For med spas in the USA

A med spa website clients can actually book on

Your own branded site in USD and your time zone. Clients browse facials, laser and injectables, get answers after hours, and pick a real open time with the provider they want.

Assistant and booking · Demo clinic

A med spa menu is wide. One client wants a hydrating facial on her lunch break, another is comparing laser prices across three spas, and a third has seen a Reel about lip filler and wants to know who does the injections. Each of them expects to find answers and book from their phone, often after your front desk has gone home.

Velvet Lead builds your med spa website and sets up the booking, AI assistant, lead inbox and reminders behind it. We set everything up for you: treatments, prices, providers, schedules and the assistant's knowledge. Your team gets one admin panel instead of a website, a booking app and a spreadsheet of Instagram leads.

Where med spas lose clients

  • Instagram buzz, no idea what booked

    You boost a post about a facial special and the DMs roll in. A month later you still can't tell whether that post produced booked appointments or just likes.

  • After-hours questions nobody sees

    “Do you have anything for a facial Saturday morning?” arrives at 10 PM. By the time someone checks the inbox, the client has booked with the spa that answered.

  • Injectables mixed into a spa calendar

    Facials are quick to book. Injectables need the right licensed provider and often a consultation first. One generic calendar makes it easy to put a new injectable client in the wrong slot.

How Velvet Lead helps

How Velvet Lead runs a med spa's front door

Set up for a menu that runs from facials to injectables, and for clients who book on their phones.

  • Every Instagram campaign tagged

    Add UTM source, medium and campaign tags to your bio link and ad links. Each inquiry and booking in the lead inbox keeps its tag, so you can see which campaign brought which clients.

    Lead inbox: how it works
  • Open times shown in your time zone

    Clients see only genuinely open times for their chosen provider, in your clinic's time zone, with daylight saving time handled. Eastern, Central, Mountain or Pacific, it follows your settings.

    Online booking: how it works
  • Answers at 10 PM, grounded in your menu

    The AI assistant answers from your services, prices, providers, hours and current offers. Ask it about Saturday and it checks live availability and links to the booking page. It never books on its own and gives no medical advice.

    AI assistant: how it works
  • Injectables routed by provider

    Assign injectables only to the providers who perform them, and mark filler and other injectables as consultation required. Facials and laser sessions stay bookable with the estheticians and laser staff you choose.

    Admin panel: how it works
  • Email plus WhatsApp for clients who opt in

    Confirmed appointments get email confirmations and reminders. Clients who opt in when they book also get WhatsApp messages. If an appointment moves or is canceled, the old reminder is dropped.

AI assistant

What med spa clients ask the assistant

It answers from your service menu, prices, FAQs, offers and uploaded documents such as a price list or aftercare sheet. Anything it can't answer is logged for you, with a callback request offered.

  • Do you have anything for a HydraFacial this Saturday morning?
  • How much is lip filler, and who does it?
  • Do you sell gift cards?
  • Is there a first-visit special right now?
  • What's your cancellation policy?
  • Can I stop retinol before a chemical peel?

Demo clinic assistant

Answers from the clinic's own information

Example conversation
  1. Patient:

    Any openings for a facial Saturday morning?

  2. Assistant:

    Yes, there are open times for a signature facial this Saturday morning. Pick one and confirm your details on the booking page.

    • 9:00 AM
    • 10:15 AM
    • 11:30 AM
  3. Patient:

    Should I stop my retinol before a peel?

  4. Assistant:

    That's a question for one of the providers, since it depends on your skin and products. You can call the spa, or I can send a callback request to the team.

Settings

Settings med spas usually choose

Chosen once during setup. Your site, booking flow and messages all use them.

Currency and time zone

USD, your local US time zone

Prices show in dollars and every booking time, reminder and “tomorrow” in the assistant follows your time zone, including daylight saving changes.

What staff are called

Practitioners or clinicians

Pick the word that fits a team of estheticians, nurses and injectors. The whole site uses it consistently.

Consultation required

On for filler, off for facials

Set per service, so a facial stays bookable online while filler starts with a consultation.

Confirmation mode

Instant confirmation

Many med spas want facials locked in right away. If you'd rather review every request, choose manual and unconfirmed requests expire after the hours you set.

Cancellation window

Your policy, for example 24 hours

Clients cancel through their private manage link within the window, which reopens the slot for someone else.

Reminder timing

Your choice, for example the day before

Reminders only go to confirmed appointments: by email, by WhatsApp for clients who opted in, and by text for clients who asked for one.

