CallPad answers your laser clinic phone mid-treatment, books consults and sessions with the right provider, and sends suitability questions to your staff.

CallPad is an AI receptionist for laser hair removal clinics. It answers the calls you can't take mid-treatment, answers questions about your services, prices and hours from the wording you approve, and books, moves and cancels consultations and sessions in your booking system with the provider the client asks for. Suitability, skin and reaction questions go to your staff, never the AI.

Why do laser clinics miss calls?

Laser sessions need the provider's full attention, and many clinics run without a dedicated front desk. Calls come in during treatments and in the evening, when people are planning their next session.

Voicemail doesn't catch much of what you miss. In a survey of US consumers, only 42% said they leave a voicemail when a business doesn't answer, and 21% said they immediately call another business (CallRail, 2025). For salons and spas, Zenoti reports that only 24% of callers who reach voicemail leave a message (Zenoti, 2025).

For the sales side of these calls, read how to close laser hair removal packages on the booking call.

What does CallPad do on a laser clinic call?

  • Books consultations. CallPad can book consultation appointment types, so a new client gets a consult on the calendar instead of a callback.
  • Handles patch tests. CallPad handles skin tests, including laser patch tests.
  • Books, moves and cancels sessions in real time, with the provider the client asks for and the right appointment length.
  • CallPad can take a deposit on the call, either by texting a payment link or using a card on file in your booking system. You set the policy.
  • Answers questions about your services, prices, hours and location, from the information you approve.
  • Sends missed-call text-backs, so a caller who doesn't get through still hears from you.
  • Speaks your clients' languages. CallPad speaks English, French, Greek, Spanish, Portuguese, German and many more languages.
  • CallPad keeps treatment details out of reminder and confirmation texts.

Do suitability and reaction questions go to your staff?

Yes, and you decide where the line sits. You tell CallPad which questions to pass on, such as whether a treatment suits a caller's skin or hair, medications, or a reaction after a session. CallPad can transfer the call to a team member or take a message. With a message, your team gets an email saying what the caller wanted.
