliance and consistency, especially in aesthetic practices where before-and-after documentation is critical.
Another key feature that would be incredible to have in Boulevard is photo templates. In Aesthetic Record, the camera interface includes guides/outlines (for example, front view, ¾ angle, 90°) that show where the eyes, nose, and lips should align. It helps maintain consistent angles, lighting, and framing across visits, something providers rely on to accurately track progress and show patients their results.
Lastly, the ability to organize photos by procedure and compare side-by-side (for example, “before first treatment” and “after second treatment,” with matching angles) makes it easy to present results to patients and for chart documentation.
This kind of visual structure is not just convenient, it’s essential for aesthetic documentation and patient satisfaction. I’d love to see Boulevard add this functionality or something similar to the roadmap.

It would be nice to have a photo app system that allows you to take photos of your patients and it will upload them into the patients chart. It will also have features to mirror images for before and after images

Have the ability to take photos horizontally and vertically and do a comparison that fills the screen to make the photos fit the size of the ipad or be able to zoom in and make it bigger. This is because we take a lot of before and after's and would love to show the client the comparisons but they are too small at the moment to truly see the differences. We are currently having to use a different app to create the comparisons and then upload to boulevard.