Packages and vouchers yes, memberships not yet

A course of treatments is sold at your desk and counted down by the system: sessions used, sessions left, a canceled appointment giving its session back, and the price frozen at the sale so a rise later never changes what somebody already bought. See courses and packages.

Gift vouchers are sold at your desk or on your website through your spa's own Stripe account, and they are spendable across several visits rather than used up all at once. A treatment can also carry a deposit that clients pay on Stripe's secure page when they book, with the rest paid at the spa.

What Velvet Lead still doesn't do is memberships or recurring billing. A course is paid for once, not monthly. You can describe a membership program in your FAQs or on your pricing page so the assistant can explain it, but sign-ups and billing stay with the system you use today. If memberships are the center of your business model, tell us on the demo call so we can give you a straight answer before you commit.

Lot numbers, stock and what expires next

Your injectors already write the product, lot number and dose onto every treatment record. Stock control uses that: where the product and batch match something your spa stocks, the level comes down by itself, and nothing is guessed at when it doesn't match.

Every movement is kept, so a level is a sum you can explain rather than a number somebody typed into a cell. One screen shows what is left, what is below its reorder level and what expires soon, which is a better place to find that out than with a client already in the chair.

Because batches are recorded on the treatment note, the awkward question about a particular lot has an answer that doesn't involve reading back through handwritten charts.

Reasons to come back

Vouchers sell around the holidays, and they bring you people who have never heard of your spa. Points do the opposite job: they are for the clients you already have, and they are optional and off until you switch them on.

Points are earned on completed visits only, so a no-show earns nothing, and a visit paid for by a course earns nothing extra because the course was already the discount. Every point in and out carries its reason, so your front desk can read a balance back rather than guessing at it.

Clients see their own appointments, what is left on a course, their points and their referral code on their own account page, signed in with a link emailed to the address you already write to. Nothing clinical appears on it, on purpose: a medical record is read with a provider, not alone on a phone.

Honest fit

Is Velvet Lead right for your med spa?

Right for you if…

  • Clients book one-to-one appointments with a provider
  • You operate one med spa location
  • You want to see which Instagram campaigns turn into booked clients
  • You want facials, laser and injectables bookable on your own branded website

Not right yet if…

  • You sell memberships or bill clients monthly (a course is paid for once, not monthly)
  • You need full payment of a treatment bill, or a card on file at booking (deposits and gift vouchers only)
  • You want no-show fees charged to a card automatically (the fee is recorded and settled at the desk)
  • You need two-way texting or a Spanish-language site
  • You have several locations under one website

FAQ

Med spas: common questions

Can clients buy a membership on our website?

No. There are no memberships and no recurring billing. What you can sell is a course of treatments, paid for once at your desk and counted down by the system, and gift vouchers, at the desk or on your website through your own Stripe account. A membership program itself stays with the system you use today.

Does Velvet Lead send text message reminders?

Yes. Clients who ask for a text when they book get an SMS reminder through Twilio, once your spa switches SMS on. It's reminders only: no two-way texting or marketing texts.

How does daylight saving time affect bookings?

Availability, confirmations and reminders use your clinic's time zone and account for US daylight saving changes, so a 9 AM appointment stays 9 AM local time.

Can we see which Instagram ad brought a client in?

Yes, if your links carry UTM tags. Each lead keeps its source, medium and campaign, links to any booking it became, and reports break results down by campaign.

Can only certain providers do injectables?

Yes. You choose which treatments each team member performs, so clients booking injectables only see providers who do them, within each provider's own schedule.

Can our marketing agency see the leads?

Add people to the team list with the admin, manager, practitioner or front desk role, and remove access at any time. Each role only sees what it allows, and only practitioners and admins can read clinical records.

Can we sell gift cards for the holidays?

Yes, as gift vouchers: sold at your desk or on your website through your own Stripe account. A voucher only becomes spendable once the payment has landed, it can be spent across several visits, and the balance is always what is left.

Can we charge clients who no-show?

You can record a fee and settle it at the spa. The fee is recorded the moment a visit is marked missed, or canceled late by the client, and a deposit already paid can be kept against it. Velvet Lead doesn't keep card details, so nothing is charged automatically.

Will it tell us when a product is running low?

Yes. Each product has a reorder level and each batch has an expiry date, and the treatment record your injector already writes takes the batch out of stock by itself. One screen shows what is low and what expires soon.
