WE ARE SPAKINECT
And we’re on a mission to protect the aesthetic industry, its providers and patients.
So far, it seems to be working.
From the Beginning…..
Co-founded by Paulina Riedler and Alain Gazaui, Spakinect was built on a mission to revolutionize the Aesthetic Telehealth industry by prioritizing safety, compliance, and efficiency for healthcare providers and patients alike.
Our journey began with a pivotal moment—an alarming case reported by the Ventura County Star, where a physician and nurse were detained for bypassing required pre-treatment evaluations. This incident exposed a critical gap in regulatory compliance, one that Alain recognized as an opportunity to address through cutting-edge telehealth solutions.
Determined to bridge this gap, they launched Spakinect as a bootstrapped startup, beginning with a dedicated but small team that included only one healthcare provider and a programmer. Today, Spakinect is a trusted industry leader, specializing in Good Faith Evaluations (GFEs) for medical spas and plastic surgery practices, ensuring seamless compliance while enhancing patient care.
With a steadfast commitment to innovation and regulatory adherence, Spakinect continues to shape the future of telehealth in aesthetics, empowering providers with secure, compliant, and efficient solutions.
