Skincare Clinic Booking System: Consultations, Patch Tests and Treatment Spacing

A skincare clinic booking system has to do more than show free slots: it must send new clients to a consultation first, put a patch test in before the first peel, and refuse to book treatments too close together. Describe your treatments and rules to Mythex and it builds the booking system with those rules and an admin view for reception.

Who it's for

Clinics booking by phone and Instagram message, keeping treatment history in a filing cabinet, and relying on reception to remember that a client cannot have another peel before next month.

What you can build

Consultation-first booking for new clients
Patch tests scheduled a set time before the first peel
Minimum gaps between peels or microneedling sessions
Practitioners booked only for treatments they are trained in
Device rooms booked alongside the practitioner
Contraindication questions flagged for the practitioner

Put the rules in the booking, not in memory

Clients will try to book the next peel early before a wedding. If the system simply does not offer slots inside the minimum interval, reception never has to argue. Give each treatment its duration, the gap required since the last session, whether a patch test is needed and how long before, and whether a consultation must come first.

People, rooms and devices

A clinic may have one microneedling pen or one laser room. Book the device or room with the practitioner, add cleaning or cooldown time between clients, and only offer treatments to practitioners certified for them. When a trained practitioner is off sick, the admin view shows which bookings nobody else can cover.

Questions to ask at booking

Ask new clients their main concern, current skincare and medications, and flag answers such as pregnancy, recent retinoid use or a recent tan for the practitioner to review before the visit. Link the medical history and consent form so they arrive completed.

Mistakes to avoid

Do not let clients book any treatment as a first visit. Do not forget to include course sessions remaining in the booking, so clients on a course see their next session due. And take a deposit for new-client consultations on busy evenings to cut no-shows.

A prompt to start from

Build a booking system for my skincare clinic. Treatments: consultation (30 min), facial (60 min), chemical peel (45 min, patch test at least 48 hours before, minimum 4 weeks between peels), microneedling (60 min, minimum 6 weeks between, needs the device room). New clients must book a consultation first. Practitioners are only offered treatments they are trained for. Ask about pregnancy, medications and retinoid use, and give reception a daily view.

Questions

Can it require a consultation before the first treatment?

Yes. New clients can only book a consultation, and treatments open up once it is recorded.

Can it stop clients booking peels too close together?

Yes. Set a minimum interval per treatment and the system will not offer slots inside it.

Can I take deposits?

Yes, for consultations or new clients. Online card payments need a payment provider connected with your own account.

Can clients get reminders?

The app can schedule reminders. Sending them by email or text needs a provider you connect yourself.

How much does it cost?

The Free plan needs no card and gives daily credits to build and publish. Pro is $25/month and adds a custom domain, code editing, export and GitHub.
