Summary

Med spas must distinguish between cosmetic services that can often be booked directly and medical aesthetic treatments, such as injectables or prescription-only products, which require practitioner assessment, possible prescribing, documented clinical decisions, and compliance with local regulations. Automated booking systems can identify the type of enquiry, collect availability, send history forms, book consultations, issue reminders, and provide factual logistical information, but they cannot determine suitability, give clinical advice, assess photos, prescribe treatment, or decline clients without practitioner involvement. The text presents CodeWords as a tool for routing enquiries and connecting booking and messaging systems, while emphasizing human review and safeguards for clinical cases. It also highlights stricter advertising restrictions for medical treatments, including possible limits on product names, testimonials, images, and promotions, and identifies aftercare messaging and rapid escalation of reported concerns as especially useful automations. Clinics should enforce valid-assessment requirements through their systems, store clinical records separately from message threads, monitor outcomes, and rely on regulators, insurers, and professional bodies for jurisdiction-specific guidance.
