Planned Parenthood Starts Doing Botox Injections to Make More Money

Planned Parenthood Mar Monte has begun offering Botox and other cosmetic procedures to offset an approximately $100 million revenue shortfall driven largely by federal Medicaid reimbursement cuts. The move toward elective, fee-for-service cosmetic care is a notable diversification of income sources and could change its patient mix and public scrutiny. Seen alongside urgent cares beginning to offer abortions where clinics have closed, this underscores how reproductive health providers are changing services and business models in response to financial and access pressures, raising further questions about long-term strategy and oversight.
