Counted a different way — by share of every business name MENTION rather than every answer (so one answer naming two of the top 3 counts twice here) — the top 3 names account for 16% of the 188 mentions recorded across 54 answers.

Is there one aesthetic clinic AI recommends in Malaysia?
Closer to yes than in dental clinics, the only other category we've measured this way. Across 54 answers about aesthetic clinics in Kuala Lumpur, Bangsar, Mont Kiara, Penang and Johor Bahru, one name led clearly: Premier Clinic, named in 27.8% of answers — about 1.7 times its nearest competitor, Kaiteki Skin Aesthetic Clinic, at 16.7%. Still, 113 different clinics were named in total, and 71% of them (80 of 113) were named only once.
What does a leader like Premier Clinic mean for other aesthetic clinics?
That consensus is possible in this category, but it's concentrated at the very top rather than spread across a shortlist. Past the first two or three names, the field looks as open as dental clinics do elsewhere on this site — a long tail of clinics named once or twice each, decided answer by answer rather than defaulted to. If your clinic isn't showing up yet, you're not up against a category AI has already settled; you're up against one name that currently has a real lead, and a wide-open field behind it.
Why does this page report 54 answers instead of 60?
We ran 20 prompts, three times each, planning 60 answers. The last two prompts on our list — "best clinic for melasma and pigmentation Bangsar" and "walk-in aesthetic clinic near me Mont Kiara for a quick botox top up" — failed on all three of their repeats at the end of the run, when our OpenAI account hit its quota limit; those six failed calls, not a modelling choice, mean those two prompts produced zero answers and are excluded rather than padded, which is why the method below shows 18 prompts, not 20. The other 18 prompts completed in full, for 54 recorded answers. One of those 54 also failed to parse into business names — a separate, one-off extraction error — so it counts toward the 54 but contributed no clinic name. Every percentage on this page is a share of those 54 recorded answers.

Frequently asked questions
How did you work out which clinics AI recommends?
We asked AI assistants the questions a patient would actually type, repeated each question several times because AI answers vary between runs, and recorded every clinic named. The exact number of questions, repeats, which AI model(s) were used, and the run date are shown on this page.
My clinic is not listed. Does that mean AI never mentions it?
Not necessarily. It means AI did not name your clinic for the specific questions and locations we tested. Outside the clear leader at the top of this scan, most of the 113 clinics that were named only came up once or twice, so being left off a list this fragmented says little either way. A free AI Visibility Score checks your clinic directly, against the questions your own patients are asking.
