Med Spa Consultation Booking Script and Follow-Up Texts

A med spa consultation script has to do two things at once: sell the consult as the sensible first step, and get a real time on the calendar before the caller hangs up. The follow-up texts then have to hold that booking, because aesthetic consults are booked far ahead and far-ahead bookings cancel the most. Below is the full phone script (greeting, treatment question, pricing question, hesitation, booking, close), then the exact text sequence for the eight windows that matter: instant confirmation, the day after, one week out, 48 hours, day-of, no-show, post-consult, and no-decision.

Two numbers shape the design. First, 44% of web consultation requests arrive outside business hours, 28% in the evening and 16% overnight, and 7pm is as busy as 9am (KloudMD platform data, Jun to Sep 2026, a sample of over 60,000 inquiries). Second, appointments booked two or more weeks ahead cancelled 12.9% of the time versus 3.9% for same-day bookings, and nearly half of online bookings are two or more weeks out (KloudMD platform data, Sep 2025 to Sep 2026, a sample of about 160,000 appointments). The script books; the texts keep the booking alive.

Part 1: the consultation phone script

Greeting

“Thanks for calling [Spa Name], this is [Name]. Are you calling about a treatment you’ve had with us, or something you’re considering?”

That question splits returning clients from new leads in one line without asking “are you a new patient,” which some callers hear as “do you have an account.”

“I’m interested in Botox / filler / laser. How much is it?”

Do not lead with a number and do not refuse to give one. Give the structure of the price, then move to the consult.

“Happy to walk you through it. For [treatment], pricing depends on the area and how much product you need, so it ranges from about [low] to [high] per session. Our injector sets the exact plan at a consult, which takes about 30 minutes. The consult is [free / $X, credited toward treatment]. Would you like me to find you a consult time this week or next?”

If the caller pushes for a firm price: “I don’t want to quote you a number and have it be wrong in either direction. The consult is where you get the real one, and you’re not committing to anything by coming in.”

“Can I just book the treatment instead of a consult?”

“For a returning client with a plan on file, yes. For a first visit, we book a consult and, if you’re a good candidate and want to proceed, [Injector] can usually treat you the same day. So you’re not losing a visit. Shall I book that as a consult with same-day treatment time held?”

Hesitation: “Let me think about it and call back”

Never argue. Offer a low-commitment hold and ask for texting permission.

“Of course. Can I hold a spot for you so it’s there if you decide? You can cancel by text with no charge up to [policy window]. And is it okay if I text you our before-and-after gallery and the consult details on this number?”

That permission line is the hinge of the whole flow. Without it, you have a lead; with it, you have a text thread.

Booking

“Let’s find a time. Do you prefer mornings, afternoons, or evenings? [Offer two.] I have Wednesday at 4:30 or Saturday at 10:00 with [Injector]. Which works?”

“I’ll need your full name, date of birth, and the best mobile number for confirmations. [If a deposit applies:] We hold consult times with a [amount] card hold that is fully refunded or applied to treatment, and it’s only kept if the appointment is missed without notice.”

Ask for date of birth even for a consult. Spouses and roommates share phones and emails, and a chart matched on phone alone becomes someone else’s chart. Name plus date of birth is the safe match.

Close

“You’re set for [day, time] with [Injector]. You’ll get a confirmation text in a minute with our address and a short intake form. Fill that out when you have five minutes and you’ll skip the paperwork at the front. Anything else I can answer?”

Part 2: the follow-up text sequence

All messages come from the same number the client called. Keep clinical details out of the text body; name the treatment in general terms and put specifics in the intake form.

T0: instant confirmation (within one minute of booking)

Hi [First name], this is [Spa Name]. You're booked for a consultation with [Injector] on [Day, Mon DD] at [time]. Address: [address]. Please complete your intake here: [link]. Reply C to confirm or R to reschedule.

T+1 day: the gallery and the question

This message exists because the caller was thinking about it. Give them a reason to stay booked and an easy way to ask something.

Hi [First name], [Name] from [Spa Name]. Here are a few before-and-afters from [Injector] for the treatment you asked about: [link]. If a question comes up before your consult, just reply here.

One week before (for consults booked 2+ weeks out)

Skip this message for bookings under two weeks out. For everything else, this is the message that catches the 12.9% early enough to refill the slot.

[First name], your consultation with [Injector] is one week from today, [Day] at [time]. Still good? Reply C to confirm or R and we'll find another time.

48 hours before

Reminder: [Spa Name] consult with [Injector] on [Day] at [time]. Arrive 10 min early with a clean face, no makeup on the treatment area if possible. Reply C to confirm or R to reschedule.

Morning of

See you today at [time], [First name]. Parking: [one line]. Text us when you arrive if the door is locked. Running late? Reply here.

No-show (30 minutes after the start time)

No blame, one action. Send this the same day; a next-day message reads as an afterthought.

Hi [First name], we missed you at [time] today. Things happen. Here's the link to grab another consult time this week: [link]. Or reply and we'll book it for you.

Post-consult, treatment not booked (same evening)

[First name], thank you for coming in today. [Injector] wrote up your plan: [link]. When you're ready to schedule, tap here: [link], or reply with days that work. No pressure, and questions are welcome.

No decision after 7 days

One more message, then stop. Reactivation later is a different conversation.

Hi [First name], checking in from [Spa Name]. Your consult plan with [Injector] is saved for you. If you'd like to book, here are the next openings: [link]. If now isn't the right time, just reply and let us know.

When each message should go out

Booked how far ahead	Cancelled	Messages to send
Same day	3.9%	T0 confirmation only
1 to 3 days	7.2%	T0, morning-of
3 to 7 days	6.2%	T0, T+1 gallery, 48-hour, morning-of
1 to 2 weeks	7.5%	T0, T+1 gallery, 48-hour, morning-of
2+ weeks	12.9%	T0, T+1 gallery, one-week, 48-hour, morning-of

Cancellation rates are aggregated, de-identified KloudMD platform data across several hundred medical practices, Sep 2025 to Sep 2026, on a sample of about 160,000 appointments booked online or by the AI or front desk. Across every bucket, the no-show rate with reminders on ran 2.1% to 2.9%, so the sequence above is aimed at cancellations, which are the larger leak.

The after-hours version of the script

With 44% of consult requests arriving after 6pm or before 8am, the script has to run when no one is at the desk. If a live person cannot answer, the minimum is a missed-call text within a minute:

Hi, this is [Spa Name]. Sorry we missed you. To book a consultation with [Injector], tap [link] to see real openings. Or reply with what you're interested in and we'll answer first thing.

If an AI receptionist answers the line, it should follow the same branches above: describe the price structure, offer the consult, offer two real times, collect name and date of birth, and send T0. An answering service that only takes a name does the first half and leaves the booking for the morning, when the lead has cooled.

How KloudMD handles this

KloudMD’s med spa answering service uses Voice AI to answer treatment and pricing calls and book into AestheticsPro, Boulevard, Mindbody, and other aesthetic systems, putting the caller on the injector’s next open slot rather than taking a message. The same agent holds the conversation over two-way texting on the practice number, with missed-call text-back on every line, and voice and text share one patient thread. Online scheduling supports deposits and card-on-file at booking, and reminders with one-tap rebooking run on the same thread. Every consult booked this way collects name and date of birth, not just a phone number.
