Fewer missed consultations: setting clear expectations for medspa clients

A missed consultation is often a sign of uncertainty, not disinterest. Clear communication before the appointment helps clients show up ready.

Explain the consultation

Clients who know what will happen, who they'll meet, how long it lasts, whether there's a fee, arrive more confident. Put that information on your website and in the booking confirmation.

Remind with purpose

A reminder that includes parking details, what to bring, and an easy way to ask questions feels like service. Agree on timing and wording with your team.

Make rescheduling simple

When plans change, a client should be able to reschedule in one step. A hard-to-change appointment often becomes a missed one.
