How we cite

We prefer primary sources (CDC / NCHS, U.S. Census Bureau, ABA, FBI UCR, Migration Policy Institute, Clio Legal Trends, Institute for Legal Reform, peer-reviewed studies) wherever they exist. First-party pricing, product details, and operational timelines are not treated as third-party research claims. When the best available source is an industry publisher or marketing-research roundup, we link to it directly so you can evaluate it. If you spot a stat on our site that isn't listed here, or a citation you think we got wrong, email sales@medspadome.com and we'll fix it.
